We had a really great experience with Javelon in Uzbekistan. He is genuine and friendly guy, and was punctual. The tour was great, and he knows a lot about Tashkent and its history. Some of the stories and information he shared were so interesting that I actually ended up wanting to read more about Tashkent afterwards. He also went out of his way to help us with shopping, gave us good recommendations, and even suggested things we could do after the tour. His driving was safe and the car was clean and well maintained. Overall, he was more than just our guide. we made a friend in Tashkent. Would definitely recommend him to anyone visiting Tashkent
This was an incredible tour. Javlonbek, my guide, was communicative, punctual and attentive. As we got to know each other better, he customized my tour and even went out of his way to help me at the pharmacy! Highly recommended- he's an excellent tour guide!
great afternoon with Javlon. Loved hearing the history and seeing the architecture around town.
We had a wonderful tour with Javlon! He was very knowledgeable, nice and friendly. We had great conversations during the tour. Javlon adjusted easily to our personal interests and made it a very enjoyable day for us. We highly recommend spending the day with Javlon learning about Tashkent!
My 2 friends and I had an excellent experience with Javlon in Tashkent. He was engaging, interesting and thoughtful throughout the day, making the tour both enjoyable and informative. His car was clean and comfortable, and he provided bottled water which was much appreciated. The tour lasted around 7 hours, and everything was well-paced and tailored to our interests. He was attentive without being overbearing, and clearly takes pride in what he does. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and personable guide in Tashkent.
Javlon delivered the Tour as expected, sharing information and always attentive to our wishes and available. Everything went well, so we recommend him!
We had a great half day with J. and saw and heard a lot about Tashkent. The tour is highly recommended to get an impression of the city in a short period of time.
