Review of a 2-day Bukhara to Samarkand yurt tour with Nurata, Lake Aydarkul, camel riding, desert camping, meals, and practical tips.

“We got to explore the desert and camel ride as well as swim in the lake. We listened to music at the yurt camp and had really good food. Everything was relaxing and exciting and Ikrom was so kind and polite. We were shown around multiple Uzbek and kazak villages and Ikrom knew a lot of information and was an incredible guide. Everyone was very lovely I definitely recommend if you are visiting Uzbekistan!”

Travel from Bukhara to Samarkand through Kyzylkum desert, ancient petroglyphs, Aydarkul Lake, camel rides, and a night in a yurt.

“What a wonderful experience. Nobody else booked on our tour so it was just the two of us. We had the impression, with our guide and driver, that we were just hanging with some local friends. So many magical moments, from driving through the desert at full speed blaring music, to the beautiful sounds of traditional music under the stars at the yurt camp, to meeting the old lady at the desert village whose quiet peace will inspire you. These moments will stay with us for life. You will not regret booking this tour, indeed you will fall in love with this beautiful country and its warm hearted people, as…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.1 · 11 reviews · 2 days · from $410

Review of a 2-day Aral Sea tour from Nukus, with the Ship Cemetery, Ustyurt Plateau, yurt camp, meals, costs, and practical tips.

“Molto divertente, viaggio lungo e sterrato pieno di dossi e buchi che l’autista evita alla grande contornato da paesaggi unici. Soste lungo la via per il mare di aral tra cui necropoli, ex fondi marini, canyon e molto altro. L’autista parlava abbastanza inglese per poterci comunicare e spiegare due cose. Arrivo nel pomeriggio dopo parecchie ore dk macchina un po stanchi ma felici, il villaggio di yurte si staglia su quel che resta del lago (che perora arriva oltre l’orizzonte e non si vedono i confini), bagno nel mare iper salato! Le yurte comode e calde, con il loro piumone e fuori 14 gradi sono stato caldissimo, sveglia all’alba per…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 8 reviews · 1.5 days

Travel from Nukus to the Aral Sea by 4x4, visiting Muynak, Mizdakhan, Ustyurt Plateau, and a desert yurt camp over two days.

“L’attività è stata bellissima nel suo complesso. Però, il nostro driver/guida non parlava inglese anche se noi avremmo dovuto avere una guida inglese. Un’altra cosa da tenere in considerazione è la qualità della strada, se si ha dei problemi alla schiena sconsiglio l’attività in quanto le strade sono in pessime condizioni e durante il tragitto ci sono buche ovunque.”

12.Kyzylkum Desert tour from Samarkand (1Night 2 Days)

★★★★★★★★★★4.3 · 7 reviews · 2 days · from $186

Review of the 2-day Kyzylkum Desert tour from Samarkand, with Nurata, Aydarkul Lake, yurt camping, camel rides, and practical advice.

“L’attività si è svolta come da programma, con l’aggiunta di due soste al ritorno per vedere un antico caravanserraglio e cisterna e un laboratorio di ceramica. Molto suggestiva l’esperienza in yurta e i paesaggi del lago Aydar e del deserto del Kyzulkum. Il campo è molto semplice, ma come ce lo aspettavamo e con tutti i servizi. Abbiamo anche avuto la yurta tutta per noi. Unica pecca, il nostro autista, se pur molto gentile, non parlava inglese e comunicare anche solo per capire tempistiche e orari è stato un po’ complesso.”
