Brilliant excursion, amazing guide!
shelleyk06, October 2026
Brilliant experience visiting Armisoy, Chimgan and Charvak. Our guide Bek absolutely made the trip, he was super friendly, funny & very informative. He taught us loads, not only about the places we visited, but about Uzbekistan as a country.
We were picked up from our hotel by car and taken to the minibus where we started the day trip. It’s a full day excursion lasting about 8 hours. At the first stop you take 2 cablecars to the top of the mountain where you can grab coffee, go for a walk and enjoy the amazing views. At the second stop there is an option to take a chairlift to the top of that mountain which is definitely worth it for the views although not for the faint hearted. We paid £30pp for the excursion and the cablecars & chairlift had an additional fee (~285K som pp total). There were 2 minibuses in our group approximately 20pax.
