Depart from Kochkor in the morning and drive through the scenic Naryn regions to reach Kyzart village (approx. 2 hours). Here you meet your local horse guide and begin the horseback trek. Ride across wide green pastures towards Kilemche jailoo, a lush summer pasture surrounded by rolling hills. Overnight in a traditional yurt, enjoying a hearty nomadic dinner.

After breakfast, mount your horse and ascend the impressive Zhalgyz Karagai Pass (3,400 m). From the top, take in breathtaking views of the high mountains and the vast Song-Kol Lake in the distance. Descend into the valley and ride along the lake shore where herders graze their animals. Overnight in a lakeside yurt, where you experience authentic nomadic life and stargazing under the clear alpine sky.

Spend the morning exploring the peaceful lake area on horseback or on foot, meeting local shepherd families and learning about their lifestyle. After lunch, ride back towards Kyzart village via Kara-Kiya Pass (3,360 m). From Kyzart, transfer by car back to Kochkor, arriving in the evening.

We had the most amazing time in the crisp air of Kyrgyzstan. Aibek was a wonderful guide who adapted the trip to suit us. The company are so lovely and personable. It was our wedding anniversary trip and they went above and beyond to ensure we had a lonely time. I couldn’t recommend them highly enough!!

My friends and i had a long journey for 6 days with kyrgyz trip and it is very worth it! All of the places we’ve been both lakes and mountains are so amazing and beautiful. Even we’ve been here for many days, we never get bored of the views of nature. I would like to recommend everyone to visit this country once in your life and specially thank you for our tour guide Billy who always took care of us and created an unforgettable tour.
Had a great time with Tari El. The scenery is very beautiful. Journey from one attraction to another is far away but having Tari El as our driver, like fast and furious. Will come back again

Our trip to Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan with this tour company was nothing short of extraordinary. The itinerary provided a comprehensive exploration of both countries, including not only the planned attractions but also delightful surprises with side trips to additional attractions. The natural beauty of the region, from Skazka Canyon to Issyk Kul Lake, Kolsai and Kaindy Lakes, Charyn Canyon, and Shymbulak Mountain Resort, left a lasting impression.

The accommodations, particularly in Tamga Village and Saty Village, provided a comfortable retreat from the cold climate, with fantastic views adding to the overall experience. The warmth and hospitality of the local people, coupled with delicious homecooked meals, enriched our journey.

However, what truly made our trip memorable was the enthusiastic and accommodating guide, Aibek. His willingness to cater to our preferences, stop for impromptu photo opportunities, and facilitate immersive experiences like picnics amidst stunning landscapes truly enhanced the trip. The road trip from Bishkek to Almaty, with its nomadic-style stays and spontaneous moments, added an adventurous flair to the journey.

Overall, our experience with this tour company was exceptional, leaving us with cherished memories and a desire to return, perhaps during the autumn season. My review highlights the company's ability to curate unforgettable experiences and provide excellent service, thanks in large part to the dedication of guides like Aibek.

The trip was delightful, filled with delicious food, providing a great opportunity to immerse ourselves in the local culture - a key aspect we always look forward to while traveling. We eagerly anticipate visiting Kyrgyzstan again in the future.
