About us

About Kyrgyz Routes

A small local team showing travellers the Kyrgyzstan we grew up with — mountains, horses, yurts and the families who live there.

Our story

Kyrgyz Routes was started in 2019 by Islam Sultangaziev, a guide who grew up in Karakol, between the mountains and the summer pastures, lakes.

We wanted travellers to see the Kyrgyzstan we know: not only the famous viewpoints, but the families, horses and yurts behind them.

Today we organise horse treks, mountain hikes and cultural trips across Kyrgyzstan for small groups and private travellers, always with local guides and families who know the land first-hand.

Why travel with us

Local team

We are based in Bishkek and work with guides, horsemen and yurt camps we know personally. When you travel with us, your money stays with local families.

Small groups

Our group tours are kept small — [up to 6–12 people] — so everyone gets a good horse, a warm place in the yurt and time to talk with the people we visit.

Routes made for you

Every tour can be adjusted to your dates, pace and budget, or run privately for your family or friends.

Clear and free to ask

Sending a request is free and without commitment. We reply within 24 hours with a clear plan and price — no hidden extras.

Travelling responsibly

[Confirm or edit:] We pay our horsemen, guides and host families fairly, keep groups small to protect the pastures, and ask our travellers to leave no trace in the mountains.
