Essential Uzbekistan
Tashkent and Exploring
Uzbekistan is a land of turquoise tiles, towering minarets, and breathtaking monuments. It’s a place where history whispers through the timeworn stone of its magnificent buildings. These structures, many commissioned by long-dead rulers, are a testament to their ambition to leave a lasting legacy. As you wander the sun-soaked streets of Samarkand, Tashkent, and Bukhara, you’ll feel like you’ve stepped back in time. Uzbekistan is still relatively new to the tourism scene, but it’s an ideal destination for adventurous travellers. Explore mosques, mausoleums, and madrassahs that have been restored after decades of neglect, and marvel at the stunning blue-and-gold tile work that shimmers in the heat.
Our “Essential” holidays are perfect for those who prefer to explore at their own pace, knowing that all their accommodation, transfers, and travel are taken care of by us.
