    It was pleasure trip and to be so close to nature. The short trek was also very good with scenic beauty around. One must visit when traveling to bishkek.

    Great place for a picnic, or just spend some time soaking in the mountain views. We hiked to the waterfall and spent the afternoon enjoying the fresh mountain air.

    Our Kalpak trip exceeded our expectations. We took the 15-day cultural tour of the 4 Stans (Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan). It was a busy trip but amazing. We loved the friendly people, the beauty of the mosques etc. and the spectacular scenery. The tour is highly recommended - great guides, hotels and food in these four countries. The small group experience was wonderful. Luca was EXTREMELY helpful and responded to our enquiries immediately. Having just returned, we are exhausted but will have many treasured memories. My husband and I have travelled extensively, and this tour was organized and flawlessly executed. Thank you!

    We had 2 perfect tours with my son, hiking at Ala-Archa mountains and full one-day trip to Issuk Kyl and its surroundings. The hiking took place on a sunny day, and the experience was really wonderful with nice views and a good guide (Meerim)! The other day we made a trip to Issuk Kyl, including a visit to Burana tower, outdoor museum alongside the lake, lunch, a visit to a waterfall and finally relaxing session at the hot tube spa.

    The whole experience started with good reservation process with good suggestions and everything after that was really well arranged. In addition we got good suggestions of restaurants and local food etc. Also both drivers (private tours) were really good and not to forget the good hospitality of all persons in total.

    Really can recommend these guys if you are looking for tours in Bishkek!

    Had an amazing few days exploring Kyrgyzstan with Narynbek. I feel we barely scratched the surface of this beautiful country with our limited number of days. Looking forward to coming back sooner rather than later and explore more the majestic landscapes on a proper expedition. Narynbek was always helpful and great fun on the trip. He took a bunch of great photos for the group. Amazing way to remember our first trip to the Stans!

    As we booked lately, Serguei managed to find 3 bikes for us and provided some of the gear. Bikes were on good condition and adapted (250cc) to the tour. We followed Serguei's advice for the 5 days trip leaving Bishkek for Tash Rabat. I recommend, top experience !

    Alexey is really friendly, knowledgeable and we had great laughs on a trip from Bishkek to Bokonbayevo via Burana Tower.

    Alexey kindly brought me along to an off road meet up where I got to ride in a UAZ truck. He also took lots of drone footage as well as gopro footage on a trip to SSK Vystrel shooting range.

    He also taught me some hilarious Russian phrases. Best experience in Central Asia that I've had. Would highly recommend!

    We rented a car at a fair price, and even when things got complicated,Almez took care of a replacement car in a short time and our trip could continue as planned. We received excellent, kind and fair service. Excellent English speaker, Almaz was always available to help with any issue.

    I went on a four day tour around Kyrgyzstan. Max was immensely helpful and communicative in organising everything, and Rafael was a joy to spend time with as we drove through Kyrgyzstan.

    A very professional outfit and I would certainly book again with them!

    August 2022 we went to Kyrgyzstan - more specifically Osh and the Allay heights for a riding expedition in the mountains.

    We chose this above other travel agencies because we wanted to go not in a large group and how lucky we were! Just my boyfriend and I, an English Speaking guide and the horse caretakers and guides.
    Our guide Abdulkadyr was truly friendly and hospitable and he arranged for us to go for an unplanned trip to Jalal-Abad on our first day to visit his home town.

    The horse trek itself was AMAZING. However, be aware that crossing the Alay Mountains is tough terrain and nature, so not classified as an easy ride.
    The horses for this trip were truly amazing and kept very sure on their footing even through rough terrain. The views were stunning.

    The people in the yurt camps and guesthouses along the way were very friendly and the children very curios and engaging.

    As it so happened we were very close to the Pamir Mountains at the time of the yearly Too Mountain festival. We spoke to Abdulkadyr and were were fortunate to be able to alter our plans slightly so we could attend the festival - which mostly drowned in rain - but hey you can't control the weather.

    Give yourself sufficient time to explore these mountains, so don't deny yourself from a lifetime adventure.

    All in all a trip to remember - just be aware of the pull of those mountains! Once there, you may not want to leave!

    I chose the Kyrgyz Concept because they are responsible and flexible. The Kyrgyz Concept´s flexibility I experienced even before the trip itself since the company was willing and able to make changes in the itinerary based on our wishes. Also, it was great that the company could provide its services to people who are traveling solo. Thanks to Kyrgyzu Concept, I experienced the beautiful nature as well as the architecture of the cities.

    Overall the experience was amazing with the great service, guides, and trips organized by your company.

    I could not rate Nomad's Land highly enough. I have been planning this trip for over 2 years (pre-pandemic) and finally made it in July 2022. Myself (a photographer) and my friend (a filmmaker) wanted to shoot a self-funded documentary project on Kyrgyzstan, the nomadic communities that live there and their lifestyles and traditions. As such we had a very specific list of requests that we wanted to acheive.

    Our trip planner, Nikita, was amazing and was able to organise everything that we wanted and more. He was very patient and communication was very pleasant and reliable (I had a lot of questions).

    He built us an incredible, bespoke, 2-week itinerary that took us all around the country, visiting most of the popular destinations, but also allowing us a good amount of time to stay with nomadic families and immerse ourself in the culture in an authentic way. We did everything from hiking, to horse-riding, to watching an intimate Eagle Hunting demonstration, to swimming in glacial lakes and even watching a traditional game of Kok Boru on the shore of Song Kul lake.

    We had our own driver (with a necessary 4x4) for the duration as well as a guide, Mirbek, who was astonishing. He was very friendly and great company for the two weeks. He was a fountain of knowledge about the country's history (both ancient and modern) and proved invaluable as a translator when staying with the nomads, especially as we were conducting interviews and had lots of questions! But more importantly, he made it very easy to spend time with everyone we met, and the atmosphere was always super relaxed and friendly.

    We had an unforgettable two weeks in Kyrgyzstan and can't wait to visit again in the future. Thanks so much to Nikita, Mirbek and Alex. I couldn't recommend them highly enough :)

    Well organized trip in Kyrgyzstan in July 2019. One week trekking through Tien Shan Mountains, on week a Jeep Tour to nice places in Kyrgyzstan. I appreciated that the service Silk Road Explore offered was exactly what we agreed before and was published in the Internet, it was absolutely reliable. During the trek the guide Evgeniy was considerate of the members of his group with their different physique; the walks were adapted and Evgeniy helped if it was necessary. He chosed nice trails through the mountains and good rest places to build the tent. In the evening, he cooked excellent dinner with the simple possibilities one has on an Trek. Evgeniy could tell much about the landscape and has a good knowledge of plants and animals. He has also much knowledge about weather conditions and how to move and behave in mountain area. When we were on Tour by car, Evgeniy drove carefully and responsible.

    The video was sent by our best friend Mr Damir Alymbek Uulu.. Our tour guide who has good heart and doing his best for us to experience the best memories throughout the journey.

    We covered the north and east region of kyrgyzstan, by going around the Issyk Kul lake.

    We started our journey in Bishkek, the capital city of Kyrgyzstan. Then, we went for trekking to the great canyon, which involved rock climbing and very steep trails, almost 90 degrees slopes !!! . I was in shocked initially, but with the support of my ladies and tour guide, i managed to complete 3 quarters of the trails in kochkor. Then, we had our first horse riding to the mountain for almost 6 hours!!! and experienced the views of the mountains with adventurous landscape....

    The journey continue to Issyk kul lake. The lake was huge and u can't even see the edge of the lake . The lake is called as hot lake as it never freezes during the winter. The water was very cold and clear with wave due to the wind..

    Then, the journey continues to Shazka canyon, my second attempt of hiking to see the Fairytale Canyon. The trails was steep and narrow. I did it this time..😅😅😅😅 Alhumdulillah...

    We visited Jeti Oguz to see the gorge, river and mountain of the broken heart mountain and the 7 bulls due to erosion from the strong wind... And we also took pictures with the monument of the first astronaut fly to the moon, Yuri Gagarin

    Karakol city tour was interesting, the food were delicious and fresh.

    The best place that i enjoyed the most was in Jyrgalan valley... The foods were the best and we had the chance to experience the lifestyle of the locals. We had our second horse riding with a magnificent view of the mountains and glacier.

    Lastly, we went to the national park of Chong Kemin, the journey took us about 10 hours from Jyrgalan valley. The view of the mountains was superb and amazing... This time i managed to hike in the morning to the waterfall, then in the evening, we did hiking to the mountains for sunset... Yeayyyy this time i did both....😊😊😊😊

    On the last day in Chong Kemin, we had fire camping and singing till we had no idea what else to sing 😅😅😅😅

    Overall, i enjoyed the trip and i wanted to repeat again and cover other area that i missed... Aunty ana is the best planner ... And not to forget to my ladies, Ja Sharifah Khalijah, Kak Zu Zurina Yusoff and Kak No Nobasmah Hussin are the best company...❤️❤️❤️❤️
