Train Tickets
It appears, that it is not possible to book train tickets for Uzbekistan online yourself.I would like to get tickets before we arrive in the country (travelling for 12 days late July/August),
because berths on overnight trains might sell quickly. Also we want to get the train from Tashkent
to Urgench on the day we arrive.
I contacted Advantour, who say they can get tickets 30-40 days before the date of travel.Is this
a reliable outfit or does anyone have an alternative suggestions/ recommendations?
A search doesn't seem to bring up anything anymore...

I used Advantours to book both my train and plain tickets before arrival in September. They were very reliable - I also used them for a transfer when I arrived and the driver was great - took me to buy some beers on arrival, offered to take me somewhere to dinner (it was 12pm and I wasn't hungry..), changed my money at black market rates as soon as I met him and he provided me my tickets.I'm sure you can get the same services from other agencies, but I can recommend Advantours.

Easier, Asiatraveller, but certainly not cheaper. It's much cheaper to get themyourself in Uzbekistan...
