    Overpriced trip

    Mark_M, Jun 2026
    For what this is it was overpriced. Picked up from the hotel and driven to the bakery. Guide himself had to ask the bakers our questions. We got the feeling that we were in the way. However, watching them work is amazing and you do get the chance to mould a bread. You even have to pay for a bread if you want to taste it.

    Real bread from Samarkand

    Usman took us to a bakery, where we were able to see every step of the bread-making process, from flour to freshly baked bread. We even got to participate in some of the steps ourselves. Many thanks to the bakery staff for welcoming us, showing us their work, and letting us taste the delicious plov. A special thank you goes to Usman, our private guide, for his kindness, hospitality, and the excellent explanations he provided throughout the visit.

    Thank you so much for your lovely review. I’m really happy you enjoyed the bakery visit and getting to see the bread-making process from start to finish, and even taking part in it. It was a pleasure sharing that experience with you, and I’m glad you also enjoyed the warm hospitality and the plov. I truly appreciate your kind words and your time in Samarkand, and I wish you many more wonderful travels ahead.🙏🙏🙏
