Amazing kyrgyza experience - If you take a ride in Kyrgyzstan you can not miss an experience on horseback. We did 3 days in the company of Aziz who accompanied us through these fabulous mountains, as well as making us live some unforgettable adventures on horseback in the company of other local guides. A fairly spartan trip, but absolutely feasible for every healthy person.

Scenic tour with horse riding - I booked this tour with my friend. Tour was great authentic experience. Our guide Nuraly picked us up on time. We stopped at Burana on the way then headed to Son Kol lake via valley and stunning mountain pass. Yurt camp was cosy with tasty local food. Next day morning we did horse riding to the hills for about 2-3 hours. Overall it was true nomadic experience. We recommend this tour!
