Samarkand
Extended Shahrisabz Tour from Samarkand — Tamerlane's Birthplace in Depth
About this tour
A longer version of the classic Shahrisabz trip — with an extra hour for exploring details and a more relaxed pace. The route covers the same main points as the shorter version: the Kitab pass, the 'Chingachgook' filming location, the ruins of the Ak-Saray palace, the Dorut-Tilovat and Dorut-Saodat memorial complexes, and a tandyr-gusht lunch — but with longer stops at each site and time for photography. This is a separate offering from the company (not a duplicate of the six-hour version), designed for travelers willing to spend a bit more time on Shahrisabz for a deeper look at Tamerlane's hometown. The price includes the guide and transport; meals are paid separately.
