Tours to KYRGYZSTAN

Kyrgyzstan’s landscape of high, forested mountains and lush, grassy steppes attracted Silk Road travelers thankful for the region’s high mountains, cool climate, sparkling lakes and green valleys after the perilous, exhausting and arduous desert crossings.

It was this location on the main Silk Road that has bequeathed Kyrgyzstan with the ruins of entire cities, trading towns and caravan sites of the Turks, Kyrgyz, Sogdians and other ancient travelers, as well as places linked to the spread of the Zoroastrian, Buddhist, Christian and Muslim religions.

In addition to Silk Road sites, tourists are attracted to the country’s stunning natural beauty. White-water rafting, trekking, mountain hiking and even heli-skiing are all on offer for today’s adventurous and intrepid traveler. Others experience a truly unique cultural holiday by enjoying the hospitality of one of Kyrgyzstan’s many authentic nomad families still living in felt yurts out in the mountains and happy to accept guests.
