Jeremy_C, Jul 2026

A Perfect Combination of Nature and City Highlights

This tour included a small and easy hike in Ala Archa National Park, as well as a city tour featuring a visit to a local bazaar and the guard-changing ceremony near the National History Museum. My guide, Eldar, was very friendly and knowledgeable, and he helped me take many great photos throughout the day. On the day of my tour, I was the only participant, but the operator was still happy to run the tour as a private experience with only a modest additional charge. I would highly recommend this experience!

The hiking paradise Ala Archa National Park, 1 day

Alden_R, Jul 2026

Great Service

Excellent experience! My guide, Akylai, and drive picked me up from my hotel. On the way to the park, we stopped at a market to get food for the trek. During our visit, there was much construction in the park and we were required to transition to a park shuttle bus at the entrance. The hike was mostly on a paved path and road, but the views were great! We didn't make it to the waterfall because of weather (rain came in) but we had an excellent time regardless!

This is a can’t miss trip...

This is a can’t miss trip in Kyrgyzstan. The views are spectacular and simply breathtaking. The guide was also very kind and he showed us good spots for photographs. Also he was able to take good video and pictures for us. What I really liked about our guide was he’s picking up and collecting the trashes he encounters along the way and puts it in proper bin.

Fantastic tour and one of...

Fantastic tour and one of the highlights of my time in Kyrgyzstan. Everything was well organized from start to finish, and the guide made the experience both fun and informative. The scenery around Song Kul Lake was absolutely stunning, with beautiful mountains, open grasslands, and a real sense of Kyrgyz nomadic life. I especially enjoyed the horse ride and the overnight stay in a yurt. A great experience for anyone wanting to experience Kyrgyzstan’s incredible nature and culture.

Amazing experience

Great overall tour! Manas did a wonderful job taking our group around. We had a small group of 7 people of different nationalities and spoke different languages. He tried his best to ensure everyone was comfortable and safe. We loved every part of the tour from the beautiful hikes to Konorchek Canyon and Skazska. The views were amazing at all places. Beltam Yurt Camp was wonderful. It was a beautiful yurt which was heated and had hot showers! The dinner and breakfast available was also very good. No complaints!

Great tour guide with great English

Faruk is a great driver, great guide, and speaks great English! Clean car! My friend and I had an excellent time. We didn't want to go into the hot spring pools so we just walked around a little bit. We learned a lot about Kyrgyz culture and daily life. We strongly recommend Faruk as a tour guide.

My tour guide was...

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.

4 Hours Private Bishkek Food Tasting Tour

Glen_D, Nov 2025

Private Bishkek Food Tour

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!

Bishkek Airport Private Arrival or Departure Transfer

Dora_H, Sept 2025

Very good airport transfer in Bishkek

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.
