Very well planned small group tour to Uzbekistan. Accommodation and food was excellent - including a night in a yurt. I booked a single spot and was very well looked after. Our drivers and guide were excellent. Hope I get another chance to book with YellowWood

A small but professional and friendly organisation. From our recent experience in travelling to Usbekistan, we can highly recommend them. The price is competative but standards very high. Hotels were great and restaurants superb. X3 very generous meals per day. Outstanding, was the lunch we took in the work room of an embroidery store. Lots of delicious salads and meats throughout the tour but our tour guide looked after my wifes vegetarian needs very well too.
Our guide was informatative with an enclopaedic knowledge of Usbekistan and European history from BC to 20th century as well as cultural and social history, and geographic links with other countries.He ensured best places in restaurants and frequently beat the crowds at busy tourist spots, having great relationships with tourism and local people.
All entrance fees were paid, making this a very economic tour.
YellowWood are great at communication. No query goes unanswered, almost immediately. A slip up with a hotel room,for one of our party, was dealt with promptly with a response from local agents in Uzbekistan and YellowWood staff in England. In all, x4 responses to resolve the issue. Very impressive.
As you will see, we were very happy with our tour and have no hesitation in recommending YellowWood.

This company employs staff who go the extra mile to ensure you have a memorable trip. Their attention to detail is exemplary and their availability when responding to queries is instant. They must have staff on duty 24hrs a day.
The in- country guides (Uzbekistan) are very knowledgeable and have a genuine desire to ensure everyone is looked after and able to get the most from the tour.
We were taken to many interesting and off the beaten track places which made the trip very special.
Although the temperature in Uzbekistan was dropping after their scorching summer, it was still very hot by UK standards and a little more down time in the heat of the day would have got our vote. High quality hotels were used and we appreciate the company using local and family run hotels rather than the international chains. Excellent choice of restaurants and I appreciated Kamol’s efforts to find me vegetarian options. Would absolutely use YellowWood Adventures again. Thank you team

From the first contact to the last goodbye by our guide, my experience with everyone at YellowWood exceeded my wildest expectations. Their level of professionalism along with their love of adventure makes this the best service of this kind imaginable. We rode reindeers with the herders in Northern Mongolia and it was one of the top experiences of my life. If you want to experience unique travel opportunities that focus on the place you are visiting, with an emphasis on local providers, at an affordable rate, look no further. YellowWood is the absolute cream of the crop. They make it anout the whole journey, and what a journey it was!

Highly recommend doing the YellowWood Moroccan adventure. Seamless transitions from the City to the atlas mountains. From the moment of meeting our driver at the airport for transportation to our Riadwe felt well care for. Flexibility in booking extra days to explore the city. Custom hike with an experienced guide. We had some weather issues (thunderstorms out of season) and had to rejig our hiking schedule. The Kasbah staff and our guide took care of everything without issue. Wonderful food, people and scenery. The Toubkal trek is challenging but seeing sunrise in the mountains is worth it. We are a couple in our late 50's in good physical shape. We enjoy poking around new places and soaking up the atmosphere. If you like getting off the beaten path and travelling to see and do something different I would highly recommend YellowWood Adventures.

My sister, friend, and I had a fantastice trip to Mongolia! As three older women with some age issues related to walking, we were a bit nervous about embarking on this adventure. However, we needn't have been as our drivers and guides were there whenever we needed them with so much patience. We didn't miss out on anything. And, before the trip, the Yellowwood staff also quickly answered all our numerous questions.

This tour offered us something I have never experienced on a tour before. From home stays to eating at local establishments, we really felt like visitors to the area and not just tourists looking on from a distance. We got to know local people which isn't easy given the language barrier. But our guide was always there interpreting for us and our driver too even though he couldn't speak English, he also made sure we connected with everyone we met on the trip.

I can't say enough about how well this trip was planned and carried out for us. A trip of a lifetime, really!

We have just returned from a nine day trip to Mongolia. We looked at many different tour companies and chose YellowWood Adventures due to their responsiveness and their ability to put together an itinerary that was tailored made to our exact requirements. We were not disappointed.

The highlight of the tour was a stay with a family of Eagle Hunters in Western Mongolia living in a Ger. Very much a bucket list ticked off for us.

The tour was seamless with everything provided and no hitches at all.If you are concerned that Mongolia is not really on the tourist map and therefore have doubts about travel to this beautiful country rest assured you will be well taken care of.

I went riding with my 11-year old daughter and as you can imagine, there was not a lot of room for error relative to my traveling days of old where you are free to take things as they come.

The YellowWood Adventures team looked after us from start to finish and most importantly tailored the trip for us. Our father-daughter experience will be remembered fondly forever.

Yelllw Wood provided us with a tailor-made trip. we had an amazing experience, met heaps of wonderful people and take home memories of unforgettable views, Thanks to the UK and Leh teams 🙏🏼

Being guided through landscape and Buddhist culture of Ladakh with a knowledgeable and resourceful guide. Stopping at home stays especially interesting, with friendly hosts, giving insight into Ladakhi life. Rigzen led us gently through the
treks, adapting as necessary to cater for (my) aging knees and shortage of breath on uphill stretches. Rigzen was calm and sensible on return from Nubra when faced with (exaggerated) reports of road closure on the pass. Also safe and careful drivers in a comfortable car. We always felt safe and learnt a lot.

We recently returned from an unforgettable trip to Mongolia with YellowWood Adventures, and we cannot recommend them highly enough! From start to finish, everything was thoughtfully organised and expertly executed.

The itinerary struck a perfect balance between adventure, cultural immersion, and breathtaking natural beauty. We had the opportunity to stay with a local nomadic family, which was a truly special experience.
We explored vast and remote landscapes and gained a deeper understanding of Mongolian traditions—all in a way that felt authentic and respectful.

Our guide, Enkhbat, was knowledgeable, warm, and passionate, and looked after us throughout the trip from keeping us well informed to ensuring we had the best ger and food!
Our driver, Puredavaa, was excellent—negotiating the off-road tracks, river crossings, and sand dune crossings expertly. He was always on the lookout for wildlife and any photographic opportunities for us!

This trip exceeded our expectations in every way. If you’re looking for a unique and enriching travel experience, we wholeheartedly recommend booking with YellowWood Adventures!

I did the Trans Bhutan Trail via Yellowwood which was great. Haba (local tour guide) was incredible and would definitely recommend . I have done multiple tours through different companies and he is world class.

Accommodation is great however a lot of it is buffet food - would have been nice to have some local restaurants mixed in.

Itinerary changed which is fine (and fully expected) but I think it would be beneficial for more people from YellowWood to do the tour to understand the itinerary they are setting.

Our wonderful Rumbo a Picos drivers/guides Darios and Alejandro were incredible! They made sure we always knew meeting times and places, what was happening for the day and went out of their way to make alternative arrangements when weather or other factors meant we couldn't do what was originally planned. Loved their sense of humour too.
We loved the places we visited too (just wish I knew how to pronounce them).

I travelled with YellowWood on the Oman Hiking Adventure. YellowWood has exceptional communications, both before and during the trip. All my questions were answered promptly and thoroughly. The itinerary was the perfect mix of moderate hiking and cultural experiences. I highly recommend our guide Daniel and YellowWood Adventures.

I recently partnered with YellowWood Adventures to organize a bespoke yoga retreat to the Canary Islands, and the experience was exceptional. They were responsive, attentive, and delivered on every request with care and precision. Their attention to detail and expertise in off-the-beaten-path travel made the trip truly special. I highly recommend YellowWood Adventures to anyone seeking a seamless, thoughtfully curated adventure.

My first contact with YellowWood was a call in which very friendly person from the YW team took lots of time to answer all my questions. The organisation of the trip was very good. Super cool program, lovely locations, great local hosts, super nice travel mates from different countries....and an absolutely amazing experience of seeing the northern lights. A big thank you to everyone for this wonderful adventure!

Great support throughout by Yellowood. In country the guide and team were great. Such a wonderful exposure to the country if Bhutan, although calling the trip a "trek" is quite a stretch, more of a short trail walk as each leg was downhill ( after driving to the top of a pass!) so don't expect any Himalayan trekking. Some of the accommodation was way bove expectation, most times the views from my room were stunning - overlooking a valley and/or a direct view of dzong ( old fortress)

Yellowwood are a really efficient and well organised company who really take care of their clients. Costa Rica was such a wonderful mix of experiences and our guide, Aberlardo, was outstanding. This is my second adventure with Yellowwood and, at 86 years old, I hope it will not be my last!

Just returned from a trip to Oman arranged by YellowWood Adventures and what an amazing time we had! Everything was seamless from the time we touched down in Muscat till we left and the itinerary ensured we got to experience the real Oman from desert to mountain to oasis's. The company excels at finding the hidden gems of Oman and our guide, Daniel, with his vast knowledge of the region’s history and geography, gave us such insight into the country and its culture! I would highly recommend this company to all!

Incredible and unforgettable trip to Oman. Our guide Daniel was amazing — wonderfully knowledgeable, unbelievably kind and took great care of every detail to craft a fabulous experience. The team at YellowWood were brilliant — helped us coordinate a private custom trip, answered all of our questions as we planned itineraries and were lovely to deal with. Highly recommend this entire crew! We will be booking another adventure with them again soon.
