    We had a really good holiday expertly guide by Lela who was very understanding of our needs and abilities. Would also recommend Georgi are helpful and safe driver. Particularly enjoyed the dancing and singing. Perhaps a few less churches and a visit to an “industrial” winery at the start to put the bio wine makers into perspective. We really enjoyed the unscheduled visit to the food market and suggest this becomes a regular feature. Loved Georgia, the people made us really welcome. Highly recommended.

  • V

    Virginia

    Asked on November 8th, 2023

    Can you help me apply for Turkmenistan tourist visa? I am a US Citizen.

    Visa
    • Flo ToursOperatorWritten November 2023

      It is too late for Turkmenistan visa for November 15, 2023 departure. We need at least 60 days for applying Turkmenistan visa.

  • G

    Gloria

    Asked on March 17th, 2023

    can I ask about both the local & international flights - are any of them included in the price. Also do you go to the Darvaza crater in Turkemnistan on this tour

    Flights / Transfers
    Tour Details
    • Flo ToursOperatorWritten March 2023

      The only flight included on this particular tour would be the domestic flight from Khiva to Bukhara and this is only when there is a flight. Darwaza is about 4 hours drive north of Capital city Ashgabat. It has not got even simple economy class hotels and guests need to stay in traditional yurts with shared facilities and bathrooms. To enjoy a visit to there you need an overnight stay as it is a gas crater with an infinitely burning flame. Visiting it during the day time does not make any sense. Hence it is not included in our programs. We may arrange an optional visit to Darwaza from Ashgabat during the regular tour for interested persons. Price for only 1 person by a jeep including all services and guiding to Darwaza $ 579, if 2 persons then the price would be $ 365 per person

  • K

    Katie

    Asked on January 30th, 2023

    We would like a tour like this: Ashgabat, Mary, Dashoguz, Khiva, Bukhara, Samarkand, Tashkent, Khujand and Dushanbe. Can you offer? If so, can you offer a private tour to stay in the best hotels in each place and have good-condition cars?

    Accommodation
    Tour Details
    Transport
    • Flo ToursOperatorWritten January 2023

      We can arrange the best hotels, local home dinner and show experiences along with best places to see with professional guide of desired language. Upgrading the hotels from what we usually use (4-5 star) and arranging all on private basis would make the tour price a bit higher than group prices. Sending you the private quote would take 24 to 48 hours.
