About Tohirbek
Hello and welcome!
My name is Tohirbek — or just Tohir — and I'm a professional tour guide and driver based in beautiful Tajikistan. I specialize in organizing and leading tours across the country’s most breathtaking destinations, especially the legendary Pamir Mountains.
With a degree in Tourism and Hotel Management and years of hands-on experience, I run a small licensed travel agency that focuses on authentic, safe, and unforgettable experiences. Whether you're looking for cultural immersion, scenic drives, or mountain adventures, I’m here to help you explore Tajikistan like a local.
I’m also a passionate cook and enjoy preparing local dishes for my guests during the journey. And if you're lucky, I might even bring out my accordion for some traditional music around the campfire!
In my free time, you’ll find me hiking or trekking through the mountains — it’s my favorite way to connect with nature and discover new trails.
I look forward to showing you the magic of the Pamirs and beyond!

An unforgettable journey on the Pamir Highway: Highly recommended!
Our trip took us through the stunning landscapes of Tajikistan, exploring the Seven Lakes and driving along the legendary Pamir Highway all the way to the Chinese border. We booked our tour through Tohirbek, and although we didn't meet him in person—he entrusted us to a local driver named Habib—the entire experience was absolutely flawless.
Unlike other situations where the 'contact-only' system can be disappointing, Tohirbek's choice of driver was spot on. Habib was incredibly professional, attentive, and always ready to help us navigate the various challenges and vicissitudes we encountered along the way (and given the rugged nature of the region, I assure you there were quite a few!).
We are extremely satisfied with the level of care and attention dedicated to us throughout the entire journey. Everything was handled perfectly, and we absolutely recommend Tohirbek and Habib to anyone looking to explore this magnificent part of the world.

Hello, good afternoon. The experience was very, very positive. We loved the journey, and everything went very well. As for Tohirbek, he was largely responsible for making sure everything went so smoothly. He was kind, attended to all our needs, resolved issues, and drove prudently and professionally. We would be delighted to recommend him. He was a very friendly person, and we all got along like good friends. Now Tohirbek is our friend. By the way, if you are with him or see him, give him a big hug—even though I’ve already given him one.

Could not have hoped for a better guide for the pamir!! He’s local, speaks English very well, has a degree in tourism so he knows the country very well, takes initiative and made a plan tailored to our needs and adapted it perfectly based on the weather!
He also drives carefully and is very fun!
This is one of the best groups I have ever had. Luca, Maxim and Alex were amazing guests, too kind and supportive. We had very good time despite the weather which was a little disturbing in Khorog and Khuf valley.
Thank you guys so much for your trust and for travelling with me. I wish you all the best and hope to see you again in Tajikistan 🇹🇯

Wow. It's difficult to describe how fantastic our trip with Tohir really was, but for sure you could not find a more competent, more personalble driver than him and one who's rates are really good value for money. I'd given Tohir an itinerary for a 13 day trip from Dushanbe to Osh, including a journey to Jarty Gumbez and Shaimak. We couldn't do these elements as we were too early in the season and the tracks were dangerous with only one vehicle. Tohir went out of his way to ensure these 'lost' 2 days were filled with a couple of experiences we would not have had otherwise (a trip to the fabulous hot springs at Maidan and a trip out to stay with nomads) - both were wonderful & I'm sure were better than our original plan. Nothing is too much trouble for Tohir and he was always ensuring we were OK without being overbearing with it. A really lovely guy to spend 2 weeks with in one of the most scenic places you'll ever visit. Could not recommend Tohir enough - book him if he's available, you'll not regret it!!
Simon and Helen were amazing guests. They were really cooperative and supportive all over the itinerary. Their understanding of the situation with the road to Jarti Gumbez (where we couldn't make it) made the journey even more interesting . Thank you for your kind words and being very generous. Best wishes. Tohir

Tohirbek est un très bon conducteur, prudent, professionnel, gentil, à l'écoute de nos demandes. Il connaît très bien sa région et nous à permis d'effectuer de belles rencontres et de voir de magnifiques paysages. Merci à son frère pour l'accueil à Douchanbé et l'organisation du trip.
Si nous revenons au Tadjikistan, nous ferons appel à eux de nouveau. Je recommande à 100%.
Merci à vous.

We traveled for 1 week with Tohirbek across the Pamirs and it couldn’t have gone better.
Tohirbek is an absolute legend. His english is perfect and his driving skills are unmatched. I only wish I had more time. You will not leave the Pamirs without a smile on your face when travelling with Tohirbek. Looking forward to coming back and meeting Tohir again. Loved every minute.
All went well. Great and professional people. I learned many things from Shimon and his friend! Thank you for travelling with me.
Best regards
Tohir

Tohir has been an amazing driver and guide. He was very flexible and offered me several options to make the trip better and better. He had contacts everywhere and could get information about what there is to do in other villages. The car is very comfortable and reliable and Tohir checked it everyday to make sure the ride is smooth and pain free. He also helped me get the GBAO permit before I even arrived to Tajikistan.
The late Pamir Highway trip (end of December) went well and smooth. My guest Nazir was was great!

Tohirbek has been very helpful for the organization of our trip to the Pamirs. We have been in contact with Nazrudo who provided very timely and helpful information and supported us with transportation and accommodation. I would definitely recommend this travel agency and be in touch again if I ever come back to Tadjikistan (hopefully!). Thank you again Nazrudo for taking care of us during our visit!

Nazrulo and Tohirsky were extremely helpful in our almost 2 weeks of travel through the Pamirs and northern Tajikistan. The cultural and communication barrier was almost non-existent and they were always eager to give advice and recommendations.

Very professional since the beginning. Nazrulo and Tohir form a great team. Nazrulo helped us design and solve questions for the tour and do all the prearrangements and Tohir was in charge to guide us and explain everything while keeping us entertained.
Due to the early time of the year we went some roads were still closed but they managed that with a lot of flexibility offering us alternatives or even pushing the day longer to make sure we could see everything.
The local experience couldnt have been better as we met lots of locals and could experience the Nawruz celebrations too. Accommodation wise they adapted to our daily budget and have options for any kind of traveler.
Would definitely recommend!
