On November 15, 2024, Uzbekistan celebrated its top tourism companies at the GROSS Travel Awards ceremony. The award is organized by the State Committee for Tourism, the Ministry of Ecology, Environmental Protection, and Climate Change of the Republic of Uzbekistan, and GROSS Insurance Company.

Tourism in Uzbekistan is becoming increasingly accessible and plays a vital role in modern life. The country boasts 1,483 tour operators and travel agencies offering diverse travel experiences — from active sports and beach holidays to cultural, gastronomic, and ecotourism adventures.

 

Insurance plays a crucial role in safeguarding tourists against unexpected situations. GROSS Insurance Company, which provides 62% of all travel insurance policies in Uzbekistan, offers coverage in over 120 countries. Over the past five years, the company has paid more than $3.4 million for medical and emergency expenses.
