Travel Beyond the Ordinary. Experience the Soul of Kyrgyzstan

KYRGYZEST

Where it all began

Kyrgyzest was born from a simple idea - to share the Kyrgyzstan we grew up with: warm-hearted people, untouched nature, ancient traditions, and moments that stay with you long after the journey ends.

Founded in London and deeply rooted in Kyrgyz heritage, Kyrgyzest combines international-level organisation with genuine local hospitality. We work exclusively with trusted guides, experienced drivers, and local families who carry the true spirit of Kyrgyz culture in everything they do.

For us, travel is deeply personal. Every guest arrives as a traveller - and leaves as part of our family.

Where every route leads to authentic Kyrgyz adventure

When you do something from the heart, people feel it

I travelled with Kyrgyzest in June 2025, and it was honestly one of the best trips I’ve ever been on. What I loved most was how perfectly it combined adventure, culture, and history. You really get a bit of everything, which is hard to find in 8 days, especially with the language barrier. Kyrgyzest’s local knowledge made the experience so much richer. From start to finish, everything was so well organised. When I first got in touch, Jamilia took the time to explain the entire eight-day itinerary over a call, answered all my questions, and immediately made me feel reassured and excited about joining. Throughout the trip, she went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and happy. The highlight for me was definitely the people. Kyrgyz hospitality is something special. And as a horse lover, seeing so many wild horses in their natural landscape was unforgettable. I was also really impressed by how comfortable everything was, even in remote areas. Our driver was great and the vehicle was excellent, which made the long journeys easy and enjoyable. I can’t recommend Kyrgyzest enough to anyone wanting to experience the true beauty of Kyrgyzstan, it’s a country that will stay with you long after you leave ❤️

I honestly didn't fully know what I was signing up for when I booked this trip, but I'm so glad I followed my gut! From start to finish, everything was beautifully planned and taken care of. The trip completely exceeded my expectations. Kyrgyzstan was breathtaking and I feel so blessed to have gotten the chance to experience the country, people and culture with your help. I'm deeply impressed by your dedication to the tours and the care you put into every detail. To anyone headed to Central Asia: don't miss Kyrgyzstan - and especially don't miss out on Jamilia's tours. Highly, highly recommend! Thank you!!! Johanna

Kyrgyzest went above and beyond to make sure we had the best possible experience. We experienced culture, incredible scenery and tried local dishes. Jamilia greeted us with traditional Kyrgyz souvenirs to remember our trip and was so happy to share local experiences with us, including hosting family dinner in her home. Our guide Nazima was incredibly knowledgeable about the country and helped with translations throughout the trip. It's so important to go with a tour like Kyrgyzest for this country as most locals don't speak English and there are so many incredible experiences which you cannot book yourself online. Kyrgyzest offers an amazing itinerary and we got to see so much of the country during our time. I couldn't fault Kyrgyzest, from start to finish Jamilia has ensured it is a trip of a lifetime!

I’ve been recommending all my friends and family to go to Kyrgyzstan with Krygyzest Tours since I’ve been back! It was truly a unique experience. Everything was so well thought and beautifully planned out by Krygyzest Tours - from comfortable transport to beautiful locations. I’m so thankful for Jamila’s service and hospitality - she was there to answer questions before I’d even booked the trip and it was really helpful to have an English speaking guide during the trip too. This was a very different trip for me - I hadn’t done much hiking, camping or ever rode a horse before the trip - Krygyzest made all this such a fun and smooth experience. Thank you again Jamilia!!

Kyrgyzstan, a country that captures the hearts of travelers, was the perfect destination for our tour with Kyrgyzest. Our tour provider, Kyrgyzest, genuinely loves their country, and this passion is infectious. Jamilia, Daniel, and even our driver are passionate about sharing Kyrgyzstan’s beauty with us. They speak English exceptionally well, which made our interactions even more enjoyable. Kyrgyzest truly went above and beyond to pamper us, especially our little ones. They gifted us with precious Kyrgyz souvenirs that we will cherish forever. From the moment we arrived at the airport, we were treated like VIPs. The comfortable and pleasant transport ensured a smooth and enjoyable journey. Traveling with young children can be challenging, but Jamilia and Daniel graciously took turns holding the kids, providing us with much-needed relief. Every aspect of our tour was exceptional. The comfortable transport and accommodation made us feel at home. The breathtaking views, delectable food, and even the music playing in our car, which they took the time to translate for us, added to the overall experience. We had such a wonderful time in Kyrgyzstan that we were genuinely teary-eyed when we bid farewell to our incredibly helpful driver. We want to express our deepest gratitude to Jamilia and Daniel for making our tour truly unforgettable. As I mentioned earlier, we believe we left a piece of our hearts in Kyrgyzstan. We eagerly anticipate our return to this beautiful country and can’t wait to create more cherished memories with Kyrgyzest.
