    Everything was excellent apart from journey from Khiva to Bukhara train journey. Train travel was horrible in a shared sleeper without air conditioning.

    The planning and scheduling of the tour were exactly based on my requests. I received individual attention every step of the way, the guides were very personable, and the drivers were very helpful. Husnora, the Destination Expert in Uzbekistan was indeed a capable expert. I loved my guide in Bukhara who was very knowledgeable, flexible, and kind. I have a feeling I will be going back to Uzbekistan.
