We specialize in cultural tours, treks and horseback riding trips that immerse you in local life and culture. This includes spending the night in remote and family-run yurt camps and visiting shepherd communities in summer high pastures (jailoos). You’ll find that interacting with Kyrgyz nomadic culture is a natural part of the tour as you may be invited for tea by a shepherd you pass on your hike or perhaps you help your host make traditional bread (naan) at the yurt camp.

We are a local tour company with deep roots in these remote mountain communities as many of our guides and drivers come from these places. We aim to connect our travelers with local people and culture in an authentic way, avoiding commercialized activities or stops whenever possible. If you want a deeper cultural encounter, let us know and we can design a trek or cultural tour with specific activities like cooking classes, hands-on experiences like milking animals or learning traditional handicrafts.
