Our tour guide was very informative and professional. He explained and showed us everything. The sceneries were wonderful. I advise everyone to take this tour.
We had a terrific day to and at Iskanderkul on this private tour. Any trip to Tajikistan should prioritize visiting the countryside, and that means magnificent mountain scenery in this 93% mountainous nation. Bob did a great job caring for us and driving on some fairly rugged roadways. His English is great, and we had no problem at all communicating. We also appreciated the peaceful music he played in the car. We recommend this excursion from Dushanbe.
Our driver was super nice. He gave us a very nice trip and even stopped to buy us some Qurutob. Highly recommended!
It was a good tour. Driver arrived on time and on the way shared lots of history information about local places. Lakes Zmeinoe & Iskandekul look magniffisent, waterfall is powerful with constant rainbow in the air. Many picturesque views on the way with opportunities to touch the snow. Need to mention, that my driver had good skills for photography👍🏻 On the way to the lake we made a stop and driver bought some local snacks from market to try However, there are some lowsides: 1) Most of the excursion you spend in the roaf (3hrs there and 3 hrs back). So I find the tour cost overpriced, considering lunch is not included too. 2) there is a security control on the entrance to the lake, so to low down the fee I had to play spy games pretending local. Fine with me but someone can find it disturbing Overall, I can put this tour solid 4* and 0 5 point on top cause driver's efforts to make it better
The drive to the lake was one of the best I’ve done. It was a great day for it and Dilik the guide was super knowledgeable and a guy I would be friends with back home.
Thankyou for your review
We did an amazing day trip to Iskandarkul lake from Dushanbe. Driver was friendly, gave us interesting information, and was a very safe driver. We did a hike to a waterfall, enjoyed walking parts of the lake, and took in the stunning views. After we returned to the city. Highly recommend this day trip. Thank you Oriz for organizing.
Had a great day in early winter, experienced the amazing snow fall en route to the lake and back to Dushanbee. Enjoying the wonderful view at the lake. Also had a driver who was quite respectful, friendly and a good photographer.
A great day out of the city exploring Tajikistan. I really enjoyed my time on this tour and highly suggest you book with this company. Thanks for the memories
I went on this tour solo and my expectations were surpassed. Oriz was very professional and an excellent guide. He spoke fluent English so he taught me a lot about Tajikistan. Also, the drive felt much faster/shorter than what I expected. The views on the road and at the lake were amazing. This is must-do tour for anyone visiting Dushanbe
beautiful road trip, mountain, waterfall, and lake views at iskandarkul. Oriz is a friendly, prompt, professional, and knowledgeable guide ! 5 stars
