Hi! My name is Gayrat. I'm a certified local guide in Bukhara since 2019. I work in 3 languages: English, Russian and Uzbek. I love my city and I want to show my ancient and eternal Bukhara to the visitors of our country.

Gayrat was incredibly adaptible and flexible as we pushed our tour to start late due to our train arriving late at night. With the limited time he had he showed us everything we wanted to see and truly covered Bukhara. He has an ability to inform that is both educational and interesting with a focus on what matters to his tour attendees. I really enjoyed our time with him and would have loved to spend more days exploring other areas. With Gayrat you not only get a tour guide, but also a historian, a philosopher, and a man of culture. I'd highly recommend you book a tour!
