On this excursion you will visit the main monuments of Samarkand with a professional Uzbek guide. Groups are limited to 20 people, so you will be in a relatively small group. The service of a French/English-speaking guide is guaranteed, and your guide knows the city well — useful even in the high season when finding a guide can be difficult.

You will explore Samarkand on foot, taking a pleasant walk through its principal sights and avoiding the need for transport. Meal and entrance fees are not included, giving you the freedom to choose where to eat and which monuments to enter.
