Uzbekistan Travel Itinerary Continued

Hello! Welcome back!

This week I wanted to continue with exploring my tentative itinerary for travelling Uzbekistan. So, without further-ado, let’s dive in!

Since watching the Geography Now special from last week, I am now interested in exploring the regions of Khiva and Bukhara after I visit Samarkand. When looking at this travel blog, they provide a solid 10-day itinerary idea for Uzbekistan, highlighting Khiva and Bukhara.

First, Khiva. According to this blog, this city is off the beaten path a bit and often overlooked by travellers (tempt me more, I’m intrigued). It boasts continued beautiful architecture and UNESCO World Heritage Sites, with it being relatively easy access and affordable from Tashkent or Samarkand via train or plane. In this blog, they feature some potential accommodation options at varying price levels. I typically opt for the cheaper options while travelling to be able to extend my stays, but sometimes ballin-out a bit more for comfort is nice after extended travel on a budget. This guest house is only 38CAD/night, which is a great mid range option. It offers breakfast, a steady social environment, tours, and is right in the heart of it all! I think I’ll give it a go for a couple of nights.

Tune in next week as I explore Bukhara and all it has to offer!
