About this experience

Khorezm has a cuisine all of its own. Its best-known dish is shivit oshi — bright green noodles made with dill — and tukhum barak, delicate egg-filled dumplings, is a local favourite you won't find elsewhere in Uzbekistan.

With a local host you'll taste regional dishes where people from Urgench eat them, and hear how the food of this desert oasis is different from the rest of the country.

  • Shivit oshi — green dill noodles
  • Tukhum barak dumplings

Questions

Do I pay when I send a request?
No. A request is free and without obligation. We check availability with the local host, then send you the plan and the final price. Nothing is booked until you confirm.
How is my experience confirmed?
After you send a request we contact the host for your date and group size, then reply by your preferred contact method with the details, meeting point and price.
What does "Price on request" mean?
Some experiences depend on the season, the group size or the host's schedule. We quote them for your exact date and group — there's no obligation to book.
Can you add transport to an experience?
Yes. Tick "Add a private transfer" in the request form, or book a transfer separately. Transportation is what we do every day, so pickups from your hotel or between cities are easy to combine.

Yes. Tell us where you're going and what you're interested in, and we'll look for a local host who can offer it.
