Embark on a captivating 4-day cultural journey from Tashkent to the ancient cities of Samarkand and Bukhara. This exclusive tour offers a deep dive into Uzbekistan’s rich heritage, where the architectural legacies of powerful medieval dynasties have stood the test of time.
In Samarkand, explore the legendary Registan Square, the heart of Tamerlane’s grand empire, and the Shakhi-Zinda Complex, home to the revered shrine of Kusam ibn Abbas, a cousin of Prophet Muhammad.
