Reviews
It was first time dealing with AFC Holidays. I had an amazing Uzbekistan trip. Post booking, every single info was shared and details were properly explained. Package prices are reasonable. Andrew and Heena were very helpful and cooperative. Always patiently answered my multiple questions amd took care of my requests. If you want to have better holiday packages, I recommend AFC Holidays.
We recently took a trip to Uzbakistan arranged by AFC Agency, and it was absolutely fantastic! The country boasts a rich history, and we had the pleasure of visiting several monumental historical sites in both Tashkent and Samarkand. A special thanks to Mr. Nay and Mr. Bibin for coordinating with their partners in Uzbakistn to ensure everything went smoothly. They were incredibly responsive and arranged everything flawlessly within a very short period. In Uzbekistan, Ms. Nargiza and her team, including Mr. Nader, Mr. Sardor, Ms. Lolla, and another wonderful driver whose name escapes me, were incredible. Ms. Nargiza was dependable and made sure we had no issues throughout our vacation. Mr. Nader is the sweetest person you could ever meet; he always went the extra mile and was genuinely enjoyable to be around. Mr. Sardor, our guide, has an encyclopedic knowledge of the city truly like a walking Wikipedia! Lastly, Ms. Lolla was so friendly, always smiling, and clearly passionate about her job, always making sure we were more than satisfied. Thank you, guys, for making our vacation unforgettable!
