Amazing Trip around Issyk-Kul Lake 😍 - I've been a frequent traveller to Europe and I can safely say that my mind has been blown away by what Krygyzstan could offer just by taking me around the lake. You name it - Mountains, clean rivers, lake (duh), forests, good food and definitely great people. The best person definitely being Mr Mars. Krygyzstan has it ALL. I have seen the winter wonders and now I'm excited to visit again back in Summer

Amazing Kyrgyzstan Adventure! - I would definitely recommend going on this trip with Mars! We saw so many diverse landscapes with him – from the beautiful lake to magical mountains and colorful, rocky canyons. He shared so much about Kyrgyzstan tradition and culture and we really learned so much from him. Seeing the Eagle breeder was one of the highlights, but honestly, each activity with him was so memorable and the days passed way too quickly. We also love staying in the yurt overnight. You will not regret taking a trip with him - he also has great energy and is super easy to get along with!

Awesome tour and tour guide! - We had a great time on our 3 day tour to Issy-Kul Lake with Mars. He was so knowledgeable and hospitable, and we learned so much from him. We got to try all different types of diverse regional cuisine (all of the restaurants he brought us to were delicious!) and he also bought us some local ice cream to top it off! Mars was so thoughtful and always proactively helped us take photos of ourselves at different beautiful sites. The landscapes he showed us were incredibly beautiful and many of our friends now want to come to Kyrgyzstan after seeing our photos. Highly recommend!

Excellent Tour of Issyk Kul - This was a great trip to see the highlights of Issyk Kul lake. This tour covers a lot of ground in three days, but you will have plenty of time to see the sights listed in the tour description. Ulan was an excellent guide, ensuring things went smoothly, very understanding and responding to requests, very personable and accommodating.

Amazing tour around Lake Issyk-Kul - I spent three wonderful days around Lake Issyk-Kul. Mars is an excellent guide who explains things well, passes on Kyrgyz culture and is very friendly. I was delighted to see such beautiful scenery and am already looking forward to returning to Kyrgyzstan using his services.
