Interested apart from economy flights

The pricing seems a little high but that is paying for the convenience. The Turkmenistan part alone would likely cost about AUD2000 seeing as they’re not covering the visa and entry cost. So, maybe you could save $1000-1500 by booking everything yourself.

The main reason I wouldn’t do a tour like this is the inflexibility in what you see. You’re taken to what they want (what they can make the most commission on - or what’s easiest) you to see. However, if you had no strong reasons to visit and were happy to just get a brief taste of each country, then it’s probably okay.

If you wouldn’t otherwise visit for five Stans, then I reckon this is a good trip at a good price.

And since they’re apparently going to turn off the Daza gas crater, I jump at the chance to go now if I hadn’t already. Overnighting there will be great.

Some things not in there - actually quite a lot to see in Ashgabat but can’t have everything. We are able to wander Ashgabat completely by ourselves so maybe you can extend the day there? Haven’t read the fine print.

You’ll obviously check out the named Hotels to make sure they are OK for you.

For the price, thumbs up from me.
