This was a beautiful tour and I'm so…

This was a beautiful tour and I'm so grateful for the experience! My flights were changed and my tour was adjusted to accommodate my schedule. From the time I was picked up at the airport until the time I was dropped off, all was lovely. Serdar is an excellent guide!

Wonderful experience

He took great care of me throughout the two days of my trip.

He provided detailed explanations of the sights and answered all my questions—he’s incredibly knowledgeable.
I didn't encounter any problem during the trip, but it’s reassuring to know that he would definitely come to help if anything were to happen.
He’s a wonderful guide who offers generous hospitality and pays close attention to every detail.

When you leave, you will be definitely unwilling to say goodbye to him!

Trip to Derweze

I contacted Karakumjourney.com website to organize a trip to crater "Gate to Hell" and a small village of nomads 90km before it and response was prompt. We had a guide Serdar who is very knowledgeable, skilled driver and reliable person. He shared historical information about Ashgabat, cooked delicious BBQ in desert and presented us small souvenirs. I can highly recommend this website and they guide if you're planning to visit different sites in Turkmenistan.
