Kudu Travel Traveller Reviews

It was good to experience a peaceful and up-to-date Muslim country which welcomed western tourists. It was a thoroughly well planned and expert-led fortnight including walking amongst dramatic scenery where a surprising number of birds can be spotted. There are sandy and stony deserts, mountain plateaus, venerable trees and both ancient and well-designed modern buildings and museums. Highly recommended.

Kudu Travel clearly does thorough research so one can be confident of fitting in everything possible at a good quality. Somehow their walk locations manage to be free from other tourists. The whole group is small and largely like-minded. Their leaders are always friendly experts.

Our 14 day holiday exploring Uzbekistan was a most enjoyable experience appreciating the cultures of before and after the Old Silk Route. It was extremely well organised and the people of Uzbekistan were most hospitable.

Kudu Travel organises trips sympathetic to the local people and culture. They manage t get away from the main tourist route and plan a variety of interesting activities. They provide a personal touch and seek out different places to eat and stay and with an all inclusive holiday they offer value for the cost.

A really good insight into a remarkable country - full of history, brilliant buildings, and very friendly people.

We have traveled with Kudu six times and all our experiences with them have been good. Some have been very good.

A wonderfully relaxed, and relaxing, holiday on board a boat which took us round many of the islands off Croatia. We spent a bit of time each day on shore, wal- king and swimming. Food on board was very good, either lunch or dinner each day, and the other meal ashore in a splendid mixture of restaurants. The crew were attentive and looked after us very well, as did our leader from Kudu who was, as always, very informative and good company. It was a wonderful break.

Kudu is a small firm which looks after its clients extremely well. Excellent research is done before they take their clients on holiday. Nothing is overlooked and they really make a holiday special.

I have read, commissioned, edited and published books about the Great Game, Central Asia and Islamic art and architecture for years and to be in the Registan at Samarkand as the sun was setting and the swifts swirling was just breath-taking.

This was the fourteenth time I have travelled with Kudu. I think that says everything anyone needs to know about the company!

A chance to see the magical cities of Samarkand, Bukhara, Khiva & Tashkent, did not disappoint. Watching dawn slowly fill the great Registan square in Samarkand, a breathtaking example of medieval Islamic architecture, with light is a moment to savour. The ceramic tiles begin to glow & myna birds wake up in neighbouring mulberry trees & start chattering. Another highlight was standing under an ink black night sky out in the steppe looking at a million bright stars sharp & clear.

A thoroughly good company which always produces excellent holidays.
