Great, comprehensive walking tour - My guide Nargiz met me promptly at the indicated spot. She was knowledgeable about everything we saw and her English was excellent. We covered all the indicated attractions. At the end of the tour, we were some little distance away from the starting point, and she paid for a tuk-tuk to take us back. Great experience!

Picturesque Bukhara - Shehnaz was a wonderful guide. She was very knowledgeable and extremely accomodating. Our train got delayed, and hence we had to postpone the tour by one hour. She adjusted to the time change and we were still able to cover all places in the itinerary without rushing. In fact, we visited Ismail Samani mausoleum which was not part of the trip. Very highly recommended.

Incredible experience with Manzila! - Manzila was absolutely amazing - she was so knowledgeable on the history of Uzbekistan and one could really tell how passionate she was about her country and culture. We spent a lovely 6 hours with her and would highly recommend her for a day tour of Bukhara

Wonderful Buhara - We came as a family for just a couple of days, Deela was approached on a recommendation. It's a really professional Guide, we started in the city centre at Laby House and at every landmark we went on to learn historical data, legends and current history. It wasn't just a field trip, it was a stroll through the city with a very soulful, friendly conversation on the same wavelength. We loved it madly, remembering fondly this day that flew by like an instant. Deela told me that one ticket allows three days of multiple visits to the Attraction he belongs to. And she told us where the pilaf was delicious, and it was only thanks to her call that we managed to taste it, as we arrived at 2 p.m. in the center of the pilaf. When I had to travel by tuk-tuk I traded the price twice the fare for tourists. Already recommend Diel to family, friends and acquaintances :-)

Fantastic tour - Gulnaz was a fantastic tour guide. She has deep knowledge and is a very enjoyable person to spend the day with during the tour. This tour was a great opportunity to see the main attractions of Bukhara in a short period of time.

Highlights of Old Bukhara with Behrouza - The guide, Behrouza, was there to pick me at the exact time requested. She knew her city and its history in great detail. She even new a bit of Indian history! It was a fun filled day that I will never forget. Behrouza's English was great and since I was the only client she personalised the pace to accomodate my walking problem. Behrouza deserves 6 out of 5 stars!

Highly recommended - She is an incredibly passionate, knowledgeable and well spoken guide, especially at the tomb of Hazrat Naqshband which was very important for us. She went the extra mile by showing us sights that we would have otherwise missed, and we had many interesting conversations. She also took us to an osh (plov) restaurant which locals go to and we had the best osh ever. Thank you very much!
