Kyrgyzstan 7-Day Highlights Tour: Kel-Suu, Ala-Kul and Son-Kul

Discover the full magic of mountainous Kyrgyzstan in one grand 7-day journey! This tour is designed for those who want to see the contrasts of wild nature: from Martian canyon landscapes to high-altitude lakes hidden among glaciers on the border with China.

You will experience full immersion in nomadic culture with overnight stays in authentic yurts under the dome of the starry sky at Son-Kul, an exciting trek over the pass to the turquoise Ala-Kul lake, and the lost world of the hard-to-reach Kel-Suu lake. We will travel through iconic mountain passes, swim at wild beaches of Issyk-Kul, relax in the hot springs of Altyn-Arashan, and feel the thrill of a safari on special transport. This is not just a tour, it is a true adventure that will divide your life into "before" and "after."
