We had a great trip with Anur Tour! The communication and assistance from Khabiba was top notch. She was extremely helpful with great English. The team at Anur did everything in their power to ensure we had great drivers and local guides throughout. We learned a lot and will be working with them again on our next trip to Uzbekistan :)

Very professional tour operator always available and highly reliable, special mention to Narina, thank you for your support.

Perfect organization! A classic tour enriched by an excursion to the 7 lakes in Tajikistan and a night in a yurt camp. Our guide, Mardon, was excellent and also introduced us to everyday life among the local people. A small hitch at a hotel in Khiva was resolved promptly and perfectly. We felt pampered for the entire duration of the trip, where we didn't have to think about anything other than enjoying the wonderful places that the great experience and professionalism of Marjona from Anur Tour introduced us to.

From the very beginning, Mohichehra’s dedication and attention to detail were exceptional. Nothing we requested was ever too much trouble, and her care and professionalism made a real difference to our experience. We loved every hotel we stayed in, especially considering we had chosen the standard hotel option. We thought the Parklane Hotel was excellent—until we reached Khiva. Then Bukhara. Then Samarkand! Each hotel seemed to surpass the last, with our Samarkand hotel being a wonderful four-star property. The standard of accommodation in Uzbekistan is higher than in many other countries we’ve visited, and the breakfasts were plentiful and delicious. One of the biggest surprises was how clean, green and beautifully maintained the cities were. Walking through the parks and public spaces was an absolute joy. Somehow, I had imagined Central Asia to be dry and dusty, but I couldn’t have been more wrong. We thoroughly enjoyed the national dish, plov, and everywhere we went, people were friendly, welcoming and eager to help. The hotel staff couldn’t do enough for us and were incredibly generous with bottled water, while water coolers were available at every hotel. Prices were very reasonable, even for South Africans with our rather wonky currency! 😊 One of our lifelong dreams was to follow the Great Silk Road, and learning about the history that first sparked our interest in Uzbekistan and the other Central Asian “stans” was truly rewarding. We were also impressed by how highly developed Uzbekistan is. The transport systems are efficient and modern, from the excellent railway network and beautiful local buses to the widespread use of methane-powered vehicles and the growing number of electric cars. It was genuinely admirable. The historical sites were fascinating, and we appreciated learning about both the country’s ancient past and its more recent history and architecture. We especially loved the stunning blue and turquoise colours that dominate so many of the historic buildings. The only aspect we felt could be improved was the pacing of the historical tours. While we thoroughly enjoyed learning about Uzbekistan’s rich heritage, some of the information became repetitive. For example, once we had explored and understood the significance of the madrasahs, it wasn’t necessary to revisit the same level of detail in every city, particularly in the intense summer heat. We also felt that the final two days were somewhat anticlimactic, with a very rushed itinerary that seemed to have been added simply to fill the remaining time. Overall, our journey through Uzbekistan was an unforgettable experience and one we will treasure for many years to come. Thank you, Mohichehra, for your outstanding service, kindness and genuine care. Your extra efforts made our visit truly special, and we will gladly recommend both you and Anur Tours to others. One small suggestion would be to ensure that pricing is kept fully up to date, as unexpected changes at the last minute can be rather off-putting. It was such a pleasure meeting you. We sincerely appreciate everything you did for us and wish you every success in the future. Thank you once again for the beautiful gifts you gave us—they were a lovely and thoughtful reminder of our wonderful time in Uzbekistan. ❤️

Pleasant surprises with empathetic and very helpful people.

As a solo female traveler visiting Uzbekistan for the first time, I was naturally a little apprehensive—but Mohichera, Anur Travel exceeded all my expectations and made this an unforgettable journey. From the very beginning, Mohichera was incredibly responsive, often replying to my messages outside of regular office hours. This level of dedication gave me immense peace of mind, especially as a woman traveling alone in a new country. I was particularly impressed by the thoughtful arrangements and attention to detail. The extended stay until midnight was seamlessly organized, and I truly appreciated the care that went into every aspect of the itinerary—even though I understood it was already part of the package, the execution was flawless. The local guides at Boukhara and Tashkent were professional, knowledgeable, and made me feel at ease. All in all, the professionalism and efforts from Mohichera, Anur Tour ensured my trip ran smoothly from start to finish. I am genuinely grateful for her hard work and would not hesitate to book with them again. 5 star service ! Highly recommended!

A beautiful discovery of a country rich in history: the cities of Samarkand, Bukhara, and Khiva, classified as UNESCO World Heritage sites, compete in wonders and beauty. Interesting and highly educated French-speaking guides, very comfortable hotels.

Our trip was a refreshing and enriching discovery of history, sharing with the guides and the local population. It is a very beautiful country. This stay was well organized with the local agency Anur Tour, especially by Narina, our advisor who made herself available for all our questions. It is a country that deserves a few days to appreciate its colors, its sun ☀️, and its architecture.

.......and Narina Gasparian from Anur Tour in Tashkent arranged an absolutely fantastic 12-day itinerary for us this May! Through the Evaneaos website, you provide your budget and the duration of your trip, and that is where sincere and objective exchanges begin. A quote is proposed to you, with a selection of hotels or rooms with locals, or even a yurt camp. And on-site, everything is perfectly organized: punctual and cautious drivers, friendly and interesting French-speaking guides – in each city as far as we are concerned – well-selected visits to monuments. As a bonus, plenty of very useful tips and recommendations, such as a list of restaurants, precautions about prohibited medications, customary tips, etc. In short..... we highly recommend you!!
