This is a mixed tour with cultural immersion - only a short ride is included.

Kyrgyzstan is a land of breathtaking mountains, where crystal-clear rivers flow, vibrant lakes sparkle, and towering ranges stretch across the horizon. With its stunning mountain passes, fresh air, and untouched natural beauty, it's no wonder Kyrgyzstan is known as the "Country of Celestial Mountains." The country warmly welcomes visitors to experience its unique way of life, where many still embrace a nomadic or semi-nomadic lifestyle centered around animal herding and traditional felt-making. Though Kyrgyzstan may not have an extensive settled history, it more than compensates with its rich nomadic heritage. It's a mountain paradise ideal for outdoor adventures and wild camping. During your visit, you'll explore Karakol—Kyrgyzstan's fourth-largest city, formerly known as Przhevalsk—discover the Jety-Oguz valley, famous for its "Seven Bulls," and visit the Rukh Ordo Ethno Park and the Petroglyphs Museum.
