Free tours a Samarcanda

We didnt have Fayoziddin as a our tour guide but a different guide. The lady was very professional and talked us through every single detail of the sights.

The walking tour exceeded our expectations! Yusuf is knowledgeable, kind and always helped us with our questions. The information was entertaining and accurate and gave us a lot of flexibility. I would 100% recommend

We are so glad to have come Fayoziddin's tour of Samarkand. To start with, we found Fayoziddin to be a genuine soul who speaks from heart without any judgement. He is a great narrator of stories with a touch of humor and that was the perfect combination. There was never a feel of rushing through places, he has taken time to explain each and every details. Always up for questions and discussions. Without him we wouldn't have got this much insights into the history of Samarkand and we are very glad for being patient and explaining everything to us. We wish Fayoziddin the best and highly recommend this tour.

It was a great tour from beginning to end! Fayoziddin provided a lot of interesting information throughout, and he was very thoughtful of our needs & preferences.

Well-designed route and the guru was super informative and funny!

I could not recommend this tour and my guide Sitora enough. She arrived on time, the communication was smooth, and the route was well-calculated. Sitora demonstrated a deep knowledge of history and was very attentive. The tour provides a deeper understanding of Samarkand's past beyond the Timur era. Super interesting and a hidden gem!

We had an absolutely amazing time with Sitora. She was so knowledgeable about Samarkand and the history behind every place! The tour was well paced and the time flew so fast! I absolutely recommend this tour to anybody who is interested in the history of Central Asia or the utterly unique architecture of Samarkand! Thank you again for the great time!

Fayoziddin was an excellent guide, well informed and good at communicating the information. The tour was full of information and covered all the main sites in the central area of Samarkand. I would have no problem recommending this tour.

Rukshona ha sido muy buena anfitriona, ha sido muy agradable y en todo momento nos explicaba las cosas muy bien.Graciaa Russhona.

Fayoziddin is an amazing guru! You can tell that he truly knows what he's talking about by heart, and he is very sincere if he has any doubts. The only downside might be that he sometimes speaks fast and has a slight accent. However, if you ask him to slow down, he definitely will. I didn’t have a problem with that, but after the tour, I learned that my girlfriend struggled from time to time. Walking with him, you feel like 'everyone in the city is a friend of his.' You can confidently follow his suggestions for food and events after your tour. Enjoy your time in this wonderful city!

A slightly too-long walk, especially in the heat. It was 4 hours long, and though we went past the main sights of Amir Timur Mausoleum, Registan Square, Bibi Khanum Mosque and Shoh i Zinda complex, we only saw them from outside and were told too many facts about them. There were also no breaks for the toilet or water, and so we were quite uncomfortable after walking in the sun for 4 hours. Would be good if we could optionally pay and go inside, which is what we did the next day. But this gave us a good lay of the land.

Fayoziddin's tour was excellent! He has a wealth of knowledge to share and has a relaxed, engaging manner. He was always thoughtful of group needs and helpful with suggestions. Highly recommended!

Nos encantó el recorrido y la información que nos dio Lola, muy profesional. Repetiría sin duda!!

We were a group of 7. Our Guru was very professional and knows a LOT about history. The tour lasted 3h30/45 and that was honestly too long. Maybe you'll like it better if you're into Islam or know already about Samarkand's story. We had a too many informations/names/dates. Would have been a bit easier to follow with less informations. I liked the facts and legends but would have appreciated a lighter tour !

I really enjoyed Fayoziddin's tour. It gave us an enjoyable insight into Samarkand and it's position in Uzbekistan's history. Fayoziddin is a knowledgeable, interesting and talkative guide. The whole group enjoyed him a lot. Thanks Fayoziddin!

Excelente guía y mejor persona, muy profesional explicando a detalle los lugares visitados. 100% la recomiendo.

Everything I was hoping for. Really informative, entertaining and I feel well set up to explore this incredible city.

We had an excellent tour of Samarkand led by Fayoziddin! We learned and saw a lot! Fayoziddin was so knowledgeable, friendly and entertaining. He also graciously recommended local spots to eat after the tour. We thoroughly enjoyed our afternoon with Fayoziddin and we highly recommend him as a guide!

Very knowledgeable guide!! Super fun and extremely friendly. Thank you so much for the great experience 🙏🙏

Moji ha sido una guía excepcional! El tour fue muy dinámico y entretenido. Para conocer realmente la historia y la cultura de Samarcanda, ella es la persona ideal. Ha superado nuestras expectativas!

The guide is passionate about the history and he's open, considerate and knowledgeable. The brief summary at the end was really helpful to memorize the information.

Fayoz is a brilliant guide. This one of the ancient city was so brilliant. We saw many interesting things and he explained many perspectives and interpretations. It gave us a chance to consider which of the narratives are true. I am left with many thoughts in my head! A wonderful tour about a fantastic ancient city. It was so good that I immediately booked another tour for the afternoon!

Rukhshona ha sido amable y muy bien preparada. Me ha hecho vivir Samarkand de una manera espectacular y ha sido super simpática! Si viajáis a Uzbekistá,tenéis que hacer el tour con ella!

This tour is a very good introduction to allt the mosques and mausoleums that Samarkand has to offer. Our guide es very professional and funny and we really enjoyed talking to him and walking around Samarkand.

I'm really grateful for the tour and all the interesting facts Fayoziddin shared with us. We had lots of time to take photos and yet the tour was not dragged out and I didn't noticed how fast the time passed by. Highly recommend to get this tour to everyone who just arrived to Samarkand. Many thanks to Fayoziddin!
