Hi Avocet,
I would err on the side of caution, and recommend that you visit Uzbekistan this year.
We've had it in the brochure for a few years now so it's possible that it'll be rested from the end of 2014.
Numbers for later this year are:
12th September departure: 18 travellers currently booked
10th October departure: 16 travellers currently booked
7th November departure: 5 travellers currently booked
Kindest regards,
Julia
