An accompanying guide will meet you at Manas International Airport, from where you will go to the capital - Bishkek city (30 minutes’ drive from the airport). Your first day in Kyrgyzstan will be completely devoted to a tour of Bishkek. You will visit Victory Square, Oak Park, Ala-Too Central Square, Old Square, National Philharmonic Hall and many other attractions. The afternoon is devoted to a trip to Ala Archa, located at the foot of the Tien Shan mountain range. It is a nature reserve and one of the most beautiful gorges of Bishkek. In Soviet times, only privileged people had the right to walk in this park. At the end of the tour, you will return to Bishkek. Dinner is served at 7 pm. Overnight at the hotel.

Today you will be transferred to the Chon Kemin Gorge. On the way to the gorge you will visit the tower. On the way to the gorge, you can visit the Burana Tower, which was a lighthouse and a place of rest for travelers after a long and hard road. Burana Tower is a minaret built in the 11th century AD. Nearby there is an open-air museum of balbals (stone warriors). At the end of the tour, we will go to the Chon Kemin Gorge. Here you can get to know the locals. Then we will have a wonderful three-hour horse ride. Your route will run along the slopes of nearby mountains, through the mountain forest. At the top you will have a wonderful view of the entire gorge. The night and dinner will be held in the family.

Today you will be transported to the heavenly lake Issyk-Kul, the second largest alpine lake in the world (1,608 m above sea level). Its length is 180 km and its width is 60 km. The lake is called the "pearl of Central Asia". For more than 1,500 years, the locals considered the lake sacred. The lake has healing properties due to its salt water. You can walk up to the lake and see the mountains around it. In Soviet times, heads of government owned their own holiday homes. Overnight at the hotel.

Today you transfer to Bishkek city. On the way you will also visit ancient stone inscriptions (dating back to 800 B.C.). These petroglyphs were made more than 2000 years ago by shamans. All these stones are still in their original places as they were at that the time. You can see a panorama view of the Issyk Kul Lake from this place – back then the people thought that it was the middle of the world. In the afternoon you will visit the Asian bazaar where you will be able to take a lot of dynamic photos of bustling local life. This bazaar is a noisy and colorful tapestry of fabrics, produce, and people selling and buying goods. Night is in a hotel.
