The trip was good and not too long. The group was cohesive and diverse which helped make touring easy. The hotels were good, however those who booked 2 star also stayed at the same hotel (so don’t pay the extra). All hotels were acceptable, some better than others such as the Inspire S in Istanbul and the hotel in Bukhara. Majority of the guides were excellent, (especially Samarkand and Khiva) (one just left without me in Bukhara ~ hence I missed half of the tour (I don’t think Zara (9guide)) realised I was gone), did the same with one other at the bazaar in Bukhara.

The Silk Road cities of Samarkand, Bukhara & Khive were very interesting, the architecture was beautiful. Amazed at how clean & tidy everywhere is kept, very impressed with all the trees & flowering filled public spaces. The programme covered most of the important places of interest. I could have done without breaking my wrist on the 1st day but cannot fault the care I received from the 2 local ladies in the Chorsu market, the hospital & Marhabo our guide in Tashkent who acted as interpreter for me. Uzbekistan is a revelation, the people, the culture & the history, I am so glad I didn't have to miss it after my accident.

All of the arrangements made by Global Connect worked 100%. Airports transfer, trains, tours - all perfectly. The 3 guides provided in the 3 city were excellent and very knowledgeable. Our 5 day trip was very busy but perfect for us due to time constraints. Having more time in Bukhara and Samarkand is recommended.

Best time to visit Uzbekistan
- Summer 2026
Summer tours work with the warm weather by scheduling early morning visits and evening cultural events. The popular 7-10 day routes include cooling swims at Lake Aidarkul and visits to the summer palace of Bukhara's last emir. Days mix city exploration with indoor activities - mornings in Samarkand's covered bazaars, afternoons learning traditional crafts in air-conditioned workshops and also evenings watching folklore shows in historic courtyards. Many summer trips include stays in cooler mountain villages and nights in desert yurt camps where traditional music under starlit skies creates unforgettable moments.

- Fall / Autumn 2026
Fall creates ideal conditions for discovering both cities and countryside in Uzbekistan. Our top autumn tours span 8-14 days, blending UNESCO sites with seasonal activities. You'll visit paper workshops in Konigil when mulberry trees turn golden, explore Samarkand's lanes without summer heat and join families during their fall harvest. The premium routes include wine tasting at Bagizagan vineyard, time with master weavers in silk workshops and also special access to restoration work in Bukhara's historic Jewish quarter. Photographers particularly love the autumn light on ancient city walls in Khiva and also Bukhara. From what our travelers tell us, you've got four solid options for Central Asian tours, each with their own strengths and quirks. Zamin Travel gets lots of positive mentions for having really well-planned routes, and their German-speaking guides are particularly good - that's a big plus if you're looking for tours in German. GLOBAL CONNECT is the go-to choice if you want something built just for you. They're particularly strong with cultural immersion, and they pay attention to all those small details that make a trip feel special. Their guides work hard to help you really understand local life, traditions and also customs. Steppe Journeys has earned quite a reputation for running smooth operations. Two of their guides, Odil and Bek, keep getting mentioned by name in reviews - they're known for planning everything down to the last detail. That kind of consistency really shows in how their trips run. TourRadar customers who booked with Zamin Travel loved their guides' knowledge, but some mentioned hiccups with day-to-day communication about schedules and meeting points. It's worth noting this because while the actual touring is great, you might need to be a bit proactive about checking logistics. Each of these companies has its sweet spot - it really depends on whether you're after a German-speaking experience, want something totally customized, need everything planned perfectly or prefer to go with a larger platform like TourRadar.

- Winter 2026 / 2027
Uzbekistan feels wonderfully quiet in winter, making it perfect for exploring ancient cities without tourist crowds. Our cultural tours run 3-7 days and focus on indoor activities along key Silk Road stops. You'll discover the beautiful metro station interiors in Tashkent, relax in Bukhara's traditional hammams and join local families to learn their cooking secrets. Travelers really appreciate the converted merchant houses and boutique hotels during cold months - especially the historic Jewish houses in Bukhara with their authentic décor and reliable central heating. The shorter winter routes connect major cities by high-speed train, while longer trips include visits to Nukus's Savitsky Museum where you'll find an incredible collection of avant-garde Soviet art.
