One of the missions of TRVL° is to photograph destinations that are unique but not yet over-photographed. We want to highlight these other well deserving places on our planet. Uzbekistan is definitely one of those places.
The whole country of Uzbekistan is just a visual marvel. From the ancient architecture to the silk road history to the beautiful people, there are photos everywhere. But what’s more, there are experiences everywhere.
Our goal at TRVL° is not just to guide you to great photos, but to great stories. We want to help you create not just images, but memories. Uzbekistan is full of wonderful moments.

TRVL° Trip Style
Comfortable Adventure: The TRVL° Photography Comfort Series blends discovery with ease, offering journeys that immerse photographers in inspiring destinations without sacrificing rest or relaxation. These trips are designed for those who seek meaningful adventure with a gentler edge. Capturing remarkable stories while enjoying comfortable accommodations, smooth travel, and a pace that prioritises both creativity and comfort.
What’s the accommodation like?
In the cities, the accommodation is great. We’ll be in a mix of boutique hotels and 4-star hotels. It’s very comfortable. We’ll also be staying one night in a remote and very unique yurt camp under the stars.
Is there lots of walking?
On all city-based trips there’s going to be some walking. It’s in the streets where you truly feel the city’s atmosphere and where you can capture those special street photos. However, the walking distances are not long, and all walks are optional. Alternative activities can be arranged.
Level 2 – Moderate: Expect some longer city walks and couple extended car journeys on bumpy or uneven roads. There is no hiking or seriously strenuous activity involved. The midday heat may be the main consideration which we are taking into account within the itinerary.

What is TRVL° All About?
In short, the motto is simple: “Explore. Adventure. Capture.”
At its core, TRVL° is built around travel photography, with every itinerary thoughtfully designed to create strong photographic opportunities while also encouraging real connection with the places we visit. You will come away with compelling images, but more importantly, with meaningful experiences, lasting memories, and stories that go far beyond the frame. We focus on stepping into the unknown, discovering new places, and building a genuine connection with the world around you.
TRVL° is not a traditional photography workshop, and that is intentional. Our journeys balance guided photography moments with space for independent exploration, creativity, and discovery, allowing photography to become both a creative tool and a way of engaging more deeply with each destination. We work closely with local photographers, tour operators, and guides to support and uplift the communities we visit, creating authentic cultural connections for our participants. If this resonates with you, you’re in the right place.

Your Adventure Tour Leader
Brendan van Son is a travel photographer with over 15 years of experience in the field. His work has been featured by major publications such as The BBC, The Guardian, The Toronto Star, National Geographic Traveler, and more. He has worked with major brand clients such as Amex, Volkswagen, Eddie Bauer, and so many more.
Brendan has a passion of nature and wildlife, but loves that every day in travel there’s a different subject worthy of a photograph.
Though Brendan is Canadian-born, he currently lives in Portugal. He can communicate with participants in English, Spanish, French, and a little bit of Portuguese as well.
Will there be a local photographer?
The short answer is yes. The long answer is that we’re still in the process of vetting local photographers to decide who we will be taking with us.
One of the goals of our new company TRVL was to empower the local photography community. So we want them involved in all our trips. We’re currently working with local operators to find a photographer that can not only help us lead this trip, but who we can help grow in their career as well.
