The Uzbekistan Family Tour combines three ancient cities - Tashkent, Samarkand and Bukhara - with interactive museums, amusement parks, crafts classes, and performances that are interesting for children. The Polytechnic Museum in Tashkent is a favorite for its science-based exhibits, while Samarkand hosts masterclasses in papermaking and cooking traditional pilaf. Enjoy a ceramics class and a puppet performance in Bukhara, before returning back to Tashkent. Combining visits to historical places with an active cultural program, this is the best tour for keeping busy while also fully immersing yourself and your family in the life of Uzbekistan.
