It was all amazing . The cities got better and better with Bukhara being the best but the variety of desert forts and the wonderful night in the home stay added to everything . Our guide, Sanjar, was terrific at avoiding the crowds wherever possible .

Planet
Several days include exploration on foot, particularly in Tashkent, Khiva, Bukhara and Samarkand during city walking tours.
Walking through villages in the Nuratau Reserve, provides a greater insight into the region's natural and cultural heritage.
During the Nuratau Mountains stay, meals are home-cooked by local families, with ingredients often sourced from household vegetable gardens and livestock.
Travelers are encouraged to carry refillable filtered water bottles to reduce single-use plastic consumption during the trip.
The itinerary includes time in the Nuratau-Kyzylkum Biosphere Reserve area, noted for its unique flora, birdlife and habitat for the endangered Severtzov wild sheep.
People
The itinerary uses several locally owned accommodation providers, including Sasha & Son Guesthouse in Bukhara, the Nurata Guesthouse Association family guesthouses, and Jahongir Premium Hotel in Samarkand.
The Nurata Guesthouse Association consists of community-based family guesthouses across villages in the Nuratau Mountains.
A local tour leader is support by local guides specialist guides throughout the journey where appropriate.
The itinerary visits traditional bazaars, village communities and local cultural enterprises such as the Konigil Meros Paper Mill.
Staying with families in the Nuratau Mountains directs tourism spending into rural communities that receive fewer tourism benefits than Uzbekistan's major Silk Road cities.
