Highly recommended tour company
Highly recommended tour company They worked with me at length on my desired itinerary and pricing helped me obtain my visa last-minute and negotiated a wonderful trip at a price acceptable for both parties I had been in touch with 15 different tour companies and ultimately chose Stantrips because of their responsiveness flexibility fairness and general trustworthiness As a solo female traveler safety and security are of the highest priority for me especially when traveling to a country where I would be camping in the desert and knew my iphone would not work both my guide and driver via the company made me feel incredibly safe and gave me an amazing tour I could not have asked for more respectful and knowledgeable guides and they ensured every aspect of the trip went smoothly and without incident Furthermore several months after I left Hudaikuli and his team helped recover some items for me in Turkmenistan and got them back to me safely and I am infinitely grateful for this kindness as they had no obligation to help me but did anyway I honestly cannot recommend this company enough especially for first-time travelers to Turkmenistan

Effortless and an Exceptional Trip
Stantrips recently organized an exceptional trip to Turkmenistan for me Every detail was handled with foresight ensuring a smooth and enriching journey I traveled through Ahal Mary Dashoguz and Balkan four of the five regions in Turkmenistan and though it may seem daunting to travel here I didn t have to worry even for a single second From the very beginning of reaching out to the Letter of Invitation overland transportation and internal flights everything was marked by meticulous planning and flawless execution My guide Nuri was a standout element of the experience His intelligence practical approach and gracious demeanor made exploring Turkmenistan both informative and enjoyable His deep knowledge and engaging storytelling brought the country s history and culture to life Stantrips commitment to excellence and Nuri s outstanding guidance created an unforgettable travel experience Highly recommended for anyone seeking a well-organized and enriching adventure in Turkmenistan

We can fully recommend Stantrips without hesitation
We decided to travel to Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan at the end of 2023 Maksat responded quickly to our initial contact and sent us a first offer We adapted this to our needs and Maksat checked it to see if it was possible We then flew to Turkmenistan in March 2024 Entering the country with the invitation letter went very smoothly We then travelled for a week always together with the great guide Gurban and with different drivers We did the following - Sightseeing tour of Asgabath- Night train to Turkmenbashi- Yangykala Canyons- Nohur with an overnight stay with a local family- Merv- Darvaza Crater overnight stay in the yurt- Kunya UrgenchWe then travelled on to Uzbekistan and visited the cities of Khiva Bukhara Samarkand and Tashkent In Uzbekistan we travelled without a guide but we also booked the transfers and hotels through Stantrips The whole trip was wonderful We felt that we were in good hands at all times Gurban adapted to us and our wishes and responded flexibly Everything went smoothly the driver and guide were always on time everything worked perfectly We can fully recommend Stantrips without hesitation

Stantrips are the best
Stantrips are a great company We have travelled to over 120 countries and this company and especially Hudaikuli were an absolute pleasure to deal with Turkmenistan was a dream destination for us and a lot of our concerns about travel in this country were completely wrong Nadya our guide found us at the border and took control of everything and it went very smoothly and exactly as Hudaikuli had described We then proceeded to the Gates of Hell and a night at a Yurt Camp in the desert which for us was the perfect experience despite a long drive to get there The next day we drove to Ashgabat and our hotel there was amazing and we got to explore on our own the area around the hotel The next day Nadya took us on the perfect city tour and wow Ashgabat has to be seen to be believed The local lunch was also amazing in a beautiful restaurant But the highlight for us was our time at the horse stud and a ride on the famous Turkmen horses We cannot recommend Stantrips highly enough for creating a tailor made tour at a great price for us and making our time in Turkmenistan so perfect We cannot wait to visit again

I searched for Turkmenistan travel
I searched for Turkmenistan travel agencies on the Internet and this travel agency responded to me the fastest I finally chose this one with an affordable price to start a three-day and two-night trip to Turkmenistan The tour guide helped us with the customs procedures despite the language barrier which saved us time Thank you very much The driver and tour guide were very friendly and explained everything We arrived on time even though the road conditions were not good It was a pleasant trip

This was my second Tour organized by STAN TRIPS
This was my second Tour organized by Stan Trips Last October i went on a 1 week guided Tour of Turkmenistan I was so satisfied with every aspect of Turkmenistan sightseeing that I contracted Stan Trips again to handle the itinerary for the visit to the 4 STAN countries Kazakhstan Kyrgyzstan Uzbekistan and Tajikistan Again it was truly exceptional I had a personal Guide and Driver that met me at arrival in each country They were great and the itinerary was super A balance of history culture and nature In all again I was very satisfied and felt it was a good value
