Uzbekistan trip planning advice.
Hello everyone!
I'm putting together a trip to Uzbekistan in October and would appreciate some comments about the planning. I think the schedule below is pretty reasonable but I'm pretty sure that it includes one too many days in Tashkent.
Consequently I wonder which of Khiva/Bukhara/Samarkand would best suit the extra time (or alternatively if there's anywhere else that could be fitted in - I tried to incorporate Nukus but couldn't quite make it work).
Anyway... your thoughts would be very much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
