some border info req. (Central Asia)
So next year we will be taking the Georgia/RUS border then onto Astrakhan - Atyrau.
From here I want to take the Beyneu to Kungrad (UZB) border which I found a little info on, is this well travelled?
I would like to enter Turkmenistan on a 5 day transit visa from Nukas and re-enter UZB at Turkmenibat/Bukhara. Has anyone entered Turkmenistan this way before? As I would really like to see the gas crater.
and I take it I need to get visa's sorted long before I get to any of these borders. I was thinking of trying to get it all sorted in Istanbul/Ankara before heading east. Any better options? sound like a plan? there will be 2 of us in a 4x4.
Thanks,
G
