Your journey
Meet the makers behind Uzbekistan’s silk and ceramics, then place those living traditions beside the architecture of Samarkand and Bukhara.
This is a suggested itinerary. Before booking, we’ll agree your daily pace, accommodation, transport, inclusions, and price with you.
Day-by-day itinerary
Days 1–2 · Tashkent
Begin with the capital’s museums, decorative arts, market life, and underground architecture.
Days 3–5 · Fergana Valley
Visit Kokand, meet ceramicists in Rishtan, and see traditional silk production in Margilan rather than simply shopping for finished pieces.
Days 6–8 · Samarkand
Read the patterns and techniques encountered in the valley through Samarkand’s monumental tilework and Timurid history.
Days 9–12 · Bukhara
Finish among Bukhara’s trading domes, ateliers, and courtyards, with a free half-day for your own interests.
Let’s discuss your comfort
