Designed to combine historic depth with modern comfort, this trip covers the country’s most celebrated UNESCO World Heritage sites, majestic madrasahs, and lively bazaars. You will begin in Tashkent, Uzbekistan’s capital, before taking an internal flight west to Khiva, an intact walled citadel that feels frozen in time. Journey across the dramatic landscapes of the Kyzylkum Desert to reach Bukhara, a holy city renowned for its ancient trading domes and Islamic scholarship.

Sun, science and mountain air. This private day trip takes you into the Parkent district of Tashkent Province, where solar science and the green foothills of the Chimgan Mountains sit side by side. We pick you up from your Tashkent hotel at 10:00, and your guide and driver look after only your group all day. The Physics-Sun Heliocomplex. The first stop is the Physics-Sun Heliocomplex and its solar furnace, a research centre devoted to solar energy technology. Your guide explains how the site works and how Uzbekistan is exploring renewable energy, with time to walk around and take photos. Village life in Kumushkon. Next we visit Kumushkon, an eco-tourism village set against the mountains, and its local mosque. It is a short, gentle stop that shows how people live in the Parkent foothills, and a good moment for photos and questions. Forest and waterfall at Sukok. The longest stop of the day is Sukok, a recreational area of pine, oak and juniper forest in the Chimgan Mountains. You have about an hour and a half for walking in the cool shade and visiting the small waterfall, before the drive back to Tashkent. Good to know.

Old Tashkent, new Tashkent. This full day shows you Tashkent the way locals live it: a madrasah, the city's great bazaar, a plov lunch, the metro, a museum of crafts and a modern park. We pick you up from your hotel at 09:00, and your guide links each stop into one story about the city. Kukaldash and Chorsu. We start at the Kukaldash Madrasah, built in the 16th century under the Shaybanid dynasty as a school of Islamic learning, with lofty arches and fine tilework. Next door is Chorsu Bazaar, under its turquoise dome: an hour among spices, fresh produce, bread and crafts, with your guide explaining the local food traditions. Plov at Besh Qozon.

Khiva Private Classic Full-Day Tour
A whole day inside the walls. We collect you from your hotel in Khiva at 09:00 and spend the day in and around Itchan Kala, the walled old town. It is a private tour, so your guide follows your pace, and an hour at the start is spent simply getting your bearings among the walls, gates and minarets. Where the khans ruled. At the Kunya Ark, built in the 17th century as the khans' residence and seat of government, you see where Khiva was ruled. Nearby are the Sayeed Alauddin Mausoleum, honouring a 14th-century Sufi scholar, and the small Oq Masjid, the White Mosque, from the 18th century. A forest of wooden columns. The Juma Mosque is one of Khiva's great surprises: a prayer hall held up by rows of carved wooden columns, on a site used for worship for over a thousand years. From there we move on to the 19th-century Allakulikhan Madrasah and the Tosh-Khovli Palace, the "Stone House", built in the 1830s. Saints, wrestlers and the tallest minaret. The day ends at the Pakhlavon Makhmud Mausoleum, resting place of a revered Sufi saint, poet and wrestler, and at the Islom Khoja complex, whose slender minaret is one of the symbols of Khiva. Along the way you also share a meal of Uzbek dishes, included in the price. Good to know.

Tashkent Private Evening & Night Tour with Dinner
Tashkent after dark, just for you. At 18:30 your guide and driver collect you from your hotel in a comfortable private car. This is a private tour, so the evening moves at your pace: linger where the lights are best, skip what you have already seen, and ask as many questions as you like. Domes and courtyards under the lights. We start at the Center of Islamic Civilization, where the great dome and tiled portals glow against the night sky, then continue to Hazrati Imam, the spiritual heart of old Tashkent, for a quiet walk around the square. Old streets and city landmarks. Next we stroll along Zarkaynar Street, known for its traditional-style houses, before driving past the illuminated Tashkent TV Tower. In the centre you walk around Amir Timur Square and along Sayilgoh Street, where the city comes out for its evening walk. Lights, fountains and dinner at Magic City. The evening ends at Magic City Park, with its fairy-tale buildings, colourful lights and musical fountain shows. Here you sit down to a dinner of local dishes, which is included in the price, and have time for a gentle walk before your driver takes you back to your hotel. Good to know. The tour lasts about four hours and includes hotel pickup and drop-off, a professional guide, the private car, fuel, dinner with drinks and all taxes. For the stop at Hazrati Imam we suggest clothing that covers shoulders and knees. Comfortable shoes help, as several stops are on foot.

April–June and September–October are the best months for Silk Road cities (Tashkent, Samarkand, Bukhara, Khiva): mild days for courtyards and bazaars. June–September suits Issyk-Kul, the Fann Mountains, and the Pamir Highway. Darvaza is possible year-round, but winter nights are extreme and we kit the camp accordingly. July–August is very hot in Khiva and Bukhara.
