Mamad helped us organize a trip from Dushanbe to the border near Samarkand with a stop at Iskanderkul this past May. Although he travelled in a separate vehicle he did a great job at keeping us informed and checking in throughout the trip. We travelled with Ummed and his brother-in-law for our portion of the trip and thoroughly enjoyed our trip. It was truly travelling with good friends as we shared our experiences and took in the amazing scenery together. Both Mamad and Ummed speak great English and we never had any communication challenges. We found Ummed to be a safe driver with a great/comfortable ride for some of Tajikstan's more challenging roads. We'd highly recommend this trip for anyone looking to explore Tajikistan and hope to meet Ummed again in his home region in the Pamirs on a future trip.
We had an excellent trip. Mamad was an amazing guide driver we really enjoyed his company and his friendship I would recommend anyone to hire him should they require a guide or driver
