It was miracle to me to visit the nice place and have fun as I had had only a bit time to prepare. Walking in the desert was exciting and relaxing. The night was beautiful and exotic. I really appreciate the tour and the driver. He was really a nice guide to show me a wonderful village and historical places and diligent translator there as well as a good driver.
Our wonderful and friendly driver Ikrom took us from Samarkand to Norata, where we had lunch, and then to the yurt camp. We swam in the Aydar Lake, listened to music next to the fire, watched the stars, rode in camel, ate great food and got to know how people live in the desert. I thoroughly recommend this tour.
Our 2 days tour was great. We were paired with Ykram as driver and he has been fantastic. He was a great driver but also a very knowledgeable guide, and we loved he shared so many information with us. Even if his English might not have been 100% he really explained us a lots of things, showed us the wildlife in the desert and really went an extra mile to make us enjoying our tour. We enjoyed every minute of our tour: the yurta was great and the food was amazing. The booking process was also super reliable and our driver was early on the pick up day. The yurta camp has toilets and shower facilities, however remember to pack something warm for the night.
Our tour guide was very friendly, spoke English and was very knowledgable. The tour was great, we saw much local wildlife in the desert, the camel rides were a highlight as was the musical performance in the evening. The food was also good and the yurt camp was comfortable. Can definitely recommend!
Worst experience EVER!! It has been a terrible experience this tour . The guide did not speak English at all, it was imposible to communicate with him. Then the music show , please you need to be serious, it was a guy that didn’t even want to wear the traditional clothes. You mention it was a show around the fire ? What fire ?? There was no fire!!! This is a nightmare and I paid 250 euros!!!
