Outstanding one day familiarisation with Tadzhikstan. Guide knowledgeable. Our conversation carried on all day.

It was a lovely day trip with well executed logistics. The border crossing went smoothly. Umar, our tour guide, was knowledgeable and spoke English very well. It was a wonderful introduction to Tajikistan!
Response from Host, Mar 2025
We're so glad you had a wonderful introduction to Tajikistan! It’s great to hear that everything went smoothly and that Umar made your trip even more enjoyable. Thank you for sharing your experience—we’d love to have you back for more adventures in the future!

Deze dagtrip is na Samarkand schoonheid een grote teleurstelling
Weinig interessants te zien
Zou een ieder aanraden om naar 7 lakes te gaan voor een dagje Tsjatjikistan vanuit Samarkand, de gids was uitstekend maar de “attracties” zijn zeer matig
Response from Host, Nov 2024
Thank you for sharing your thoughts about your trip. We understand that the grandeur of Samarkand can set very high expectations for any destination that follows. Panjakent, as a small and historically significant town, offers a different kind of charm it provides a unique opportunity to step into Tajik culture and history, which complements the rich experiences of Uzbekistan.
While Panjakent may not match the architectural splendor of Samarkand, it holds its own treasures, such as the ancient ruins of Sarazm (a UNESCO World Heritage Site) and the legacy of the Persian poet Rudaki. It's also the closest gateway for visitors wanting to experience Tajikistan on a day trip from Samarkand, offering an authentic glimpse into the culture and lifestyle of this part of Central Asia.
For those looking for stunning natural beauty, we agree that the Seven Lakes are a fantastic option. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the company of our guide, and we’ll continue working to ensure that every guest’s experience is as fulfilling as possible.
We value your feedback and hope to welcome you back to explore more of Tajikistan’s incredible destinations!
