From the gleaming towers of Astana to the tranquil alleyways of Bishkek, the Kazakhstan & Kyrgyzstan Adventure offers an unforgettable 11-day tour for those eager to explore Central Asia’s contrasts. This small group journey takes in the futuristic architecture of Kazakhstan’s capital, then sweeps south to the ancient Silk Road ruins of Otrar and the grand Yasaui Mausoleum, immersing you in centuries-old history and culture.
The adventure continues as you trace a dramatic transition in landscapes—from endless steppe to winding mountain passes. In Almaty, Kazakhstan’s cultural soul, you’ll soak up urban energy before heading into nature’s embrace. An invigorating hike around the breathtaking Kolsai Lakes reveals sunken forests and dramatic canyons, while a scenic boat trip across Issyk-Kul Lake showcases alpine vistas that seem almost untouched by time.
With city sightseeing as the core activity, this moderately active tour is ideal for travelers looking for a blend of urban exploration and outdoor adventure. Local guides enrich the experience with their insight, and the thoughtfully planned route ensures a balance of comfort, discovery, and activity.
Unique to this tour is its ability to seamlessly blend the ancient and the modern, the cosmopolitan and the wild—making it perfect for those who crave both cultural highlights and natural wonders in one comprehensive trip package.

Vast deserts, open steppe, fertile valleys and striking mountain ranges shape the landscapes of the Five Stans, the five former Soviet republics of Central Asia. Their towns and cities reveal the movement of armies, traders, and scholars over millennia: Greek and Persian campaigns, Mongol expansion, Silk Road exchange, ambitious astronomers, and Soviet-era experiments. Encounter traditional villages, intricately tiled madrassas, alpine lakes, lively markets and wide boulevards − a vivid portrait of a region where histories overlap and contemporary Central Asian culture continues to evolve in fascinating ways.
About this trip: We have two versions of this trip. One starts in Ashgabat, Turkmenistan, and ends in Almaty, Kazakhstan, and the other runs in reverse. Apart from the direction of travel, the two itineraries are similar – the main difference is the route taken through Kyrgyzstan and the accommodation there. This itinerary runs from Almaty, Kazakhstan, to Ashgabat, Turkmenistan, includes Chon-Kemin and Bishkek and stays in guesthouses and hotels rather than yurts. The other itinerary runs from Turkmenistan to Kazakhstan, includes Son Kul Lake and there are two nights staying in yurts in Kyrgyzstan.
