“This was a great tour, jam-packed with information. My guide, Moxira, grew up in the Ichan Qala (her parents still live there), so she had an insider,'s perspective. Her knowledge was quite detailed. She met me right on time at my hotel and has a pleasant personality that adds to the enjoyment of the tour. Would definitely recommend.”
