Itinerary
For the first time in Uzbekistan, a world-class ski resort opens its doors, which is a real joy for residents and tourists. A huge resort zone (almost 900 hectares) is located in the Bostanlyk district of the Tashkent region. The mountain recreation zone "Amirsoy" has already proved itself as the most ambitious and modern project of recent years, and a huge flow of tourists is a confirmation.
The Valley of Chimgan is located on the height of 1200-1600 meters above sea level and is surrounded by mountains. Greater Chimgan Mountain (3309 m) is the main peak of the valley and towers above the entire valley. You can have the following activities optional: horse riding, riding on a quadricycle (buggy) & cable car
This Pearl of Tian Shan Mountains has appeared quite recently. The rockfill dam of 168-meter height was made in 1970. The Confluent of the mountain rivers of Pskem, Kok-Su, and Chatkal created the wonderful mountain lake – Charvak Reservoir, in which blue water attracts everyone on hot summer days. You can have the following activities optional: ride on the boat, jet ski & para plan

An amazing trip to the beautiful mountains and countryside of Tashkent City. As part of the trip we visited a ski resort on the Amirsoy mountains. We took the cable car to the top of the mountain, the view of the snow covered mountains was breathtaking. The kids had a lot of fun snowball fighting, building a snowman and horse riding. Added to all this the guide, Murad was amazing and everything was well arranged by the tour operators including the car, tickets to the resort/cable car and he delicious lunch.
Thank You! We are always ready to provide best travel experience across the Uzbekistan
Great experience. What a friendly driver and guide . I cant explain how great the day was. Best experience in uzbekistan
It's fine to get out of the city but there's nothing exciting, beautiful views. I only took the first cable car maybe if you get to the top it's different. High costs of the cable car.
Dear customer, thank you for booking with us. you had to reach the top of mountain by 2nd cable car to see the real view and we highly reccommend upcoming tourist to reach that pick. otherwise there is no point to go to Amirsoy. the price for cable car is around USD 10 only each, which is not overpriced for professional skiing resort.
The overall experience was smooth and the views were beautiful the entire time. The driver did not speak English, but we booked the driver only option during a trip in March, so this was within our expectations and we did not have any issues communicating with language translating apps. We were given as much time as we wanted at each place we stopped and we just had to message the driver once we were ready to leave, so we enjoyed the flexibility. At Charvak Reservoir, the driver helped take photos for us from different viewpoints. The only comment we had was that the itinerary listed 3 stops (Amirsoy, Chimgan, and Charvak Reservoir) but we only made the 2 stops at Amirsoy and Charvak Reservoir and were unsure if there was any specific reason we didn't stop at Chimgan. However, we were happy and satisfied with the experience we had and had no complaints. We would highly recommend this experience to future travelers and hope to visit Uzbekistan again! Thank you so much!
Dear customer, the reason of skipping the Chimgan mountain is there are lots of construction are massivly going on. thats why it is impossible to stap there for view.
Beautiful scenery. A chance to hike in the mountains for optional length of time. See highlights of the city.
Chose the driver only option - driver was on time. (Did not speak English, but that’s all good as we didn’t ask for a guide) The chair lift tickets are not included in the price. The 2 mountain tours were great, but there’s no option to hike or walk around much. On the way to the 3rd stop (Charvak Reservoir) we asked our driver when we should expect to be there and he replied saying that noone told him we should go to the lakes. Instead we stopped for a second to take a photo from the side of the road. Police sent us away as it’s not allowed to park there. Disappointing. I contacted customer support asking why we couldn’t spend an hour on the lake as I expected to go on a boat and see the beach. “There is reconstruction is going on. Did you take a photos beside the road? Almost the same place was skipped.” Told them that we did, but were sent away by the local authorities. They blamed us saying “I guess you stopped in the wrong place.” Asked for a refund.
Amazing view at the ski resort and Dildora was a wonderful and friendly guide. Unfortunately the reservoir was closed but we still managed to take some nice photos.
We had a great day trip to the mountains. Fantastic views and great walking opportunities. Dildora was an excellent tour guide and she told us many interesting things about Uzbekistan. The driver was also very good. The traditional lunch was great too. I would definitely recommend this tour.
We had a lovely peaceful day out in the mountains with our guide Dildora and driver Ibrahim. Particularly enjoyed the cable car ride and the reservoir. Excellent lunch provided. Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable and our driver was very safe. My only recommendation for this trip is that you state the hotel that you want to be picked up from, rather than choosing from a list. It took a while to determine which of the hotels on the list was nearest to where we were staying, but it still took us half an hour to walk there prior to being picked up, and caused confusion at the end of the trip, as the driver thought we were staying there. However, once we clarified the situation they kindly dropped us off at our own hotel.
Average tour. I had asked the guide (in advance of departure) if the weather conditions were favorable to see the view on the mountain summit. I was told yes, but it was not. I asked for a partial refund. I wasn't allowed to.
