Highlights

Turn your journey from Samarkand to Bukhara into a 2-day desert adventure, with Aydarkul Lake, a camel ride and an overnight stay in a traditional yurt camp. Enjoy the lakeshore and desert scenery on day one, followed by dinner and a night at the camp. On day two, visit Nurata, a ceramics workshop in Gijduvan and Rabati Malik Caravanserai before arriving in Bukhara. This option starts with hotel pickup in Samarkand and ends in Bukhara; it does not return to Samarkand. Private air-conditioned transport, one night in a yurt, lunch, dinner, breakfast and entrance tickets are included. A separate sightseeing guide is not included. Private refers to your transport; other travelers may also stay at the camp. Swimming depends on the weather, and evening music depends on availability.

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.

Top-ranked sights in Samarkand: Registan Square, Gur-e-Emir Mausoleum, Shah-i-Zinda Necropolis.
