It was a great tour. Thank you for helping us with the early arrival in Ashgabat. The guide was very good informative.
We arranged visas our self through London, but needed to be picked up at the border crossing from Shavat to Turkmenistan.
Everything went as planned, bring a lot of USD to Turkmenistan, you will get at least double the official rate.
Make sure you have Konye Urgench in your visa if you want to see that city as well on your way to Darvaza.
We do recommend Caravanistan.
Aliya is wonderful- so patient since I ask a lot of questions when I’m planning a trip. My trip to Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan was determined at the last minute and I went during low season. My main issue was visa. Aliya was very patient since we went back and forth and she answered a lot of my queries with clarity and transparency. I feel that without her help, I would not be able to get the visa into tough Turkmenistan. All went well and she sent documents promptly.
We spoke on the phone as well and it was just lovely that things moved along with quick and ease-m definitely dealing with a professional.
The one thing that I love the best was not- at any point- made to feel pushed into settling with an itinerary or product. This is how travel companies should operate. When I landed, she came to my hotel and we had all the payment completed. Although I have all documents printed, Aliya gave me the contract and visa documents for Turkmenistan. Like this small attention to detail and thoughtfulness. Aliya also helped me with money exchange and buying train tickets….really appreciate her doing this considering it was snowing in Tashkent. Overall, what a trip and looking back, I’m glad I took the trip. Great information on caravanistan and of course- great help from Aliya!
I wish Central Asia the best- definitely an upcoming region.
2018 was the end of my Central Asia trip. More adventure awaits
Aliya and all her colleagues did SUPER job !!!
A huge thanks to all of them !!!
Warmest Regards

Aliya was extremely organised, had wonderful communication and helped us change plans at the last minute. As a younger couple on what is typically an ‘older person’s tour (or so we kept being told!) we were able to adapt the tour as needed to suit our interests. Our drivers were wonderful and overall our tour guides were informative and pleasant. I would highly recommend Aliya as a tour operator and Uzbekistan as a destination.
Aliya organized our trip to Turkmenistan and we couldn’t have been more pleased! My husband and I traveled with our two small children (age 2 and 5) and the trip was extremely smooth. We had a fantastic English speaking guide, Sary, and overall had a terrific time. Thank you!
We have booked German-speaking guides via Aliya in 3 cities – Tashkent, Bukhara and Samarkand. We were very pleased with both the guides and the organization.
Kamol, our guide in Tashkent, was the best, very knowledgeable, excellent German, a nice young man.
In Bukhara Galina was our guide. She has been working as a guide for a long time and has a lot of experience, we have enjoyed the city tour with her.
In Samarkand our guide was Ruslan, who came as a replacement for the booked guide. He was nice and tried very hard, but he lacked a lot of knowledge about the city and his knowledge of German was not very good.

Wir haben über Dich deutschsprachige Guides in 3 Städten gebucht, Taschkent, Buchara und Samarkand. Wir waren sowohl mit den Guides als auch mit der Organisation sehr zufrieden.
Am besten war Kamol, unser Guide in Tashkent, sehr gutes Wissen, ausgezeichnete Deutschkenntnisse, ein netter junger Mann.
In Buchara war Galina unser Guide. Sie arbeitet schon lange als Guide und hat sehr viel Erfahrung, wir haben die Stadtführung mit ihr genossen.
In Samarkand war unser Guide Ruslan, der als Ersatz für den gebuchten Guide kam. Er war nett und hat sich sehr bemüht, aber es fehlte ihm viel an Wissen über die Stadt und auch seine Deutschkenntnisse waren nicht sehr gut.
Best regards
Aliya made her best to make our trip a reality. We were not even sure we would get a visa, but got one upon arrival Tashkent Airport. Aliya is very knowledgeable and takes control. She even came to our hotel so that we didn’t have to visit her office. I have the highest recommendations of her work and service. Our trip to the Aral Sea was a success.
Travelling to Uzbekistan involves extensive planning as this is not your usual travel destination. Most citizens require an LOI (Letter of Invitation) before applying for a visa and this can take months to process. Luckily, Aliya was always on hand to help out. She was extremely patient in addressing our enquiries and concerns. Tour guides spoke good English. The only downside was the drivers, who could only speak a smattering of English. This wasn’t really a huge problem as their role was to bring us from one destination to the next. I’d definitely recommend my friends to approach Aliya if they have travel plans to Central Asia.
Aliya organized a tour for myself and a friend in Turkmenistan. We are independent travelers, but the Turkmenistan’s requirements make that a bit difficult! Our tour guides through the desert and north Turkemenistan were great!
We had a fantastic time in Kyrgyzstan. Both our guide and driver were incredibly friendly and helped us have a very pleasant stay. And they did manage to locate good vegetarian food for us. We particularly enjoyed our visit to Arslanbob. The homestay was great, and we found the local people to be very friendly and outgoing.
Sincere thanks for all of your efforts to make our tour of Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan so enjoyable. We’ve already told many friends about our visit, and they might just be contacting you in the near future!
I have just finished my tour that you organised.
Thank you, Aliya. It was all amazing and so well organised. We particularly liked the guides in Khiva and Bukhara. The accommodation was universally excellent. Shiva is such an immersive experience and Bukhara has some great sites. The Registan in Tashkent is truly amazing. Thank you again for organising our wonderful trip.
My only comments for improving the trip would be to fly from Khiva to Bukhara. It is a long and uninteresting drive. Also, a warning to tourists that they need to get a permit to take out carpets. I bought a beautiful small carpet in Bukhara and had it as part of my hand luggage. There were major problems at Tashkent airport. Fortunately, a kind officer allowed me to pass thru. (If it had been in my main luggage it may have gone unnoticed).
I have just returned from Uzbekistan and can highly recommend Aliya. I had a particularly complicated trip with multiple visa entries (with children) for Uzbek and entry to Tajikistan, different drivers, hotels, flights, and remote access requirements. This was handled with exceptional efficiency. Then my travel plans changed and, at the last minute, i had to change all my plans, re-book hotels, drivers and flights with limited notice – which the company did with complete efficiency again – the change also resulted in an unexpected refund which was repaid without request. At one point I left our passports at a hotel, discovering this as i was about to enter an airport 3 hrs away!! The company had arranged for a driver to return the passports before i even realized I had left them behind. I have traveled extensively for the last 30 years and have NEVER experienced such attentive efficient honest and supportive help. Highest recommendation.
We recently (July 2015) went with Aliya tours to Tashkent, Samarkand and Bukhara. Excellent, full service, very professional guides. Everything was great the entire time we were in the country. They had a range of tours available and were able to alter them according to what we wanted. They also helped with visas and that process was about as straightforward as it could be.
hey
It was good, most tour guides didnt have an Uzbek accent but all was fine
Uzbekistan has to be the most beautiful country in Central Asia.
Its cheap and most people are very friendly. Company is very professional, Aliya Japarova is an angel….. My trip to UZ was cancelled twice due to Russian visa (non having one), once from Georgia and the other from Armenia. Ive visited Iceland thrice and Scotland once but I never imagined Central Asia was so nice….only thing I hate about UZ is the constant police checking and the declaration of money LOL. I saw a beautiful Russian orthodox church in the heat of Samarqand.. A police officer stopped me (maybe my beard was the reason) but the hotel manager came in quickly and told the police officers to not bother me…. Id return to UZ any time I can… I am impressed with Georgia and Armenia too, but my heart and mind are set on UZ it is like a spell (same stuff I think about Island)
But i dream everyday of Uzbekistan…… Samarqand, Bukhara, Khiva ….without being a Muslim myself I adore Muslim architecture!!!!!!
I took several day tours with Aliya in Uzbekistan, and had a great time. Very well informed and interesting guides, thanks!
