Tashkent Central to Samarkand Destination Reviews

David

Tashkent to Samarkand train(operator: Nasaf) was good, but the return trip from Samarkand to Tashkent train(operator: Sharq) was REALLY BAD. They should replace the seats of entire fleet. The seat condition of the return train(Sharq) was worse than trains in India.

Everything is great, its just that the aircon wasn't working(?) Because it was very hot. And the electrical outlet also was not working.
