A brilliant trip, covering the most important sites in Uzbekistan as well as lesser known places. The tour guide was kind, considerate, very knowledgable and lots of fun. Travelling in a small group was so much more enjoyable than some of the big bus loads we encountered. Another great trip from Explore!
