  • Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan Highlights Tour 15 DAYS reviewer 1
    · April 23rd, 2024
    We had a fabulous 2 weeks on our tour! Nadine our guide in Turkmenistan made our visit special. Made sure we knew all the history of the country and was like our daughter taking us around. Our guides Bek & Javlin in Uzbekistan couldn’t have been nicer. Made sure we tried all the local cuisine and beer. Very attentive at all times. It was such a pleasure touring their beautiful country with them. On occasion we had to go to Plan B but it was just as good as Plan A. If looking for a great adventure in Central Asia do not hesitate to book with them as you’ll have an awesome experience like we did.
