Day 1: Bishkek - Ala Archa - Bishkek
On arriving to Kyrgyzstan, foreigners are met by our company on cars for rent in Manas International Airport. Then they are taken to Bishkek, the capital of the country. The way is going to be interesting as guides will tell lots of fantastic stories. On arriving at the city, guests start a city tour, along Pobeda Square (Victory Square), Duboviy Park (Oak Park), Central Ala-Too Square, Old Square, National Philharmonic. The day is not over, so we make a way to Ala Archa gorge. It is in 45 km from Bishkek and is the most visited site by the people of the country as well as the foreigners. This is the natural park on the Tien Shan mountain range. Being here we are able to immerse in nature and have a chance to communicate with other locals. Night will be in the hotel.
Day 2: Bishkek - Burana - Issyk Kul northern shore
For the first we would like to show the site of interest as Burana Tower. This tower is created in the 11th century. It is also known for the balbals standing around the tower. They were built with an aim of protecting the territory and the people here. Then we travel to Issyk Kul Lake located at 16087m above sea level. As all of the sites are usually located at heights, cars for rent are recommended for being taken. This lake is popular for being called as "the pearl of Central Asia". Night will be in the hotel.
Day 3: Issyk Kul Lake - Karakol
At 8 am we are going to have breakfast and then start a tour to Karakol city. The surrounding territory is famous for ancient stone inscriptions. They are known to be created 800 BC. Along with it there are petroglyphs here, being written by the shamans about 2000 years ago. And finally as we get to Karakol, visitors travel to the Dungan mosque, built in the style of China. And the second one is the wooden building. Night will be made in the hotel.
Day 4: Karakol - Jeti Oguz - Issyk Kul southern shore - Kochkor
One of the most popular locations in Kyrgyzstan is Jeti Oguz gorge. This is the gorge with an interesting legend. It tells us about the time when seven bulls were killed, with their blood making the rock red. Then we would like to show the beauty of the Broken Heart Mountain. It is peculiar for the opportunity to get to the top of it and then see the precious view of the panorama. Later guests make a tour to the Bokonbaeva village. It is famous for the people knowing the art of eagle-hunting. Night will be made in the stay of Kochkor village.
Day 5: Kochkor - Son Kul
As Son Kul is one of the highest lakes of Kyrgyzstan, it is going to be visited by us today. The lake can be found at the height of 3013m above sea level, in the heart of mountains. Moreover, the mountain location shows us complicating weather conditions. As guests travel here in summer, it is still cool here, so impossible for swimming. But all are able to take boats and have a journey along the water. Night and dinner will be made in yurts, in the style of the nomads.
Day 6: Son Kul - 33 parrots Pass - Kochkor - Bishkek
During the route back to Bishkek, guests make a stop at the height of 3133m above sea level. This is a photo stop, the famous 33 parrots pass. Then there is a stop at Kochkor village. Here we communicate with the people, who create carpets. These carpets are unique and handmade. At the same time, they are able to decorate clothes. Locals will give a chance to try to take an active part of carpet creation or decoration. So, on coming to the capital, night is spent in the hotel.
