Which Apps to Download Before Your Uzbekistan Trip

A handful of apps installed before you fly make independent travel around Uzbekistan noticeably easier.

Taxis

Yandex Go is the main taxi app in Uzbekistan’s major cities, working much like Uber, with card or cash payment.

Google Translate with offline Russian and Uzbek packs comes in handy at small teahouses and bazaars where English isn’t common.

Google Maps works reliably across the country, including intercity routes. It’s worth saving key route points for offline access in advance.

Your mobile carrier’s app, to buy a local plan or eSIM before you even land — saves you from hunting for a phone shop on day one.

The official Yo’l Tanlov / eticket.railway.uz app or website, for buying “Afrosiyob” tickets between cities without a station visit.

Service names and availability can change — check the current options before your trip.
