Maks made this 3 day tour a very enjoyable adventure. Not only I got to see the best areas around the lake but I had great traditional food, peaceful stay in the Yurt camp, beautiful hikes and interesting conversation (and few naps) during the drive from one place to another. I did this tour as a female traveling solo and I felt very comfortable all the time. I recommend this tour 100%

The most pleasant and memorable part of the trip was the guide, Mak. A perfect host with great English, insightful knowledge of Kyrgyzstan, it’s people and culture, was a great compliment to the sights of the journey encircling the lake. I am not a guided tour guy….but will never regret or forget this experience.

Experience Kyrgyzstan's nature like a local. The trip is all about circling around Issyk Kul lake, 450 KM. We've got more than what we expected, grand canyon like scenary, snowy mountain like in Alpen, vast greenland like Switzerland, and having good time enjoying hot spring water.
Pristine water and fresh air. Cook in the riverside where we took water from. The owner tailored made the trip for us. He provided with good food, nice accomodation, and great experience with no additional cost.
Really worth experience to try, can't wait for the next one. Kyrgyzstan. Discover undiscovered.

I only know few things about Kyrgyzstan but Mars really helped us understand many things about his beautiful country. He took us to some of the most breathtaking places in Kyrgyzstan, experience the local life and enjoy every second of it. His hospitality is top notch! Thank you Mars for not just letting us experience the beauty of your country but also for building a good friendship. If you like surprises then this tour is perfect for you! Indeed, the best travel so far. Рахмат!!

I would recommend this agency and this particular tour to people who: enjoy wilderness/nature, have about a week in Kyrgyz, travel alone. This 3-day tour around the Issyk Kul Lake is ideal to get a mix of nature, culture, and small towns that have sprouted around the lake.
I got in contact with the tour agency directly through its website, and within a few hours, Mars emailed me back. Fortunately, my trip was flexible, and I took him up on his suggestion to start a day earlier so that I would be with another group. This turned out to be a great idea because the more the merrier during the long drives. The only downside to booking directly through them, rather than booking through Viator, is that I had to pay in cash, which I wasn't prepared to do since I thought I'd be able to pay by card. I always think it's best to work directly with small, local businesses, and if you go this route, have cash in hand, otherwise, you'll have to make a few withdrawals at an ATM, which was a hassle.
We got to see some breathtaking canyons, waterfalls, and mountains. The lake itself is massive you almost forget you're in a landlocked country. The accommodations at the yurt camp and guesthouse were very comfortable and clean. We got to try all the most popular national dishes, and fortuitous timing allowed us to experience nomadic Kyrgyz hospitality along the way during one of their festivals. Mars took care of us well; the trip was organized, but since our group was flexible, Mars always gave us options on what we could see/do along the way. He had a great playlist, transportation was comfortable, provided interesting pieces of history along the way, and was communicative before and during the trip.
Do expect long drives. On the third day, we had the most ground to cover to return to Bishkek (about 5), and Mars broke down the drive with a few spots to see. Plenty of places to stop for toilet breaks. Easy pick up from the airport and drop off at my hotel at the end. Might be difficult to accommodate if you are a strict vegetarian/vegan.

Hi there
I would like to book the 3 day tour for 20/8 but wondering if there is any chance of having a few hours of horse riding in the itinerary ?
Looking forward to hear from you
