ملخص

Kyrgyzstan may be a small country, but it has been blessed with some of the most breathtaking landscapes in the world. Massive mountain ranges intertwine with vast valleys dotted with nomadic settlements, herds of yaks, donkeys, and horses, or picturesque urban centers. During the summer months, the mountain breeze blows down from the snow-capped peaks and embraces life with a freshness that you will miss when back home.

 

In this itinerary, we have combined gorges, mountains, and lakes to offer you an authentic view of the Kyrgyz countryside and its untouched nature. On the way, you will also get a taste of the local hospitality, gaining insights into traditional practices and old rituals that survive to our day, and delving a bit more into the essence of this lesser-known civilization.

 

Trip highlights:

·       Live like a local in a traditional yurt, surrounded by silence, the Kyrgyz nomads, and their herds of yaks, donkeys, goats and horses.
