The historical cities and buildings surpassed my expectations but, more than anything else, we were overwhelmed by the friendliness of the local people, especially in Uzbekistan ...

Chris Knowles (St Catharine's 1960)

“I feel this is one of the best group trips on which we have been. From the start we were sure that great care would have been put into everything which could be organised beforehand, and we were correct.  Charles is a great leader and the local guides were a great help as well, so everything ran smoothly.  The historical cities and buildings surpassed my expectations but, more than anything else, we were overwhelmed by the friendliness of the local people, especially in Uzbekistan.  We all had numerous requests to be photographed with groups of smiling people and many were eager to practise their English.  Future travellers need have no fear about the reception they will receive in these two countries, so newly and happily independent.”
