Super interesting tour & great guide

It was a great tour! Our guide Guli was very clear, lovely and knowledgeable. She guided us through Bukhara, always giving us the choice to enter or not into a monument. She also gave us a lot of insights also about people’s way of life. She is super accessible! We highly recommend this tour!
