About This Tour
Unlike standard city tours that stay within Khiva’s walls, this experience takes you further to explore places that few travelers ever reach. You will walk among ancient ruins of Fortress, a 2,300-year-old desert stronghold, and visit a natural healing salt lake that locals have valued for centuries. The journey continues to Chodrahovli, the Khan’s summer palace, where you will discover the high ark, gardens, and unique Khorezm architecture while also experiencing authentic village life. With private transport, entrance tickets, and a professional English-speaking guide included, this short 3-hour trip combines history, nature, and culture in one unforgettable adventure.
