A classic all-inclusive route from a tour operator: the capital, both shores of Issyk-Kul, Karakol, yurts at Son-Kul, a guide-interpreter and all transfers.
A ready-made programme for first-timers in Kyrgyzstan who want to see the highlights in a week without thinking about logistics. We book the hotels and yurts, meet you at the airport and drive you along the whole route. Day one is Bishkek. Then the north shore of Issyk-Kul and Cholpon-Ata, two days in Karakol with a hike in Jeti-Oguz and a Dungan dinner, the south shore with Fairy Tale Canyon and an eagle hunting show. Then over the Dolon pass to the high-altitude lake Son-Kul: a night in a yurt and a horse ride. The last day is Kochkor with a felt workshop and the drive back to Bishkek. Groups of up to 12 people, with a guide-interpreter throughout the tour. Private dates and routes on request.
