All Bishkek Tours & Excursions in 2026 - page 8

The tour is really interesting, you get to visit some of the most popular attractions and try some of the best food. I had such an amazing time with Shaiyrbek. He’s been very nice and helpful throughout the day and made me feel super comfortable. I highly reccomend it. Thank you 😊

Alex was amazing! He was knowledgeable, helpful, friendly, informative, and kind. It was a miserable winter day, but we enjoyed walking around the city and learning so much about the country, the city, history, their hero’s, and a whole lot more. Time flew by. He also helped us with some recommendations for the evening for places to eat and such. This was time well spent and I highly recommend this tour with Alex.

Our guide Faruk was great. He gave us detailed information about Bishkek and its sights, and, in addition, shared his personal knowledge and life stories with us, which gave us a much better understanding of the country and the city. His engaging personality and enthusiasm contributed greatly to the thoroughly enjoyable time we spent with him – way more time than the 3-4 hours mentioned in the description on the website. We had already taken a city tour and expected more emphasis on food. Faruk was flexible enough and happy to adjust the itinerary to better suit our expectations and did add some more information we did not cover on our other tour. That said, the title “Food Tour” is misleading. Although we were taken to 3 restaurants – a coffee shop, a location that serves a special snack, a local restaurant for lunch, and tasted our way through the food section of the bazaar, the other part of the tour was a general city tour which included the major sites in Bishkek. I would suggest the description of the tour include a more inclusive description of the itinerary, perhaps “Food and City Tour”.

Despite the rainy day, our group got on really well together and enjoyed the hike, including up to Broken Heart Rock. Nurlay was very helpful, friendly and polite. Four of us wanted lunch after and Nurlay took the trouble to find a Navat for us. Would recommend this trip!

We were very satisfied with the airport transfer. We received all the necessary information on time, including the pickup location, the driver's name and phone number, the car’s license plate, and the type of vehicle. The driver arrived punctually, and the agency contacted us to confirm his arrival. He was polite, helped us with our luggage, and drove very safely. The agency always responded to our inquiries within minutes, and the price was very reasonable. We felt safe at all times and will definitely book with the same agency again next time.

Burana tower was interesting but not spectacular, compared to other Silk Road sights. We then had a small traditional snack which was great. Then on to the canyon....involves a long walk, through narrow ravine, with use of ropes to pull up rock falls on maybe 8 occasions? I have bad knees but the guide and fellow traveller helped greatly. Then ravine opened up and what a view!! Absolutely fantastic and 100% worth the effort of getting there.The guide was 100% too.

A wonderful day trip to Ala Archa to hike to broken rock. The hike was about 2 hours up, a good challenge. Our guide Medina was professional, organized and fun to be around. My friend stayed behind within the park complex where there are many coffee shops and places to stroll and relax. Followed by a delicious lunch at a local restaurant where we had the best beef samsa.

I and our private guide went outside Bishkek and went to beautiful Ala Archa National Park. We were able to hike as far as I wanted. There were stunning views and bold red squirrels. We then drove back for a city tour. Since I had already seen most of it before, we just went to the main mosque. We then had a nice lunch.
