Nargiza and her team were wonderful! Professional and responsive - a huge thank you to them all. We worked with Nargiza to create our itinerary, and she organized her team to make it all happen. She thinks of everything! All of our requests within her ability to accommodate, were met. We had a truly lovely trip, and highly recommend Nargiza to arrange your trip to incredible Uzbekistan.
We had a wonderful experience, learning to cook Plov and Samsa with Nargiza, Orza (spelling?) and the whole family. We were collected from our hotel and driven to Nargiza's house where we donned aprons and got stuck into the preparation of the dishes in their courtyard kitchen. Plov was cooked in the outdoor cooking area while the Samsas roasted indoors. They do have a Tandoor oven outdoors, but there were only two of us and it didn't seem worth firing it up just for us! After the food was ready, we spent a really enjoyable hour or so around the dinner table with the whole family, discussing all manner of things. The cooking was excellent. The conversation was just brilliant. Everything we could have hoped for.
Had a really good session with Nargiza, she is an amazing tour guide. We made plov that day - begin with purchase of ingredients in markets, preparing the ingredients and cooking the plov step by step. Her home made wine is amazing too! Would highly recommend this to anyone visiting Samarkand and would love to learn more about plov
