Expeditions

What to expect

Expeditions in Kyrgyzstan go far from roads and villages, to places most visitors never reach. They are longer trips with camping, river crossings and changing mountain weather, led by experienced local guides.
Our 13-day Kel-Suu expedition travels through the At-Bashy valley, rides to Kol-Tor lake on horseback, crosses high passes and spends several days at the turquoise Kel-Suu lake near the Chinese border, including a boat trip and a visit to its cave. For a long journey on horseback, see also our horse riding expeditions from Kegeti and Shamshy to Song-Kol.
Expeditions suit fit travellers who are happy to camp. The season is July to September.

FAQ

Expeditions: common questions

How much does a expedition in Kyrgyzstan cost?

Prices start from $1,210 per person. The price per person drops as your group grows, and every tour page lists the exact price for each group size. Sending a request is free.

How long is a expedition?

Our expeditions take 13 days. We can also add days before or after the tour, or combine it with another route.

When is the best time for expeditions in Kyrgyzstan?

Most of these tours run in July and August, when the mountain passes are open and the yurt camps are up. Each tour page shows its own best months.

Can I join a group or travel privately?

Both. You can join an open group departure and share the cost with other travellers, propose your own dates for others to join, or book any tour as a private trip on the dates that suit you.
