Experience the Timeless Charm of Khiva – A Guided Walking Tour with a Local

Welcome to Khiva, a city frozen in time, where ancient walls whisper stories of Silk Road traders, mighty khans, and centuries of culture. On this walking tour, I invite you to explore the magic of Itchan Kala, the walled inner city of Khiva and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

As a local guide born and raised in Khiva, I’ll take you on a journey through narrow alleys, stunning madrassahs, majestic minarets, and lively courtyards. We’ll visit must-see landmarks like the Kalta Minor Minaret, Muhammad Amin Khan Madrasah, Kunya Ark, and the Juma Mosque, all while discovering hidden spots most visitors miss.

But this is more than a history lesson — it’s a chance to feel the spirit of Khiva. I’ll share local legends, cultural insights, and personal stories that bring the city to life. Along the way, you’ll get tips on where to eat, shop, and explore more during your stay.

We begin our journey at Ata Darwaza, the main entrance to the walled city of Itchan Kala. This impressive gate once welcomed caravans and traders traveling along the Silk Road. I’ll share how this gate played a vital role in Khiva’s defense and daily life, and give you an overview of what to expect inside this UNESCO World Heritage site. It’s the perfect place to step back in time and start our adventure.

This stunning madrasah was built in 1851 by Muhammad Amin Khan, one of Khiva’s most influential rulers. It was the largest Islamic school in the region at the time, with space for over 250 students. I’ll share stories about the Khan’s ambitious vision, the purpose of madrasahs in the past, and how this building still stands as a symbol of Khiva’s rich educational and architectural heritage.

We contacted Sarvar already while planning our trip to Uzbekistan as we received high recommendation from our acquaintance. Already in this first phase was he extremely nice and helpful, always available with his suggestions. Upon our arrival to Khiva he went out of his ways to make us feel comfortable and get to know his city through many interesting stories and info. We also took a three-day tour to Aral sea with him. He showed us many exceptional places, his knowledge is very vast and conversations in the car while our drive about Uzbek life were priceless. We were travelling with a 7 year old and he was always mindful of her, adjusting the tempo. We coudn’t have wished for a better guide to explore this beautiful part of the world. We highly recommend.
