Kyrgyzstan Adventure and Sport Tours 2023/2024

“This was a fantastic trip with a real mix of architecture, landscapes and cultures. Lovely tour guides and drivers to help and support. I was astonished by the sheer scale and intricacies of the buildings in Uzbekistan which contrasted with the beautiful snow capped mountains in Kyrgyzstan. My personal highlights were the overnight train and yurt camp experience!”

“This was a busy trip through three very contrasting countries. Almost a surfeit of historical monuments in Uzbekistan, just a glimpse of Kazakhstan and then the natural beauty of Kyrgyzstan. Some long bus drives but with plenty of "photo stops" and the drives are a great way to appreciate the scenery and see a little of local life along the way. The food was fine, and it was fairly easy to avoid meat, with plenty of delicious salads and pumpkin manti (a type of dumpling) usually available. Also some lovely soups, but often with unexpected chunks of lamb or beef. I did also enjoy the plov and the kebabs, as well as the fresh bread. The people were mostly friendly, welcoming and curious - we encountered no problems.”

“A fantastic trip overall with the most incredible facilitation through some magical locations. Well paced sections of the trip, lots to experience and a great time on Helena. Kyrgyzstan was stunning, especially the bush camping locations which were out of this world. The itinerary was well paced and allowed equal amounts of rest and active time which was much appreciated given the physical exertions on tour. Song Kol and Issy Kol locations were magical but also really enjoyed the hotel in Samarkand for a breather!”
