Our trip with the guide Hussein in Kjujand-Tajikistan was really excellent. He has deep knowledge on Tajikistan’s culture and history and also loves what he does and has very positive energy. A big plus is that he speaks good English and we understand every single word he said. He is highly recommended, I couldn’t imagine of someone better than him. The city is an interesting place full of history. Finally the trip is a good chance to get a taste of Tajikistan if you stay in Tashkent.
