All Bishkek Tours & Excursions in 2026

My tour guide was Tulegen. The drive to the park was safe and smooth. He stopped at the supermarket on the way so I could pick up some snacks for the hike. Hike was easy even in the snow, couple of hours, but with gorgeous scenery on the way. Tour guide was with me the whole way. After that we took the cable car and took some pictures there. Was picked up from the hotel on time, and dropped back off to the hotel. Highly recommend this tour.

Chingiz was my tour guide. His English was perfect and his explanations were all clear. Car was comfortable, he arrived on time. He safely took me to all the three sites despite some harsh weather conditions. This tour introduces you to a lot of the beauty of Kyrgysztan. Highly recommended

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.

My wife and I arrived in Bishkek two days early for an organized tour of the "Stans". We booked a private half-day food tour with Datka Travel for our second day. We were picked up at our hotel at 10 AM by Faruk. He was our guide and driver. We skipped breakfast at our hotel so our first stop was Faiza Restaurant for our main course. We ordered laghman and plov, two local dishes and kompot to drink. All delicious. Our next stop was a walk through the Osh Bazaar where we spent a considerable amount of time walking off our meal. We walked past stalls selling traditional Kyrgyzstan bread, horse meat sausage, smoked bacon, plucked chickens, various salads and much more. We sampled a few treats along the way. Faruk drove us to Navat Teahouse for a dessert sweet named Chak-Chak followed by a cozy, family-run restaurant where we enjoyed Kattama bread. Faruk drove us around Ala-Too Square pointing out the statues, monuments and buildings that surround the area. Our last stop was a visit to the beautiful Bishkek Central Mosque. The tour normally ends with a drop off at your hotel. However, we needed a hotel change to join our tour group the next day. Faruk was kind enough to provide our hotel transfer! The half-day food tour from Datka Travel complimented our group tour by providing a well-fed overview of Bishkek. We highly recommend Datka Travel!

I really enjoyed this hike to the waterfall. The views were amazing the whole way up. My guide was very good and stopped a store to pick up our lunch before the hike. He was fun to talk to and made it a very enjoyable day. This is an easy tour from Bishkek. The tour operator had excellent communication before the tour. I would highly recommend.

We had amazing guide Farukh, very knowledgeable and helpful. Hike wasn’t very difficult (but you need proper shoes, no sandals or flip-flops). Burana tower is impressive along with stone idols around it. We had two stops for food and it’s also was good. Long and memorable day.

It was a beautiful experience. Ala-Archa Park is sublime and the tour around the city very interesting. Mainly, my tour guide Faruk was just a very kind, gentle and caring person, which made the tour really worthwhile. Everything worked on time and efficiently, the car was comfortable and the food was abundant and really good. Highly recommended.

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.
