We had a great time. We made sure we had a great time. The only reason I would not call it a five star experiences because of the anxiety I was caused upon arrival in Tashkent, there was nobody to receive us for the first 30 minutes because there was a last-minute problem gotoUzbekistan side. Something about the driver not showing up for some reason. Once Ibrahim showed up, the experience was just amazing. Even came to take me to the mosque next morning for Eid. Prayers. The guy that we had in Tashkent was another amazing guide. When we arrived in Bukhara, the next day, everything was perfect. The guide was amazing. She took care of everything.. Until it was time to depart, I asked my guide for the tickets to the train to go to Samarkand, and she realized that I had not been sent the tickets. I booked this to more than a month ago and the ticket train tickets were supposed to be given to me just before departure. They could’ve sent it to me ahead of time so that this last-minute panic would not happen, there was a problem with the Internet, the country and they could not send it last minute. This is something that is totally preventable in terms of stress. Upon arrival In Samarkand the driver showed up on time, but he did not speak a word of English and our guide was available to us by phone. She was not aware of the evening tour and had to make last-minute arrangements running around so we had to wait for her for 10 minutes on the roadside while she arrived. Once she arrived, the experience was amazing. We truly enjoyed her knowledge her hospitality and the way she took care of us. She spent the day with us yesterday and nothing could’ve gone wrong. It’s unfortunate that Rehan lost two stars because of the transfers, I think the service is great , loved all The guys the hotel, and the people of Uzbekistan. We will definitely be back
I really had a great time on a day tour. Everything was very well organized, tour guide trying to listen everyone’s wishes and accommodate the schedule. Just prepare to dedicate 12 hours and have a good rest before and after :) beautiful city with rich history and wonderful locations to explore and see.
Wonderful time on the train! Can’t wait to use this transportation again. The staff on board were very thorough kind, and efficient. The train was comfortable, clean and on time consistently.
