He was respectful, always gave us options to go farther in the hike if we desired, or to end the hike if that's what we preferred.He is a very genuine human being, and we will remember him as one of our favourite guides ever.

We did two tours with Faruk during our stay in Bishkek including Ala-Archa National Park. He’s a great guide, very friendly and willing to answer all our questions about the city and life in Kyrgyzstan. He went out of his way to take us places we needed like the supermarket and bakery and also drove us to a bar we’d requested after one of the tours. Nothing was too much trouble for him. Would highly recommend.

I just spend an awesome day with Farukh doing the magical Ala Archa National Park and the city sightseeing tour. As we drove through the clouds to Ala Archa, we soon noticed that the first snow had fallen during the night. The scenery was magical! Trip is good for everyone , you can decide how steep trails you want to go. During the sightseeing in Bishkek, Farukh told about life in the city and basic information about buildings and sights. Not numbers and years or architects, but what had happen there. Lunch at Faiza restaurant was really delicious too!

I can warmly recommend his services and what was really the most important thing for me personally, Farukh is nice, genuine and honest person!

We have booked the City tour of Bishkek and Ala Archa National Park and our tour guide, Farooq, provided us with a knowledgeable and professional tour which was more than what we could ask for. He made our tour fun and enjoyable. We have a 16-month-old baby traveling with us, and we thought it would be challenging for us to take the tour, but it turned out really great, even our baby was thrilled and content.

Thank you so much Farooq for the wonderful experience that made our Bishkek stay an unforgettable one.

We hope we can return in the near future and visit other areas of Kyrgyzstan. I highly recommend this company for any tours in Kyrgyzstan. Fatima AlRaeesi

This was actually my second time doing city tour in Bishkek, and it was well worth it. I initially did this tour last summer. When I realized i would be coming back to Kyrgyzstan, I contacted them again and ask if we would do a similirare tour with perhaps a bit more emphases on the sovet harritage of Bishkek. My guide Farukh was generous enough to take me to a few landmarcs he normally would not incluide on the tour, just because he knew it would make me happy. his energy was pleasant, upbeat and he made me feel like i made a new friend at the end of the day. This is exactly what tour should look like.

Farukh was an amazing guide. He was very attentive towards my and another traveler’s needs. The scenery was as expected, beautiful and breathtaking. The place he took us to have lunch was also great. Even though it was raining outside, he made sure we have a fantastic time. Thanks a lot for a wonderful day in Kyrgyzstan!

Amazing experience, we enjoyed the hiking the most. Faruk our guide was exceptional and we enjoyed his expertise.

The hot springs and traditional Kyrgyz food was a great addition as well.

We are leaving Bishkek tonight and going back to Dubai.

Thank you Faruk for being our tour guide and also helping us out with transportation and other things. It was a pleasure to meet you and hopefully we can meet soon.

Kyrgyzstan offers a rich variety of attractions for travelers, from acclaimed restaurants like Navat, Faiza, Supara and Diyar to charming sites such as mosques, churches, historic bazaars, museums, and the delightful Kulikov bakery café. Experience the vibrant nightlife at popular spots like Malekula, Suzi Wang, and Hills, or enjoy a refreshing pint at the Steinbrau brewery pub and Pinta pub. For relaxation, indulge in the luxury of the Sumbul Spa complex. Thrill-seekers can explore exciting activities, including shooting ranges, horseback riding, paragliding, helicopter tours, and rafting amidst stunning landscapes.

Getting around the city is easy with Yandex Taxi’s English-friendly app, but for excursions outside the city, hiring a guide is highly recommended due to the challenging road conditions. While renting a car might seem cost-effective, be cautious of hidden fees and potential language barriers during police stops. Always double-check information, as online resources can sometimes be inaccurate. It’s also a good idea to carry cash, as online payments may not always work. Remember to wear sturdy hiking shoes and bring plenty of water, and don’t forget to download the Maps.me app for reliable navigation. Consider getting a local SIM or E-sim card for better connectivity and peace of mind, Keep in mind that during the summer, road construction and renovations are common in and around Bishkek—what is normally a 15-minute trip can sometimes stretch to 40 minutes, so plan your departures accordingly.

We are committed to being disability-friendly—please let us know in advance so we can ensure the necessary accommodations.

Despite these challenges, Kyrgyzstan is known for its safety, warm hospitality, and democratic atmosphere, where everyone is free to enjoy various activities as long as they respect the rights of others.
