Uzbekistan Holidays 2024/2025 | Wendy Wu Tours Australia

Central Asia's cradle of culture for more than two millennia, Uzbekistan is the proud home to a mesmerising collection of architecture and ancient cities, all deeply infused with the fascinating history of the Silk Road.

Bukhara, Samarkand and Khiva, all Silk Road cities, hold some of the world's most exquisite Islamic architecture, with fabulous mosques, medressas and mausoleums, as well as half-hidden desert citadels and hectic bazaars.

Uzbekistan has a rugged and rocky landscape with deserts, mountains and valleys interspersed with pockets of fertile, green land. The combination of spectacular countryside and classic Islamic architecture make this nation a visual delight. Uzbekistan is also an extremely friendly country, where you will feel genuinely welcome by the people you meet.

Review for Ultimate Uzbekistan

This is a fascinating holiday, especially if you get the guide we had with his excellent knowledge. The only proviso I have is that there are4 long stretches when you are on your feet, 3 hours one day, and on some days there are lots of streps to ascend and descend.. The holiday gives you a real insight into Uzbekistan both today and in the past embracing characters such as Ghengis Khan, Tamerlane, Alendar the GReat, Cyrus the GReat and Darius. We eve4n got to have lunch in a Yurt and dinner in an Uzbek's house.

Great itinerary with superb guide. Good quality hotels in good locations. Wonderful architecture and interesting history.
Highly recommended.

Review for Ultimate Uzbekistan

For me, the holiday of a lifetime.
A very comprehensive itinerary, going places other operators don’t (eg. Nukus) we saw sights that very few British have seen.
Good hotels, and the location of the hotels in Khiva, Bukhara and Samarkand was excellent.
We had an excellent guide, whose knowledge was extensive.
Food was plentiful, possibly too plentiful and I’m on a strict diet now!
On a serious note I don’t think this should be a Level 1 Physical rating, there are lots of steps at times, walking on uneven surfaces and not insignificant distances. One person on our trip had mobility issues and missed out on quite a bit. But it didn’t inhibit me and I am so glad I have taken this holiday.

Booking Experience for Ultimate Uzbekistan

I did everything on line and it was very easy. I have confidence in Wendy Wu as I have used them for China, Japan, Ecuador and Cambodia/ Vietnam already. I have always wanted to do the Five stans, however a level "5" holiday is too much for me these days. Seeing Uzbekistan was a level "1" and within a capable price bracket and was offering a discount, I jumped straight in.

Booking Experience for Treasures of Taiwan

Very helpful advice from Alexia in a pre booked phone consulation after she had researched a selection of less strenuous tours suitable for me. It was great that she had recently been on the Uzbekistan tour I selected as I was able to answer my specific questions. I also booked the Treasures of Taiwan tour for Spring 2025 and she'd also experienced that tour too.

Booking Experience for Ultimate Uzbekistan

Great range of tours with packed itineraries.
Great guides.
Met Sandra at the Destinations event in Manchester and it felt like we had met a long lost friend, so warm and helpful.
I then decided I wanted to change my flights, this was done with ease by Lucy at their customer service department, and she provided exactly what we wanted.

Feb 25, 2024

Booking Experience for Road to Samarkand

We wanted to book Uzbekistan and spoke to the rep. Alicia 4 or 5 times for information. It’s an expensive holiday off the beaten track but we were reassured sufficiently to book. We have been to China with Wendy Wu before and had a very well- organised holiday so we were inclined to book with them again.
