Højdepunkter

This experience brings together Samarkand's most iconic landmarks in one carefully designed walking journey, combining history, architecture, local culture, and personal storytelling. Rather than simply moving from one monument to another, you will explore the stories behind Gur-e-Amir, Registan Square, Bibi-Khanym Mosque, Siyob Bazaar, and Shah-i-Zinda with a knowledgeable local guide who helps bring the history of the Silk Road to life. The tour also offers a more flexible experience than a standard sightseeing itinerary. Along the way, you can experience both Samarkand's world-famous monuments and its everyday local atmosphere, including a visit to the lively Siyob Bazaar and a small additional surprise stop. For travelers who want to explore even further, the experience can be extended with an optional visit to one additional destination, such as Ulugh Beg Observatory, the Imam al-Bukhari Memorial Complex, or the Koni Ghil Paper Mill.

About Samarkand

Samarkand is an ancient Silk Road city in Uzbekistan, famous for blue-tiled domes, grand madrasas and the great Registan square.

Samarkand has been a crossroads of trade routes for more than two thousand years, and in the late fourteenth century it became the capital of Timur's empire. The Registan, a square framed by three madrasas with tiled façades in blue, turquoise and gold, is its best-known sight. The madrasa of Ulugh Beg dates from the 1420s, and the city is a UNESCO World Heritage site.
