What you can expect

Escape the city and discover a different side of Uzbekistan on this unforgettable journey from Samarkand to Shahrisabz. Travel through breathtaking mountain landscapes and pass authentic local villages such as Qoratepa, Mingbuloq, Qizilbosh, Omonqotan, Qaynar, and Qangli — places where everyday life continues untouched by mass tourism.

Along the way, stop at hidden viewpoints where the mountains open up to reveal stunning valley panoramas. Visit local roadside markets, explore scenic photo spots, and experience locations where international films have been shot.

Take a break at a mountain-top restaurant or tea house, where you can relax, enjoy the fresh air, and optionally have lunch with incredible views.

Upon arrival in Shahrisabz, explore the birthplace of Amir Timur with your guide. Discover the majestic Ak-Saray Palace ruins, Dorut Tilovat, and Dorus Saodat complexes while hearing powerful stories of history, culture, and legacy.

After the guided tour, enjoy free time to explore at your own pace — walk, relax on benches, or rent a bicycle or scooter to experience the city in your own way.

Finish your day with a relaxing return journey, once again enjoying the beauty of mountains and valleys.
