I had planned a trip to Bishkek and booked three day trips with Show Me Bishkek. Sadly I had to cancel my trip (due to a recent surgery) but their customer service (Diana) has been amazing. I am looking forward to rebooking with them as soon as I am able, as if their service on the ground is anywhere near as good as their customer service, it’s going to be one great trip!

The variety and number of places visited per day makes this tour unforgettable and unique. Within eight days, you will cross semi-deserts, breathe in the fresh air of the highlands and feel the coolness of centuries-old glaciers. The tour is perfect for lovers of mountain hiking and wildlife, lovers of fair landscapes and photographers. The feeling that you have visited a dozen countries makes this tour even more attractive.

I truly recommend SUV tour. Everything was well organized. The guide Chingiz was professional, friendly and flexible to our needs. Ww were not properly equipped for the long trekking and the guide proposed us an alternative itinerary which was amazing as well. We will come back to Almaty region to visit other beautiful places and we will use SUV tour again

• Visit the Burana Tower (about 80km from Bishkek), which marks the original site of the Karakhanid town, Balasagun. Located along the important branch of the Silk Road, Burana Tower is a UNESCO World heritage site. Surrounding the tower you can also find ruins of Balasagun. • The tower was originally 45m high, however over centuries, a number of earthquakes damaged the structure of the tower, and it now remains 25m high. • Continue driving to Issyk-Kul Lake, and visit a city of the north shore – Cholpon-Ata, where the World Nomad Games (also known as “Olympics for Nomads”)  are held. There you will find an open-air museum of petroglyphs, Issyk-Kul State Historical and Cultural Museum, as well as sandy beaches and springs. • The above package is only a reference, each group can specify its requirement.

Inclusions: Driver/guide, Pickup and drop-off from designated meeting points

Exclusions: Food and drinks, Lunch

Easy and highly supportive booking by mail. Nice driver/guide with very good knowledge of Bishkek. Extremely reliabe, always on time, or earlier. I used the company also for airport transfers . It was a good decision, as it was relatively cheap, and one could avoid all the bad airport hassle with taxi drivers.

Feel Nomad is a great, professional, well-run company with reliable cars and english speaking guides who love to hike and explore as much as you do. I did the Canyons trip, along with extra days at Karakol and Ala Archa and it was all great. They were flexible with the itinerary based on my interests and mood, had great local knowledge, were able to setup yurt stays and guesthouse stays which typically would be harder for non Russian speakers to arrange, easy to talk to during the long drives, and best of all they were great at all the intense hiking Overall highly recommended specially if you want a nature/hiking/adventure focused tour when in Kyrgyzstan

First of all Kyrgyzstan is famous for Issyk-Kul lake. It is beautiful all year round. It is much better to see it than to see pictures an read articles about the Lake. This is a "must visit" place in our country. This is the most suitable tour for those who have little time, but want to see a "mountain pearl"

Inclusions: On the way to the Lake we will stop to have lunch. National puff cakes with soar cream and tea boiled in russian samovar with unique taste.

It was a very interesting tour. First, we drove to the Burana tower, visited the museum took good pictures. Our guide Aibek told us the history of the ancient tower. After that, we stopped at a local cafe for local treat kattama bread. Then we drove and walked till the Canyon. There where 4-5 stone barriers which we had to pass. Canyons were amazing. Even its winter day there was almost no snow. Reddish beautiful rocks surrounded the area. The 2,5 km walk was worth of seeing this beauty. Thank you Aibek for a great tour.

​The Ala- Archa National Park is in Tian Shan mountain and perfect place for hiking and located just 30 km from Bishkek. It is good for hiking or camping surrounded by an impressive view on high rocky peaks that can be climbed and beautiful rivers to enjoy. On that tour, you can choose because after arrival to Ala-Archa National Park there is a choice between hiking to Ala-Archa waterfall or just walking for one hour till river divided. In addition, Ala-Archa National Park is in the first place thing to do by Trip Advisor. If you come to Kyrgyzstan, visit Ala-Archa will be good decision for you.

Aidana was super helpful and professional! She helped arrange my 6-day solo tour in Kyrgyzstan based on my own personal preferences, travel style and budget. She was very informative and knowledgeable about her home country Kyrgyzstan.

a private trip for 6 of us , in 2 large confortable four wheels drive cars, we experienced Kyrgyzstan, coached by Mars and Tahal , our host and our driver. from Bishkek where we had our first taste of loacal cusine , to our trip around the Karakul lac, we were blessed to be there during the Nomade games. Such a beauty , yurts in the plateau in high altitude, colorfull costumes , and horse acrobatics, were some of the events we had witnessed. Aside of the games, we wnet up mountains, stay in Yurts, have wonderful time in seclude lodges , and enjoyed horse ridding . Not to forget expereinced picknic prepared by our hosts , along a mountain stream , alone , just us , such a private trip. We went up high in the mountain, top of a sky resort, and we did that with the crew operating the lifts , kind enough to start the whole thing for just 6 of us. Unforgettable. I wish to many to try , hoping that these pristine places will remain so for a long time. Thanks Mars and Tahal, we will not forget you (how , we took more than photos) and hope that we may again come to this still virgin country
