This trip is a great way to see Samarkand if your time is limited. It was very easy to get everywhere we needed to be. I felt very safe and we were guided along the whole way. They were very good to pick us up on time in a nice car at our hotel, the trains we used were nice, not crowded, with assigned seats, and A/C. Our tour guide was great to get us through the many different sites in a timely manner so we could see all that we could in that timeframe. Many places required cash for souvenirs, but there were ATM's everywhere. He gets you back to the train station with plenty of time to spare. This trip is well worth it. So many great memories.
