Itinerary

Day 1
Bukhara to Sentob
Your driver will meet you at 9 AM for the 4.5-hour drive from Bukhara to Sentob village. The journey takes you through the Uzbek countryside, and you'll arrive with enough time to have lunch at your homestay. After settling in, the afternoon is yours to wander around the village and get a feel for the local architecture and how people go about their day. Your official guided tour starts tomorrow, so this is really just about getting oriented and relaxing after the drive.

The guide (Sherali) and porter (Nooric) were great .. I’d rate them 4 and 5 respectively.. we did however have a bad experience with the Tour Radar/ Responsible Travel platform. We should have been informed immediately that the original guide had a medical episode outside our hotel and is still in hospital.. this only came out later.. but the failure to do so and the vague messaging we did receive made the arrangements look amateurish and offering no accountability.. a lot of hassle for all concerned could have been avoided by accurate and timely advice. I’d rate the platform experience at zero for this reason

All local guides were very knowledgeable, considerate and thoughtful. The person who stands out was our driver Ikrom…one of the guides once mentioned ‘now we have to find our driver’ to which I responded ‘no, Ikrom finds us!’ Which made him stand out so much, amongst other things, we felt so looked after, he was very respectful and gallant, always on the lookout for us, on the long roadtrips we had wonderful conversations and laughter, 5+ stars to Ikrom It took us some time to get used to the typical driving in Uzbekistan, the driver we had on the daytrip to Karakalpakstan had us curling our toes at times! The 4cities were incredible to visit! So much history, so many details, so many wonderful colours and local people super kind and polite. We felt very safe during our visit and enjoyed Uzbekistan very much!
