TESTIMONIALS

Hi Julie,
What a fantastic trip. We enjoyed it immensely and you are to be congratulated on your organisation. The guides were very knowledgable, professional and went out of their way to try and keep everyone happy. Bava was outstanding but both Veronica and Guyla weren't far behind. The food was great as were the hotels.

We had a varied group and we found a couple had some unrealistic expectations and needed to ask themselves why they were there. Their issues were generally outside the control of your company so were unsolvable; e.g.

Hi Julia, I loved the tour through the 5 Stan’s, although it was even more full on than I expected. Veronika, Gulya and Bava were excellent guides and all the hotels were good. I gather my room in Almaty had been recently refurbished as I liked the light, airy feel and of course the hotel in Ashgabat was amazing. I’m so pleased I was able to visit Turkmenistan, it was the highlight for me, but the border crossing was awful and if there is any way too avoid it, I know future travelers would have a nicer experience. Having 12 in the group meant we had the advantage of a large comfortable coach, but meal times were tedious as ordering took far too long, we also have 1 person with us that has a foot problem and is very slow walking. Jena, Joan and Lachlan who we’ve just met in Baku, all mentioned lots of free time on their 5 Stan’s tours, but we had none - no doubt due to the above factors. Having a 3 course lunch and dinner is far too much as the servings are large, which also means more time ordering and eating rather than free time or seeing other things. - d -
