Tips for booking in Turkmenistan
- Book a few days ahead on popular routes and in high season — night-train berths and island ferries often sell out.
- Check the pick-up/departure point in the ticket details: it may be a bus station, train station, pier or agent office, not always the city centre.
- Keep the 12Go e-ticket on your phone and carry your original passport; some operators require the name to match your passport.
