Cultural Treasures Of The Silk Road
An unforgettable trip
With the help of Nodir, a formidable guide, we structured an eleven-day trip, two of which were in Tajikistan in the seven lakes area. The entire organization was impeccable both regarding the choice of hotels and the attention to detail for transfers and visits. Nodir was not only an exceptional guide but also a precious travel companion, attentive to all needs but at the same time discreet and respectful. The means of transport were excellent, and the drivers who took turns throughout the trip were attentive. The accuracy of the organization made a trip that was born from a long-held desire even more unforgettable, and it allowed us to get to know an affable, hospitable people with a profound culture.

Samarkand: Tajikistan Seven lakes Day trip with lunch
Amazing day at the Seven Lakes!
We had a fantastic 1-day tour from Samarkand to the Seven Lakes in Tajikistan. Our guide, Murod, was excellent, very helpful, professional, and knew all the best spots for views. We didn't make it to the 7th lake (not possible at winter), but the 6th lake was beautiful and a highlight of the trip. Murod also took some great photos of us throughout the day, which is greatly appreciated! He took us to a local restaurant where we enjoyed a delicious, authentic Tajik dish. If you're looking for a smooth and memorable trip to Tajikistan, I highly recommend booking with Murod!
