Guides speak several languages, and photographers such as Rabie and Hicham help with the outfit session. Bring patience, and ask about photo delivery before leaving.

“I don’t even know how to rate. It was good, but I am still waiting for the pictures from photoshoot. Maybe if they see the review, they can finally send them to me. Rather than that, no complains. Please know that the desert is rocky, not sandy.”

4.Tashkent city Night Tour with Dinner & Free Pro Photography

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 7 reviews · 6 hours · from $70

Join Aziz on a six-hour private evening tour of Tashkent. See Chorsu Bazaar, Minor Mosque, illuminated squares, the Courage Monument, and beautiful metro stations. The tour includes transport, Uzbek food, and free photos taken with a Leica phone camera. English, Russian, and Uzbek are available.

“The guide’s name is Aziz. Frankly,he’s one of the best guide you can ever booked. The tour wasn’t done by any company but himself posting and doing,so it’s an original tour. This guide is a 20 years-old college student born in Tashkent, so he’s smart, energetic, technological sound and know the city by heart. Don’t think you can ask for a better guide. Granted there have been some customer’s complain that at times he’s on his phone and watch Youtube but he’s a young guy and it was during the transportation phase in which his relative was driving, not himself. He’s quite sad about that feedback and ask me constantly…”
