Großartiges Kurzerlebnis für Tadschikistan

Marcel_K, May 2023
Von vorn bis hinten super! Unser Guide Shirin hat unsere paar Stunden in Tadschikistan so unterhaltsam und lehrreich gestaltet, dass wir dieses Land direkt lieb gewonnen haben! Wir haben die alte Siedlungsstätte Sarazm, das Rudaki historical Museum und das alte Penzhikent besucht und fantastisch gegessen! Vielen Dank nochmals! Das einzig Irritierende: Der Fahrer auf usbekischer Seite hatte null Orientierung! Hätten wir ihm nicht den Weg zu unserem Hotel erklärt, würden wir wohl noch immer durch Samarkand irren!
