Local customs
Many travellers visit Uzbekistan to see part of the historic Silk Road, a succession of ancient routes used by traders and merchants linking the East to the West. The country’s location at the crossroads of several different ancient civilisations leads to an enthralling melting pot of cultures and wonderfully friendly local people.
Samarkand Fortress, Bukhara and Khiva’s mosques date back through the ages and are essential stops on any visit to Uzbekistan. The country is a harshly governed police state which manages to remain extremely friendly – you’ll be surprised at how welcomed you are made to feel!
“I’m sure you will enjoy it, I have been on three solos holidays to date and the people I’ve met have been great.”
“I’ve been travelling with Solos for nearly 20 years, on and off. The reason is for exactly what you want – you meet like minded people… and have loads of fun!”
“I’ve been on loads of trips with Solos over the years and can honestly say you will not regret booking your 1st one!”
“The feeling you have once you go away on your own is worth all the nerves before! I was so very anxious the first time but now having done it 4 times, I love it!”
