While the city of Khiva attracts travelers from around the world, it’s typically free from the bustling, lively atmosphere of well-traveled Samarkand and Bukhara, a pleasant mix of noteworthy attractions surrounded in desert stillness. The Islamic architecture and massive city walls are definitely worth the trip out here, and the traditional arts of carpet-making, wood carving and embroidery can still be observed within this ancient fortress.
The one-day Khiva City Tour is perfect for travelers with limited time to tour the region, as it will introduce you to all of the must-see sites and most popular landmarks within the city’s famous walls at a pace that is well-planned yet relaxed.
Begin your city tour of Khiva, a.k.a. the "Museum Under the Open Sky", a city that has been almost completely preserved from the past 1500 years up to the present day. You’ll take a walking tour around the architectural complex Ichan Kala, the historical center of Khiva and UNESCO World Heritage Site, with one of our knowledgeable local guides.
Your guide will meet you at your hotel, and after beginning your excursion at Kunya-Ark fortress, the inner citadel of Ichan Kala (Ichan-Qala), you’ll continue on to some of Khiva’s most famous sites:
