    I had a lovely few days exploring Turkmenistan with Manijik. The tour was very well organised, the hotels and restaurants were all excellent. Manijik is very knowledgeable and passion about his country and was happy to share his passion with us. Overall a good time was had.

    I had the absolute pleasure of touring Turkmenistan with Baky, and he exceeded all expectations. From the very first moment, he was warm, welcoming, and incredibly knowledgeable. His passion for the country’s history, culture, and people shone through in every story he told, bringing each location to life in a way that was both fascinating and engaging. He took care of every detail – from seamless logistics to thoughtful recommendations – making the entire experience effortless and enjoyable. His ability to adapt the tour to my interests, answer every question in depth, and add personal touches along the way made it truly special. Not only did I leave with a deeper understanding of Turkmenistan, but I also felt like I had spent the week with a friend who genuinely loves sharing his country. If you’re visiting Turkmenistan, do yourself a favour and book a tour with Baky – you won’t regret it.

    The tour was very well organized. The guide was very nice and had good knowledge. The stops were well chosen and spontaneous requests from us were taken into account, so we were able to see points that were not planned. If you like less traveled countries you should book this tour.

    Bonnie

    Asked on February 24th, 2025

    How would the visa work for Turkmenistan? Would I get the visa first and then book the tour, or should I book the tour first and will get an invitation letter from the tour company which I would then use to apply for the visa? Also, where would the tour start/ meet? At the airport in Dashoguz?

    Tour Details
    Visa
    • StantripsOperatorWritten February 2025

      Book the tour first then we will send the list of necessary documents for the LoI application. Once you get you LoI from our side, you can collect your visa at the border or airport. The tour starts at the border at Shavat near Dashoguz.
