Turkmenistan in Central Asia has a desert climate, freezing in the winter and one of the hottest places on earth in the summer. November to March is cold in Turkmenistan, with a small amount of rain. Temperatures in the capital Ashgabat range from zero to 15 ºC (32-59 ºF) over the winter, with rain of about 10 mm per month. It’s a pleasant time to visit the country and visit anything from the ancient ruins and Silk Road cities to the outré white marble of the capital largely built in Soviet style. The desert at night can be particularly chilly, so warm clothes are definitely needed in the depths of winter.

Here is a small selection of the kind words our clients have said about us recently.
We truly had an amazing family vacation in Thailand...We cannot wait to do a trip to Vietnam and Cambodia with Remote Lands in the future.
My wife and I traveled to Nepal with Remote Lands, and had an incredible time. This was our fourth trip with Remote Lands and the trip was planned perfectly with every detail accounted for.
As the trip progressed strangers became friends. Particularly special was the effortlessness: perfect logistics, never having to worry about anything, and, of course, the charming and thoughtful way you organised everything.
You are invited to Remote Lands’ signature Aman Jet Expeditions, in partnership with our friends at Aman. These are small group journeys designed for people who usually travel independently.
