Local architects of Silk Road journeys
We are a small team of locals who have spent our lives on the roads of Turkmenistan and Central Asia — and we design every trip like it were our own.
AyDor Travel was born from a simple frustration: the region we love was being sold as a checklist. Darvaza in one night, Merv in one hour, Ashgabat in a blur. We knew Central Asia deserves more — slower mornings in Bukhara, quiet sunsets over Yangykala, real conversations with the people who make this land what it is. So we built a company that does exactly that.
The way we work
Local, not outsourced
Every itinerary is built and led by people who live here. Our guides are the friends we grew up with, our drivers know the desert roads by feel, and our hosts open their homes because we know them by name.
Slow travel, done right
We refuse to squeeze five countries into a week. Fewer stops, deeper moments — that is the AyDor way. You leave with stories, not just photos.
Total on-ground support
Visas, permits, hotels, drivers, backup plans — handled. From your first message on WhatsApp to the airport pickup on day one, one team is with you the whole way.
Honest and transparent
Clear prices, clear plans, clear answers. If something is not worth your time or money, we will tell you before you book — not after.
What we promise you
- A real person answering within hours — usually minutes.
- An itinerary tailored to you, not pulled off a shelf.
- Vetted guides, reliable vehicles, and hotels we would send our own family to.
- Full visa and permit support for Turkmenistan and neighbours.
- No hidden fees. What we quote is what you pay.
