Traveler•Written February 2025It looks like the message came from TourRadar and not from Stantrips, the travel company in Turkmenistan. Have they ceased trading? I don't want to book with a company that will take my money but not provide the tour.
- StantripsOperator•Written February 2025
We provide the Letter of Invitation for your tourist visa and your visa can be collected upon arrival using the LOI.
- StantripsOperator•Written February 2025
When you pay through TourRadar, your booking is protected. In the rare event that the operator is unable to run your trip, you will receive a full refund.
