Highlights

Without a long and eloquent description we want to inform you that we have just created a perfect 4 day private tour for your magical all year round vacation in Kyrgyzstan. To be more precise, this tour had already existed in our arsenal of custom trips for a long time. And it was getting requested so frequently that we thought it would be unfair or even silly not to upload it onto our website. Now, as the justice has been celebrated, you can grab this tour and rock out your vacation with us! During this tour you'll be trying: ship cruising on the second largest alpine lake in the world, horseback riding up some mountains, hiking in jaw-dropping canyons, the delicious Kyrgyz cuisine, participating in the traditional hunting with eagles and archery, relaxing in hot spring pools and much much more!
