    It’s a mix review because we had two operators on this trip; one in Kyrgyzstan and one in Uzbekistan. Everything as well organized in Kyrgyzstan (amazing meals, guide and driver) but things turned bad in Uzbekistan due to change of guide. Our guide in Uzbekistan was lacking in enthusiasm and just wanted to get the activities done so he could leave the group. It is true that the guide either makes or breaks the trip.

    Very disappointed with our guide [Marat] being drunk on the 2nd & 3rd day of the kyrgyzstan leg. He was replaced by Artem who was fantastic. He bent over backwards to make the rest of our time in kyrgyzstan enjoyable.

    Our first leader Nastia was very knowledgeable & would find out the answers to any questions if she couldn't answer them immediately. Nastia had prepared information including photos for us to look at eg wildlife and the vegetation. Our second leader Lochin Jurayev was very knowledgeable as well. Both leaders were very passionate about their countries went above and beyond what we expected to ensure we had the best experiences.
