One of the best tours I've ever had, from one of the best guides I've ever had! The whole experience was amazing, from start to finish. Gozel sent such detailed emails and answered every question beforehand. We were met at the border as arranged, and helped with everything. We had fabulous drivers throughout the few days. But for me the star in the crown was Aiza, our guide. She was the best person, very easily to get along with, she translated and guided and haggled prices for us and told us everything we needed to know, and answered our many questions. She was amazing. The trip to Turkmenistan was also super interesting and was not what I had expected. I loved seeing the huge monuments and the bazaars full of locals and the immense burning gas crater... the night in the yurt was unique. Everyone was super friendly. Aiza also took great photos of everyone. The historical sites were super authentic. Honestly, I had the best time. I would recommend this tour, this company, and Turkmenistan in general to everybody. The locals are very eager to share their country with more tourists. It is well worth a visit.

日本の方にもぜひDarvazatourをお勧めしたいので、日本語でレビューします。
ヒヴァからブハラに抜ける2泊3日のシェアツアーに参加しました。自分を含めて計6名のグループでした。

初めて問い合わせたときから、メールのやり取りも迅速で安心感があり、ビザ取得のサポートや出発前の案内もとても丁寧でした。

ツアー初日は、トルクメニスタン側のイミグレーションでガイドさんと合流します。建物に入ると名前を書いた紙を持って待っていてくれるので、迷わず会うことができます。その後の入国手続きもしっかりサポートしてもらえます。無事に入国するとドライバーさんも合流し、ツアーが始まります。

移動距離が長いため、毎日車内で過ごす時間は多めです。かなりの悪路を走る区間もあり、体力的にはなかなかハードでしたが、それも含めて旅の思い出です。(アシガバードからウズベキスタン国境までの道路は新しいので快適です。)
現地ガイドは、アイザさんという女性でした。とてもフレンドリーで、一人で参加した私のこともよく気にかけてくれました。
ちょうどツアー中に誕生日を迎えたのですが、動物好きの私に合わせてアラバイ(犬)のグッズやドライフルーツをサプライズでプレゼントしてくれました。ツアー中のお客さんの様子をよく見ているんだな、と感心しました。

最終日も、国境を通過するまでしっかり見届けてくれます。
チームの連携も素晴らしく、問い合わせからツアー終了まで一貫してサポートが行き届いていて、安心して旅を楽しむことができました。

長くなりましたが、参加を迷っている人に少しでも役に立てば嬉しいです。トルクメニスタンはとても素敵な国でしたよ！

Just finished a trip through Turkmenistan with Darvazatour and couldn’t be happier with how it all went.
They handled the whole thing smoothly — visa support, logistics, everything. Visited Ashgabat, the ancient ruins of Merv, the Dinosaur Plateau, spent the night at the Darvaza Gas Crater (Hell’s Gate), and passed through Turkmenabat. Covered a lot of ground without any stress.
The guides and drivers were professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely good guys to travel with. Everything was well organised, the vehicles were solid, and the overnight at Darvaza was a real highlight.
If you’re looking to explore Turkmenistan properly, these guys know what they’re doing. Highly recommended.

I had a fabulous time exploring Turkmenistan. The Darvaza crater and Ashgabat city were particular highlights. Aiza is a fantastic guide; she is intelligent, knowledgable and able to answer questions. I would recommend Darvaza to others, they are extremely helpful when it comes to planning your time in Turkmenistan and assisting with the visa process.

I was able to experience sunny Turkmenistan and its incredible culture through Darvaza Tours. It was truly an unforgettable experience where I was able to make some wonderful memories that I will be sharing for many years to come. Darvaza Tours made the Visa application process so easy, and were helpful and responsive every step of the way. I applied several months before my tour started, and by the time I was ready to fly to Turkmenistan I had all the information I needed for a smooth entrance.

Once landing in Ashgabat, I was greeted by Aiza who was absolutely wonderful and helpful. Her willingness to share her culture and country with me made the experience special, and by the end of my 3 day trip I considered her a good friend. Our drivers in Ashgabat and to Darvaza were also fantastic, and we shared many good memories along the road.

Darvaza Tours was able to give me one of the most incredible experiences of my life and there will always be a place in my heart for sunny Turkmenistan!

Awesome experience from the start to the end. Getting the LOI was a breeze with Darvaza tour letting us know exactly what information was needed and they always responded in a timely manner which really made us feel confident about the tour.

Upon arrival in Ashgabat we were greeted by Aiza who turned out to be a fantastic tour guide - she covered everything we wanted to see and made sure that we felt comfortable at all times. I couldn’t be any happier with our time spent with her throughout the tours.

Our drivers were professional at all times and really gave us confidence as they navigated some difficult road conditions.

I would without a doubt recommend Darvaza tours to anybody including my friends and family that decide to make the journey to the wonderful country of Turkmenistan. I hope to return again one day. Thank you so much

We enjoyed the 2-day tour from Ashgabat to Darvaza gas crater to Shavat border with Darvazatour. Tour team and Gozel is super helpful and responsive since the pre-trip planning. Really appreciate their support throughout our journey and deliver a safe trip. Our tour guide Agamyrat is very caring and helpful to guide us through these 2 days. Appreciate his kindness and help. Thank you very much! Highly recommend this tour guide and this company!

Thank you Gozel for all your assistance up til the start of the tour, with putting together our applications for the LoI and any questions I had about the trip to Turkmenistan! Thank you to Agamyrat as well for being a great friendly guide and giving very helpful explanations, and to the driver as well (sorry didnt get his name!) for his experience and expertise in navigating difficult roads in record time.

Had an amazing time with our guide, Mekan. He had everything set. All the tours, food, and had great knowledge about the places that we visited. Expressed great love and passion for Turkmenistan. We saw it exactly in the way he sees it, and would love to visit again! If you were to book anyone to show you this amazing country, it would be Mekan.
