Make Uzbek pottery, explore Silk Road crafts, and eat plov with local guides Yusuf and Julia on this hands-on Tashkent cultural tour.

“We had the pleasure of touring with Yusuf and Julia, and they made our first day in Uzbekistan unforgettable. From the moment they picked us up, we felt welcomed and comfortable in Tashkent. They shared so much interesting information about local culture, traditions, and beliefs, which helped us understand the city on a deeper level. The pottery course was a highlight—fun, hands-on, and the master really cared about helping everyone create a beautiful piece to take home. If you think it’s not worth it, you’re wrong—it definitely is! After that, we enjoyed a delicious plov dinner and had a long, friendly conversation that felt more like spending time with friends…”

We started with the Chorsu bazaar and bazaars in Central Asia always intimidate me because I have a lot of questions and just want to eat a lot of food. Going with a guide is a fantastic way to learn and interact with the locals and vendors there. Yusuf was such a good guide for this! The metro was one I had been wanting to visit for a long time and it was fun to learn the history of some of the prominent stations. The Tashkent metro can be very busy throughout the day, even…”
