Good to know

  • The morning high-speed train passes Urgench soon after leaving Khiva.
  • Night trains arrive in Tashkent in the morning. Check whether yours uses the Central or South station.

When to book

Seats usually last longer than on the Tashkent – Samarkand – Bukhara line, but weekends and holidays still sell out. A week or two ahead is a safe margin.

Tickets usually go on sale 45 to 60 days before departure. If your date is not on sale yet, request it anyway and we will tell you when it opens.

Stations

Urgench station

  • Urgench is about 35 km from Khiva, so it works as a back-up when Khiva trains are full.

Tashkent Central (North) station

  • Main departure point for Afrosiyob, Sharq, Nasaf and the fast Fergana Valley train.
  • A metro station sits next to the building, which helps at rush hour when taxis are slow.
