Exploring Tashkent Like a Local with Juraev - I had the pleasure of taking a Private Tashkent City & Food Tour with Juraev, and it was truly one of the highlights of my trip. From the very beginning, he made me feel welcome with his friendly and genuine personality.
Juraev is incredibly knowledgeable about Tashkent’s history, culture, and daily life, and he shared his insights in a way that was both engaging and easy to connect with. His passion for the city really brought each place we visited to life. What I appreciated most was his thoughtfulness and attention to detail, he tailored the experience to my interests and made sure everything flowed smoothly throughout the day.
The food stops were wonderful, and thanks to Juraev I got to try authentic local dishes I wouldn’t have discovered on my own. His care in explaining the traditions behind the cuisine made the experience even more special.
Above all, his warmth and kindness made the tour feel less like a formal excursion and more like spending a day with a good friend who loves sharing his city. I can’t recommend Juraev highly enough, this was an unforgettable experience!

Amazing - I had the pleasure of having John as my tour guide during my trip to Uzbekistan, and I cannot recommend him enough. From start to finish, John was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly supportive.
He is making sure that every detail of the journey was smooth and enjoyable.
He has deep knowledge of Uzbekistan’s history, culture, and hidden gems.
He was always patient, attentive, and ready to help with anything I needed. What impressed me most was his positive attitude and friendly nature, which made everyone feel comfortable and welcomed.
Thanks to John, my experience in Uzbekistan was unforgettable.
He is an outstanding guide and a wonderful person, and I would highly recommend him to anyone visiting Uzbekistan.

Amazing Tashkent nature landscapes - Wow, what a trip. The landscape around Tashkent is stunning and there is so much natural scenery in the mountains. The tour was well paced and I was collected and dropped at my hotel with no problems. Once out of the city, the traffic was light and the roads empty. My driver and guide was an amazing guy. Polite, interesting and also witty with lots of insider information along the way.

Best tour guide in Usbekistan! - The perfect guide for my short first time visit to Usbekistan! I spent the first night at his parents house - with delicious food and good company. We spent a day touring the most important sights of Tashkent, and a trip by car to Samarkand. He granted all of my wishes for the trip, witch included to go swimming in a river, hammam, wine tasting (best Ive ever tasted) and good quality shopping. Also took me for amazing food - plov is my new favourite. I can recommend this flexible, honest and warm guide from the bottom of my heart.
