Overview
OK, let’s set the scene: you’ve decided to visit Kyrgyzstan and of course Issyk Kul lake.

You already know the answer – this fascinating express tour to one of the most beautiful lakes in the world, Issyk Kul! Undoubtedly this one will be the best addition to your packed schedule since the tour covers the most of some really exciting experiences and places of Issyk Kul’s south coast. Although you won’t make it to the north side of the lake, trust us you’re not gonna be left disappointed, for sure! Spend a couple of days hiking in canyons, sleeping in a yurt, visiting historical sites, watching the eagle hunt, trying the national cuisine and more. Two days – hundreds of impressions…
