DETAILED INFORMATION ON TOUR
Hello, Kyrgyzstan!
◎ I will meet you at the Manas Airport in Bishkek. The city is ready to embrace you with open arms!
◎ We will start getting to know the country from its capital: we’ll see Ala-Too Square, the changing of the guard at the national parliament, the historic buildings at the Old Square: a monumental legacy of Soviet times, the imposing Erkindik Boulevard, and peaceful Oak Park.
◎ We'll snack on kurut and wash it down with energizing maksym at shoro-ezheskis!
◎ I'll tell you the history of the country, all about its notable celebrities, we will visit the places where numerous revolutions took place, and immerse ourselves in the local vibes.
◎ For dinner, we'll have a real Asian feast in a colorful teahouse (chaikhona).

Day 1
Ala-Archa reservation park, poppy fields, and Chon-Kemin valley
◎ After breakfast, we'll "teleport" ourselves from the eastern city to the local Swiss Alps - the beautiful Ala-Archa Gorge, covered with spruces and junipers, above which mighty glaciers soar.
◎ Absorbing the beauty and powerful energy of this place, we'll take a walk to a viewing platform, enjoy the view of the "wedding of rivers", and have a picnic by a mountain stream.
◎ We’ll then start our journey towards Issyk-Kul river: look at the foothills, the banks of the Chu River, and soon find ourselves in the picturesque Chon-Kemin Valley. A kind, hospitable family awaits us there with an warm heartfelt welcome to their wonderful guest house.
◎ After a homemade feast, for dessert, we will be served a starry sky, mountain peaks under moonlight, and absolute silence...







Day 2
Through the Martian Canyons
of Kok-Moinok to Issyk-Kul


◎ In the morning, we head out for a trek through the incredible Kok-Moinok canyon. The journey might not be the easiest, but it’s definitely fascinating.
◎ Suddenly... we find ourselves either in Arizona or on Mars! Around us for many kilometers stretch giant formations of terracotta rocks of the most unusual shapes - creations of water and wind.
◎ Leaving Boom Gorge behind, soon we will see the azure surface of Issyk-Kul.
◎In the village of Kyzyl-Tuu, we visit a family business, a factory for making Kyrgyz yurts. Under the guidance of a master, we will assemble a yurt ourselves.
◎ Today, we are true nomads! And we will live in a real yurt camp. The place is unique. We travel right along the riverbed winding between mountain ridges of Ak-Sai. Ak-Sakal "Ilyich" and his family will be waiting for us, ready to introduce us to the intricacies of nomadic life. A campfire. Sparks fly to the stars.
Day 3
Hunting with Eagles - Wild Shore - Fairy Tale Sunset
Dawn on the shore of Issyk-Kul. We'll lounge on the beach.
◎ Today, we will get acquainted with an ancient Kyrgyz tradition — hunting with eagles. We will be participants in this exciting action. No living creature will be caused any harm during the hunt.
◎ Next - a horseback or walking tour along the wild shore of Issyk-Kul. We'll climb to the highest point in the area with a breathtaking landscape.
◎ Ever dreamed of visiting a Fairytale-world? We're going there! This is the name of one of the most impressive canyons in Asia. Among the rusty-brown, golden clay formations, you can recognize figures of animals and the walls of ancient fortresses. Depending on the weather and time of day, the rocks change their color and texture.
◎ We overnight in a cozy guest house nestled in an apricot orchard.

Day 4
Barskoon Waterfalls - Arabel Plateau - Karakol

◎ Today we head for the gold-bearing Barskoon gorge, famous for its waterfalls - we'll walk to the most powerful of them.
◎ If the weather allows, we'll go into space - the unearthly beauty of the Arabel Plateau at an altitude of 4,000 meters. Around are the tongues of gray glaciers, sheer cliffs, and not a soul to be seen, only eagles soaring above the harsh silence...
◎ After lunch, we'll relax on a secret beach of Issyk-Kul: just us and the azure blue of the endless mountain lake...
o By evening, we'll be in Karakol. We'll explore the merchant quarters of Russian settlers, a wooden Dungan mosque, and the carved Holy Trinity Cathedral.
Dinner will be cooked by ourselves in the home of a real Dungan family: you'll taste ashlyan-fu, ganfan, and mampar.

Day 5
Przhevalsky Museum - Yachting - Termal Spa
◎ After breakfast, we will visit the local market, then we'll stop by at the museum of the traveler Przhevalsky.
◎ Next, we'll start moving along the northern shore of Issyk-Kul. Endless fields, poplar alleys… on the left - the smooth surface of the lake, and on the right - the white caps of the Terskey Alatau mountain range.
◎ In Cholpon-Ata, we'll take a boat ride on the lake, with strawberries, cherries, and champagne! Bathing in the endlessly clear, azure open sea - an incomparable pleasure!
◎ After we are awaited by healing thermal springs. From an ice-cold vat to boiling water - and back! - like taking off five years with your own hand/
