About

I grew up in the capital of Uzbekistan, Tashkent, and went to a Uzbek-Turkish high school where I also taught English and Turkish. After graduating high school, I decided to work in the telecommunications sphere, but during my university years, I worked as a night shift manager at one of the private hotels in Tashkent. It was doing this where I fell in love with tourism. So I joined the travel industry in 2007 after I graduated from university. I loved that in tourism I was able to talk to people from all over the world and learn so many things about their cultures, economies, lifestyles, and more.

Introducing my country to people from other countries personally motivates me to work in the travel industry. I hope that when people hear the names of our cities, Samarkand, Bukhara, and Khiva, they will want to fly here to visit — just like people do when they hear Paris or London!

Anvar's Travel Expertise

My expertise is designing custom travel packages around the region, including in Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Tajikistan, and Turkmenistan. I design trips for individual and group travelers, based on their specific interests and wishes. I am great at working with people and offering them a private, unique package rather than a standard tour. I can customize a trip to many different locations and include a variety of activities like sightseeing, hiking, horseback riding, culture, food tours, etc. It makes me so happy when the guests enjoy their travel and return, trusting me with their next trip.

Anvar's best travel experience

One of my most memorable trips was to Charyn Canyon in Kazakhstan. When traveling, sometimes you get the opportunity to see something really unique and you simply have to take it. This was one of those occasions. The sights of Charyn Canyon are superb, the hike down, the sheer natural beauty, and the scale of the place. I would thoroughly recommend going if in Almaty, not least because I would say that the journey there also gives you a real feel of Kazakhstan.

Why is Anvar the right travel expert

I have been traveling a lot since 2007 and I have my own experience as a traveler and guide, which helps me plan really great trips for other people. One of the advantages of working with me is that I am a local tour operator who can design and offer group and individual tours to countries that I have visited myself. I willingly share my own experience with people who wish to travel to any of the Silk Road countries.
