I'm looking into how to get to Bukhara. I've been offered a shared taxi at USD 80 (200,000 soms). The Lonely Planet claims it should be about USD 15. I realise it's been a year since this was written, but still ...
I'm wondering about buses, but believe they go from Urgench. Anyone got any ideas as to what options I may have, other suggestions or moments of inspiration?
The biggest problem is being a traveller on my own, I've not been able to find people to combine with for a taxi - it'd make negotiating a lot easier!
