His favorite route a flight from Tashkent to Khiva; then from Khiva he goes by bus, by shuttle bus, or by car – to Bukhara and Samarkand.

His favorite city is Sacred Bukhara. We all remember the case when an Italian fashion designer who quite seriously intended to take the Company’s tour guide with him to Italy. Shukur did his best to persuade the guide not to leave, as the Company itself needs and appreciates such specialists.

Umida is keen on dancing, sports, traditional and Sufi medicine. Her favorite city is Khiva, and the route she prefers to all the others is from Khiva to Samarkand via Bukhara and Yangigazgan. Fall is, of course, her favorite season because Bukhara looks so beautiful in fall…

Anvar Zaitov

 Graduated from Tashkent State Institute of Oriental Studies.  

 Anvar is heart and soul of the team, a very responsible and punctual person. He manages to solve his tourists’ problems with the same ease as he wins a game of chess! He is keen on reading and playing football; and as for poker – you should better not try to play with him!

He has an excellent sense of humor and a reputation for being a kind-hearted person. All the tourists and his colleagues feel safe and free when he is near. His favorite city is Bukhara with its Samanids Mausoleum, the unique ancient construction having been carefully preserved by Bukharians up to the present day.

Anvar’s favorite route is from Tashkent to Samarkand, then to Bukhara through Shkhrisabz and Pamir foothills. He goes back by plane, and then – to the Chimgan mountains. He is a romantic person who loves mountains so much, especially in winter which is the very time when mountains fill you with their unique energy.

Anvar is the favorite tour guide for the French tourist woman who has travelled over 30 countries but over and over again comes to Uzbekistan, back to “her” Bukhara which she likes so much.

Employed to company in 2009. She has a good skill of working in international companies. Kristina took classes at Universidad of San.Francisco, School Cambridge.

This young lady is keen on travelling and each time she comes back after a journey she brings a map of the cities she visited, for her collection of maps. Romantic, creative, attentive!

There are many tourists she remembers quite well, she can tell a lot of funny and touching stories from her practice but those who best of all stuck to her memory were the first three Spanish tourists from Palma de Mallorca she worked with.

The Chor-Bakr necropolis in Bukhara city is Kristina’s “place of power”.  Her favorite route is Silk Road, from its beginning to end, with all its turn-outs and unremembered paths. She likes Navruz Holiday and mid spring, the time when everything around blossoms and comes alive and when tourists come to our warm country.

Sayfullah Akrom

His favorite place in Uzbekistan is Registan Square with its three completely different and amazing madrasahs, and breathtaking spacious and panoramic view. Well, this may not be quite original, but who says people are supposed to be fond of nothing but original things..?

Sayfullah is always courteous with girls, has an excellent sense of humor, he is the one who will help you any time you need. His hobbies are collecting ancient coins and... unusual names of his tourists!

Anastasiya Markina

In november 2010 came to the company. She graduated from the Uzbek University of World Languages. Anastasia is a person who is completely and forever in love with her profession. She has been officially working in tourism since 2007; even as a child she accompanied her father who worked as a driver for a travel company and took her along with him to the mountain gorges and historical sites. It was the time when Anastasia had decided to commit herself to tourism and then successfully put her decision into life.

She seems to be a princess of Bukhara in her previous life…as she is fond of oriental beauties’ style of bijouterie, national scarves and hand embroidery which suite her so well. Her hobbies are dancing, music, foreign languages, and reading classic and fantasy books; she always tries to find the one to discuss what she has read with. Anastasia is the living refutation of the “blonde girls” myth.

The elderly couple from Australia, Helen and Terry Jones, were those tourists she remembered best of all. The man was allergic to salt, and the Australians together with Anastasia tried to find a tea-house (chaykhana) where unsalted pilaf could be served...

Her favorite route is Tashkent-Samarkand-Shakhrisabz-Nurata-Bukhara-Khiva-Tashkent-Chimgan-Charvak, which is the journey from civilization to the wilderness, then to the eastern fairy tale and finally – to the mountains.

Bakhrom Rasulev

The principle he follows is "Never say never!” as he believes there is nothing impossible. Those travellers who, together with Bakhrom, visited the most exotic and remote parts of Uzbekistan, could see that for themselves. Bakhrom likes people who take an interest in our country and can incessantly talk about it. He always has something interesting and surprising to tell the guests about his country, even if they come twice a year for many years like his frequent guest Horst Kanwischer. The impressions he is all the time ready to share are inexhaustible.

His favorite route is Tashkent-Khiva, then, certainly, to Nukus city in Karakalpakstan to reach the Aral Sea, enjoy seeing karst forests, flag-towers of ancient Khorezm, a ship graveyard in Muynak and an ancient desert, and from there - to Bukhara by any ground transportation. The final part of the way is from Bukhara to the blessed city of Samarkand, by caravan road.

He loves summer time when the sun shines and gives its warmth to people. The 45 degrees heat, hot sand… and a cool shady oasis – that is the environment in which he feels comfortable.

Venera Farkhutdinova

She has been working in tourism since 2008. Graduated Professional College of Tourism.

For Venera, it is very important what kind of impressions her tourists gain: she does everything in her power and beyond that for them to leave with only fond memories of their journey. That is because her off-hour job is her major hobby. Venera is an intelligent, decent, accurate and attentive young lady; her motto is “Never give up!”.

She loves mountains and her favorite city is Bukhara. She esteems responsible and reliable working partners who know their business well, and rejects people neglecting their job duties.

Alexandra Tursunova

Alexandra graduated from Tashkent State Pedagogical University, Faculty of English Philology; since December 6, 2011 she's been working with the Company. Alexandra considers the possibility to show to the foreign guests the entire country and to demonstrate its color and hospitality to be most interesting thing in her work.  

In her spare time she practices floristics; her life principle is tertum non datum – no development makes degradation.

For Alexandra, it is hard to define the place she likes most of all, for every corner of the country is favourite and dear to her. But there is a special place that kindles her interest and makes her heart beat rapidly: it is the Aral Sea with its fantastic canyons, salty shores and beautiful sunsets.

She believes that each season is beautiful in its own way. Not only the tourist seasons – spring and fall –but also winter sometimes may be the best time to walk around the city. And the best thing is to go by the route from Tashkent to Urgench, or back, and breathe the smells of the spring and the blossoming flowers.

Anastasiya Bisagalieva

Anastasiya graduated from the Tashkent State Institute of Oriental Studies, the Faculty of Japanese Philology. She started her working with the Company in April 2012.  

She is fond of her job in particular and the entire industry in general; she started in the Company as the guide, and now she is the inbound tour operator.

Anastasiya likes to communicate with new people, in keeping with the best traditions of Oriental hospitality, where every guest is a source of new information and emotions. She believes routine and monotony to be the worst punishment for a creative person.

Her hobby is dancing. This is the thing from which she derives mush pleasure and a charge of positive energy. And, which is most important, the dancing makes it possible for her to take her mind off thoughts and express her feelings through her dance.

She believes there are no things that would be impossible to do; the realization just takes certain time.

Her first tourists, of course, stuck to her memory best of all. When she was a 4-year student she accompanied a group of four elderly Japanese people. She remembers them with the feeling of warmth and gratitude. She says it looked as if it was them who accompanied her rather than she was… Of course, the first experience cannot go without a worry: once, her tourists got lost in Thailand, in the rain, and Anastasia could not sit still all night long worrying about them together with their relatives. Being always in touch and treat your tourists like your kindred people is the characteristic of a good tour operator.

Anastasiya so much loves the mountains and Chimgan. Her favourite route is from Tashkent to Khiva, through the desert and the Lake Aydarkul. She loves spring as it is the beginning of tourist season, and the time when everything around blossoms and people unknowingly smile to each other.
