Unforgettable Experience in the Yurt Camp! - We had an amazing two-day tour at the yurt camp near Aydarkul. The peaceful desert scenery, traditional yurts, and warm hospitality made the trip truly special. Riding camels, enjoying the sunset over the dunes, and experiencing the nomadic lifestyle were unforgettable. The highlight was Aydarkul Lake—its calm waters and stunning views were breathtaking. The food was delicious, and the atmosphere was so relaxing. A perfect getaway for nature and adventure lovers! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

What an amazing experience - This was one of the most authentic experiences that you could have. Traveling through the rural parts of Uzbekistan, having traditional meals, sleeping in yurts, riding camels…
Organization was amazing and our driver Hasan was perfect. He took care of everything, helped us with our issues and was in general just an amazing and kind person, making this trip even more enjoyable.
Thank you Hasan

Beautiful, relaxing experience to do in low season. Organization available and in permanent contact. - We stayed in the low season, when tourism is predominantly domestic. The place on the lake was gorgeous, large and deserted beach, delicious fish and healthy Uzbek atmosphere. Even the night in the yurt camp, with only four other people, was beyond expectations. On the way back we modified the route according to our needs and the climate of the season, without problems and with a very helpful and kind driver. Recommended.

Night in the yurts - We just did a 2-day tour from Samarkand to Bukhara with a stop and overnight stay in a yurt and a few visits along the way. It was a great experience and I thank our driver who was excellent and very attentive and thoughtful throughout. The food was all good too. In the yurts, there was great service and everything was very clean, we had a lot of fun and it was nice to socialize with other travellers. I highly recommend TravelBliss LLC for the excellent organization.

2 Days 1 Night Yurt Experience - This trip met our expectations.
Our driver Hassan was very friendly and felt more like a friend. He’s learning English and will try his best to converse with you in English. We enjoyed his hospitality.
The yurt stay was very authentic and all the food provided was a good variety and very filling.
Make sure you bring your swimming attire so you can take a dip in Aydar lake.
We totally enjoyed ourselves and it was a good pace.

Very nice Trip Good driver - I joined the 2 Days of Tour in Yurt Camp and Aydarkul Lake in May 2024. Hasan, not only a driver but also an English speaking guide, picked up at my hotel in Samarkand on time. He drove smoothly, took a break for photo shot in every best panoramic view. The first day, we drove for 3 hours to Nurota, stopped for delicious lunch at local house, then visited Alexander the great fortress and Chashma pilgrimage, drove another 1 hour to the Yurt Camp. I rode a camel for a while, then watched the sun set, had dinner and enjoy listened to Kazach music. The latter day, after breakfast, we drove to the lake, relaxed at the shore and had lunch at the lakeside resort, then drove to Bukhara for 4 hours, stopped at Caravanserai and ceramic shop on the way. He finally drop off me to the door of my guesthouse in Bukhara. I recommended this tour.

Yurt Camp and Aydarkul very very Good place - Unique experience
We slept one night but the experience will remain with me as one of the most beautiful I have ever had.
You stay in tents where there is only a socket for charging cell phones and a light to illuminate the interior. There is no signal for phones so you are cut off from the world.
To wash you go to an area where there are outdoor sinks and showers (a bit like in campsites). The bathrooms are also far from the yurts but are divided male-female and everything is still cleaned in real time and disinfected.
There is the possibility of taking a camel ride in the desert before dinner, like we did.
The dinner is rustic and delicious. They also offer local vodka.
At night, under a Milky Way that seems so close it can be touched, a local minstrel sings very evocative local Kazakh songs by the light of a bonfire with an instrument with only two strings.
The next morning, after breakfast, we continue to other destinations, in our case the nearby Aidarkul Lake.
The field is full of more or less large holes which are nothing other than the exit holes of the burrows of the desert squirrels, cute, curious and harmless little creatures. Other fauna that you might encounter are shy lizards that suddenly run away as soon as they sense the slightest danger.
