Turkmenistan is an unmatched country with vast deserts, wide avenues, and historical and natural sights unrivaled anywhere else. From the Darvaza Gas Crater to the stunning architecture of Ashgabat, our best Turkmenistan tours take you everywhere. Turkmenistan has a long history on the Silk Road, as caravans crossing the vast Karakum Desert would stop at oasis cities like Merv. However, most of the local population lived a nomadic life, traveling across the desert (the famous Akhal-Teke horses were prized for their speed and endurance in the desert). After becoming the Turkmen Soviet Socialist Republic, Turkmenistan gained independence in 1991, and with abundant natural gas reserves, the country quickly developed (the Darvaza Gas Crater being one such gas field). Whether you begin with the modern streets of Ashgabat, or the ruins of ancient Merv, or the prehistoric and unchanging Karakum Desert, booking the best Turkmenistan tour is a decision you will not regret. Advantour's years of experience with the finest guides, restaurants, and hotels ensures that your journey through Turkmenistan will truly be memorable.
