Natural beauty in perfect company - Our day trip from Samarkand to Tajikistan was truly unforgettable and exceeded every expectation. We explored the stunning Seven Lakes (Haft Kul) in the Tajik mountains – each one more breathtaking than the last, with colors ranging from deep blue to jade green. The journey itself was already a joy, with scenic mountain views at every turn. A stop in the vibrant city of Panjakent added a cultural highlight to the day. The town buzzed with life - a perfect complement to the tranquility of the lakes. We were lucky to have three amazing guides: one from Uzbekistan and two from Tajikistan. They worked together seamlessly, were kind, knowledgeable, and made us feel completely safe and comfortable throughout the journey. A special shout-out goes to our driver, whose incredible skill allowed us to travel the unpaved mountain roads smoothly and safely – no small feat! Joining us were two lovely fellow travelers from Singapore, and together we shared not only laughs and stories, but also a delicious picnic by the river. The natural beauty of Tajikistan, paired with the warm hospitality of its people, made this day nothing short of magical. This was without a doubt one of the best excursions we've ever done – a perfect mix of nature, culture, and friendship. Rahmat! Tashakkur!
