Gur-e-Amir (betydende "Kongens grav") er et historisk mausoleum i Samarkand, Usbekistan. Det er gravstedet for den berømte erobrer Tamerlane (Timur), der grundlagde det Timuridiske imperium i det 14. århundrede og betragtes som en af de mest betydningsfulde figurer i Centralasiens historie. Gur-e-Amir er et fantastisk eksempel på Timurid arkitektur. Den har en stor, imponerende kuppel, indviklede fliser og majestætiske minareter. Strukturen kombinerer persiske, tyrkiske og mongolske arkitektoniske stilarter.
Registan Square er et af de mest ikoniske vartegn i Samarkand, Usbekistan, og betragtes som en af de smukkeste offentlige pladser i verden. Det var engang hjertet af den gamle by Samarkand, som var et fremtrædende center for handel, kultur og læring langs Silkevejen. Pladsen er omgivet af tre majestætiske madrasas (islamske uddannelsesinstitutioner), hver et fremragende eksempel på islamisk arkitektur med fantastiske fliser, indviklede designs og store indgange.
Bibi-Khanym Moskéen er en af de mest berømte vartegn i Samarkand, Usbekistan, og står som et vidnesbyrd om storheden og arkitektonisk glans af det Timuridiske imperium. Moskeen blev bygget under kejseren Timur i slutningen af det 14. århundrede og er et af de største og mest imponerende eksempler på islamisk arkitektur i Centralasien. Bibi-Khanym Moskéen blev bestilt af Timur til ære for hans kone Bibi-Khanym, som var en af de mest fremtrædende kvinder i hans hof. Ifølge legenden byggede Timur moskeen for hende, efter at hun havde anmodet om en stor struktur, der skulle opføres i Samarkand, og det siges, at moskéens design var inspireret af hendes skønhed og statur.
Siab Bazaar, Samarkands største og ældste marked, er et pulserende centrum for usbekisk kultur beliggende nær Bibi-Khanym-moskeen. Denne livlige orientalske bazaar, der går tilbage til det 14. århundrede, spænder over 7 hektar og tilbyder en sanselig fest af synspunkter, lyde og aromaer. Turister kan udforske farverige stalde fyldt med frisk frugt, grøntsager, krydderier, tørrede frugter, nødder og det berømte Samarkand brød, der er kendt for sin langvarige friskhed og indviklede designs. Håndværk, keramik, tekstiler og souvenirs er også rigelige, med forhandlinger er en værdsat tradition. Markedets livlige atmosfære, venlige sælgere og nærhed til historiske vartegn som Registan Square gør det til et must-besøg for en autentisk smag af Samarkands rige arv og dagligdag
Hazrat Khizr Moskéen er et historisk monument i Samarkand (midten af det 19. århundrede); forbundet med navnet på den legendariske islamiske profet Khizr. Bygningen blev opført på stedet for en gammel moské (ifølge indskriften på mihrab, i 1855). Monumentet ligger overfor Shakh-i-Zinda-komplekset på en bakke. I 2018 blev mausoleet af Republikken Usbekistans første præsident Islam Karimov åbnet på moskéens område
Shah-i-Zinda (betydende "den levende konge") er et kompleks af fantastiske mausoleer beliggende i Samarkand, Usbekistan. Det er en af de mest betydningsfulde og visuelt slående historiske steder i byen og er en UNESCO World Heritage Site. Komplekset er berømt for sit indviklede fliser, historisk betydning og åndelig betydning, og det betragtes ofte som en af de smukkeste nekropoler i Centralasien.

Visited a few places as stated in the itinerary, so it was a good introduction to the key sites of Samarkand and to understand a bit more of its history and heritage. Savirnoz was a great guide who was also very knowledgeable of the history and stories of the places that we visited. The tour was done at a nice pace and she took the time to engage us (participants) in casual conversations to understand more about us and our experiences. She even provided time for us to take pictures once she was done with her sharing and offered to help to take our pictures. Overall, if u are to get Savirnoz as your guide for this tour, you'll enjoy it.
Shah was a very good guide on our walking tour through Samarkand. Her English was perfect and her knowledge extensive. She was very attentive. Highly recommend this tour for an overview of Samarkand and its history.
Our guide Sevara was fabulous! She took us through the city highlights and let us experienced Samarkand through her eyes and knowledge. It was a great way to learn about this city, its history and culture.
We had an amazing time touring this city with our tour guide. Our originally assigned tour guide unfortunately met with an accident that morning while she was on her way to meet us the starting point. Tourmania did a great job of quickly getting us another tour guide keeping us in the loop the whole time. Our stand in guide was fantastic, took the time to show us the city, was knowledgeable about the sites and even helped us the next day making enquiries for us about a museum. Five stars to the guide and Tourmania!
Informative guide with fluent english made the tour better.
Our guide, Sarvinoz, was very knowledgeable, and the sights were beautiful. We were glad to have done the tour. Note: bring about $25USD in Uzbekistan cash (about 300,000 som) for entrance fees. Although they all say they take cards, the card reader may not be working and you need cash.
This tour was just ok. While we enjoyed the sites and the ability to see so many places on foot, we were left unimpressed by our guide and the pacing of the tour. While I commend anyone who takes on learning multiple languages, there's a mastery level needed to be able to give tours in other languages. Our guide could recite many facts & dates in English, but was not able to answer the questions we asked on the tour. Rather than admitting this, he would repeat a phrase about the site that had nothing to do with the question, which became quite frustrating. He was not able to connect with kids, which made it difficult for them to stay engaged. We were also supposed to end at 1PM, but we still had multiple sites left at 2PM when we finally decided we would cut out of the tour early as everyone was hungry and tired. This tour could be made a lot better by incorporating a stop for tea or lunch and keeping the group on schedule. My lesson for the future when booking through tour companies is to ask for the specific guides mentioned in 5-star reviews.
The walking tour with our guide, Bekhruz, was both informative and fun. It was originally supposed to be a 4-hour tour, but Bekhruz, generously extended it and it turned into a full-day experience. He was incredibly helpful, supportive, and very patient—even when we took time for photos. He also brought us to local bazaars and a local restaurant where we enjoyed a delicious lunch. Overall, I highly recommend this tour, especially with Bekhruz as the guide!
A wonderful introduction to the major historical landmarks and monuments with a well informed guide who spoke excellent English.
Ou guide Charos was well prepared and seemed to know a lot about not only Samarcand also about Uzbek history, highly recommended.
