Ich bin wohlbehalten von meiner Reise nach Turkmenistan zurückgekehrt – und erneut war es eine hervorragend organisierte Reise. Die Betreuung vor Ort durch meine Reiseleiterin Natascha war äußerst fürsorglich. Sie stellte sicher, dass alles reibungslos verlief und die Unterkünfte meinen Erwartungen entsprachen. Während der Rundreise vermittelte sie mir mit fundiertem Fachwissen spannende Einblicke in das Land. Eine Übernachtung in Ashgabat wurde kurzfristig in ein anderes Hotel verlegt: Statt des Hotels Yildiz, das für Regierungsgäste reserviert war, wurde ich im Hotel Archabil untergebracht. Dieses erwies sich als exzellenter Ersatz – ein ebenso hochwertiges 5*-Hotel, in dem das Frühstücksbuffet sogar noch besser war als im Yildiz. Auch die beiden Inlandsflüge verliefen pünktlich, und die insgesamt sieben Fahrer, die mich auf meinen Fahrten durchs Land begleiteten, sorgten mit komfortablen Fahrzeugen für eine sichere und angenehme Reise. Ich habe viel gesehen, faszinierende Eindrücke gesammelt und einen tiefen Einblick in die Geschichte Turkmenistans erhalten. Ein herzliches Dankeschön an alle Beteiligten vor Ort und an Ventus Reisen für diese unvergessliche Erfahrung!
