An Action-Packed Immersive Tour
Sabina was brilliant - the 3.5 hours flew by and she brought the various sites of Samarkand to life fantastically, knowing exactly what time to go to each place when they were less busy, and was a fountain of knowledge. Thanks so much!

A remarkable city, made better with an amazing guide
Sabina was extremely articulate, knowledgable, passionate and funny tour guide. It was also her birthday - something she didn’t mention until later in the tour - and she was still prepared to explain everything in detail and answer all our questions.

SABINA - THE BEST TOUR GUIDE ????????????
Me and my family had a wonderful experience exploring Samarkand with Sabina! She explained everything beautifully, speaks fluent English, and is incredibly knowledgeable and patient. Even with my 1.5-year-old wandering around and interrupting her explanations several times, she handled everything with a smile and never lost her cool. Appreciate her efforts!!! Sabina is a passionate and ambitious young lady who genuinely loves what she does. I truly hope she achieves all her dreams and goes a long way in her career. If you're visiting Samarkand, I would recommend her 10/10 without hesitation! ????????????

Perfect!
We had a really nice time! 19 years old, Sabina knows a lot of the monuments, the city and the culture. She speaks perfect english, we could discuss a lot with her.

Fun and relaxed way of learning about the city
I really enjoyed this walking tour! It ended up being a private tour with Sabina. She brought the city's history to live and fill in my gabs about the Uzbek history. The atmosphere was relaxed, and the tour never felt boring or overly formal. A great way to get to know the city, especially if you're visiting for the first time. I really enjoyed the time and the new knowledge I gained. :) I would definitely recommend it!

Lovely unexpected private tour
I booked it here a night a head, the tour guide Shahi contact me immediately via WhatsApp and give me the info, when I can’t really locate the right location she also gave a direction to be at the right place. Turns out it was only me booked, and Shahi gave me a flexible choice of how to know the city. During the tour, she not just intro the history of the sites she also chat with me a lot of the culture, really appreciate it. Was a really nice tour!

How does a free tour work?
Booking costs nothing. At the end, each person gives the guide what they think is fair for the experience: it's a voluntary tip.
