Silk Road Mountains & Monuments Traveller Reviews

A fascinating holiday visiting the cities of Tashkent, Bukhara, Khiva and Samarkand and the Chimgan and Nuratau mountain ranges.

Mountain Kingdoms, Wotton-under-Edge, Gloucestershire, GL12 7BT

We were blown away by the fascinating sights in Khiva, Bukhara & Samarkand. The spectacles just got better and better as we progressed, the Registan being the jewel in the crown. The Uzbek dishes served in the city restaurants followed a set pattern but were varied, the salads being a particular hit. Spending time in the quiet mountain regions away from the bustle of the tourist sites was a welcome contrast. We loved the homestays in Nuratau, especially the creative home cooking. A great trip.

We met an enthusiastic rep at the Destinations Show, with whom we discussed various options for visiting the famous Silk Road sights in Uzbekistan. From that point on the contact with Mountain Kingdoms was always professional, helpful and friendly. Booking was straightforward and everything went very smoothly thereafter.
