All Bishkek Tours & Excursions in 2026

Great 2 days spent with lots of activities included. The lake is beautiful and I enjoyed the hikes through each canyon aswell. The yurts were super comfortable. The transport was also comfortable too. Highly recommend this tour if you are pushed for time. Our guide Sima was great.

I can’t really explain how much I enjoyed this day tour, mostly crediting that enjoyment to the natural beauty and personality of Bishkek and Caityln in general, but also especially due to my tour guide Farukh’s extensive knowledge and experience in the country. Farukh is both well informed and extremely funny and social. He is patient and loves to answer any questions you may have. If you want to both have a trusted and amazing guide to help you explore the national Park as well as the capital city, then this is the perfect sample platter trip for you especially with Farukh. I would recommend everyone that comes to Bishkek to book a trip like this, especially on their first day! My only mistake was not leaving any days left in my trip to do some of this company’s other Ala Archa’s national park multi day hiking trips.

I had an excellent experience on this tour and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Bishkek. The tour was very well organized from start to finish. The meeting instructions were clear, our guide Анвар arrived right on time, and we departed promptly at 8:00 a.m. We were a small group of only three people, which made the experience much more enjoyable and personal. The scenery in Ala Archa National Park was absolutely stunning. The mountains, river, and fresh mountain air made for a fantastic day, and we were lucky to have beautiful weather as well. The hike was easy to moderate and took about two hours in total, including the optional extension to the bridge. I really appreciated that Анвар gave us the flexibility to decide whether we wanted to continue hiking or turn back, rather than following a rigid schedule. Анвар spoke excellent English and was very knowledgeable. Throughout the day he shared interesting information about the history of the national park, Kyrgyz culture, and local traditions, including the Kyrgyz tradition of burning archa (juniper) and using the smoke for spiritual cleansing and protection. He also explained how the name Ala Archa is connected to this important plant. These details added a lot to the experience beyond just the beautiful scenery. Everything was relaxed, and we never felt rushed. In fact, Анвар regularly offered to take photos for us so we could enjoy the views without worrying about selfies. The transport arrangements between different parts of the park were smoothly organized, and the related costs were already included in the tour. Overall, this was one of the highlights of my time in Kyrgyzstan. If you're visiting Bishkek and enjoy nature, beautiful mountain scenery, and a well-organized small-group experience with an excellent guide, I can't recommend this tour highly enough.
