I went on this tour solo and my expectations were surpassed. Oriz was very professional and an excellent guide. He spoke fluent English so he taught me a lot about Tajikistan. Also, the drive felt much faster/shorter than what I expected. The views on the road and at the lake were amazing. This is must-do tour for anyone visiting Dushanbe
Beautiful Iskandarkul

We had an experienced driver who also told us history of Tajikistan and the area we were driving to. It is a long drive (almost 3 hours) and then a short visit to take photos before driving back. No lunch stop and the only bathroom stop was when we arrived at the lake to take some photos. There was no opportunity to hike. If you are looking for a trip to see an area with the mountains and other villages it is a good day.
Beautifull one-day trip

The trip was fantastic. Everything was according to the schedule. The tour guide Dilik was in front of the hotel with the driver even before 9:00 with a new and clean car. The driver safely drove us through the Tajikistani traffic rollercoaster (including the infamous "tunnel od death" - Anzob Tunnel) and we reached the lake, took a stroll on the beaches, had lunch in the restaurant and hiked to the waterfall and back. Then a ride to Dushanbe with obligatory car wash stop to remove the dirt and dust before entering the city.

Loved the place with scenic views. Guide and driver were helpful in sharing the history and cultural insights. However, do remember to get some Somoni as the lunch venue does not accept credit cards.
