5.00Very good agency, Askat is an excellent guide, very experienced. I made three outings with him as well as another guide named Hamza: Lake Kul Ukok, Lake Song Kul, Bokonbaevo (eagle breeder + Skazka Canyon). All these outings come at a cost but it is worth it if you want to have a nice experience in Kyrgyzstan. I have very good memories of it. Thanks again.

5.00I had a great time with out guide, Askat. The trip started in Kochkor and we took the horses to the lake, where we stayed in a yurt camp. The views were beautiful and serene! In the morning, we went to lake Kol Tor, which was also breathtaking. I had a great time and would definitely recommend!

5.00This tour was an incredible experience for me. The horse riding was quite enjoyable, and it wasn't as difficult as I thought it would be. It was an excellent way to explore the vast and stunning landscapes of Kyrgyzstan. Overnight stay in a yurt was a truly unique and invaluable experience. It was functional and comfortable. The traditional Kyrgyz meals we had during the tour were absolutely delicious. I was impressed by the variety and quality of the local cuisine. Frozen Lake Kol-Ukok view was simply breathtaking, and it felt like I was standing in the middle of a vast and beautiful world. Overall, I highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to explore the beautiful landscapes and rich culture of Kyrgyzstan. The tour guides were friendly and knowledgeable, and the entire experience was unforgettable.
