Testimonials
We loved our trip to Uzbekistan!
Fabulous destination – stunning architecture, glorious textiles, interesting culture and good food.
Nicole was a great tour leader – always available to offer help and advice, and very entertaining! Her enthusiasm is infectious.
The itinerary was well planned; we stayed in comfortable hotels and although there were a couple of minor hiccups with the buses those moments provided us with a good laugh and happy memories.
We have already booked our next tour with Red Door Tours!

Joan – Uzbekistan Textile Tour 2024
Trip of a lifetime
I was very lucky to travel on the first tour of Uzbekistan run by Nicole Farrell of Red Door Tours. It was a magical experience and the trip of a lifetime. We travelled all around the country. visiting exotic markets, beautiful mosques and monuments and visited local artisans who kindly shared their expertise with us.
The people were always generous, kind and always helpful. We travelled as a group of 14 on private buses, trains and planes. Nicoles expert guidance and flair for logistics meant this all went smoothly and her warmth and good humour meant it was always fun.
I would thoroughly recommend Red Door Tours for anyone interested in seeing exotic locations with a small group of like-minded people at a very reasonable cost.
