My friend and I did a 5 day trip in Kyrgyzstan. Words fall short to describe the beauty of this country and what made it all the more worthwhile was our excellent guide and friend now - Narynbek (Narchello) from Kygyz guides. We were welcomed at the airport early morning and spent the first half of the day in Bishkek after which we drove to ala aracha for a small hike and spent the night in Chon Khemin at an excellent homestay recommended by Narchello. The next day was spent spent horse riding in Chon khemin, hiking to Konarchak canyon and then an adventurous drive to song kul lake (yurt camp stay). On the third day we drove through the 33 parrots, enjoyed a beautiful waterfall and reached Bokanbayevo for the night. The next day we covered fairy tale canyon and the most beautiful karakol gorge. Being from Dubai we were excited to see Snow :) We spent that night at Karakol at a really nice Japanese styled homestay. Our fifth and last day was spent in the hot water springs at cholpon ata and then We drove back to Bishkek, did the PCR test and also had a city tour.
Kyrgyzstan is a hidden gem ! The varied landscapes (we literally had snow capped peaks to green pastures, lakes, waterfalls to varied weather conditions from sun, to rain to hail storm and then snow fall) all in one trip . It was beyond unbelievable. We are thrilled we made this trip and would recommend Kyrgyz guides to show you the best this country has to offer. They are experienced and absolutely professional. Next time we hope to visit the South region of Kyrgyzstan.

My friend and I visited Kyrgyzstan in May for a 5day trip. It was a sudden plan but Narynbek helped and coordinated for us through every step. He planned for us an itinerary in which we could see the true beauty of Kyrgyzstan with the various formations, landscapes and also enjoyed the changing climates( warm sunny to rainy to hail to snow :) ) it was such a pleasant yet adventurous trip. Narchello was a good guide and friend and guided us well throughout the trip. He even helped us through last minute cancellations and was casual with arranging alternatives. The trip to Son-kul was with lot of roadblocks and only a confident guide/driver could get us through the rough night without any stress. He did his best for us to experience the local feel of everything including the choice of food to horseback riding. He also introduced us to some good Kyrgyz music and all our long drives were much fun! We are very happy that we visited Kyrgyzstan through Kyrgyz guide and recommend Narchello any day! Thank you for the wonderful experience:)

Where to start? Maybe with the fact that my friend and I should have gone longer to explore more from wonderful Kyrgyzstan. So many beautiful different regions. Everything was great about this 4-day trip.
Islam is the best guide you can have. He is knowledgeable, enthusiastic, creative and above all such a great and friendly guy who did everything to make sure my friend and I would experience the best of Kyrgyzstan in a relatively short period of time. Because in hindsight we should have stayed longer. Nonetheless we did so much in four days that we’ll never forget.
In advance I had contacted Islam via the live chat on his website and we emailed afterwards to carve out a travel plan for the 4 days which turned out to be the perfect trip in practice.
We arrived on 30 September in the morning after a night flight from Istanbul. Islam was already waiting for us with a comfortable Toyota 4WD. The first day we headed for beautiful Son Kul Lake. Just in time actually, because it was already started to get cold and yurts were slowly disappearing during that period, since the people living there were moving to the lower villages because of the upcoming winter. We did some nice hiking around the lake, had great contacts with the people living there and also a few fellow travelers. Very special and cosy to spend the night that way at such a magical place.
The second day again we had such a beautiful route through the amazing mountains, heading for the large Issyk Kul Lake and Bokonbaevo, a village where we had a tasty lunch at the sympathetic family that hunts with the help of their eagle. Very special experience.
Day 3 we were passing by the Burana tower with its mausoleum and before we had been in the really beautiful Chon Kemin valley where we bumped into a game of Kok Boru. We had a great horse trekking into the gorgeous mountains of Chon Kemin.
That night we explored the nightlife of Bishkek with Islam and a friend of his. We enjoyed every bit of it. The last day we mainly have been exploring Bishkek itself which is a nice, vibrant and modern city with a lot of parks, coffee houses, friendly people and quite a bit to see and do.
I’m summary, so many impressions in such a short period of time. It wouldn’t have been possible without Islam who has done his utmost to ensure we had a great trip that would meet our expectations. Needless to say that a trip with Kyrgyz Guide is highly recommended for every type of stay, short or long and also every type of activity. Will definitely come back.

I had a 3-day tour around Issyk-kul lake and enjoy my time with Kyrgyz Guides. Narynbek created a tailor-made itinerary for me so that I could see a lot of attractions in a short time. Our car was very comfortable and the accommodation we used was good, too. I would definitely recommend this company to others.

Narynbek (the man behind Kyrgyz Guide) was a true professional. I decided to take a last minute to Kyrgyzstan in January during the low season and arranged a 3 day private tour. Narynbek is very experienced and runs a very efficient and smooth operation. Everything went as planned and I was able to see magnificent winter landscapes whilst we drove around Issyk Kul lake. The highlight of the trip for me was watching the Eagle Hunter show, which was fascinating.
I'd highly recommend anyone looking to do a tour or trekking to contact Kyrgyz Guide, as I had an marvelous experience. I look forward to visiting Kyrgyzstan again to see the beauty during summertime and to travel on the Pamir Highway between Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan.

Narenbek of Kyrgyz Guides turned out to be an excellent person and also a very good guide.
Punctual on all the occasions, courteous and very accommodative.
We were a family of 5 individuals in the age bracket of 2.5 to 62 and it is a thumbs up from each one of us.
We visited Al Archa, Kagheti and Komnnekc Otabixa in the 4 days of our Bishkek stay.
Have no reservations in recommending Narenbek.

I did an amazing horseback riding expedition with Kyrgyz Guide (Narynbek) and @mountainguidekg (Ryskeldi). It was a unique experience. 2-day expedition in Song-Kol. The guides were great and the horses were amazing. The view… just wow. We slept at the top of the mountain in a yurt. Definitely adventurous tourism off the beaten path. Don’t be scared of the winter. It was just amazing. I was travelling solo. As a woman, I always felt comfortable. The guide were very nice and made sure I was ok. Narynbek who organized my trip was very reliable, responded very quickly and was always on time. I highly recommend it.

Without a doubt one of the most exciting and adventurous holidays that my husband and I had not least due to our fantastic guide Naryn.
Naryn has excellent communication and interpersonal skills. He is reliable with a wealth of local knowledge.
We were lucky enough to have spent five days with Naryn during which he showed us some of the most beautiful places in Kyrgyzstan (e.g. Song-Kul; Issyk-Kul, Arabel Plateau).
We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday and highly recommend Naryn to anyone looking to explore Kyrgyzstan!
