Kyrgyzest was born from a simple idea: to share the true beauty of Kyrgyzstan with the same care, quality, and attention found in the world’s most thoughtfully designed travel experiences. My name is Jamilia. While I have been studying and living in London, my heart has always remained in my home country, Kyrgyzstan. Exposure to international standards, cultures, and travel expectations showed me how powerful a well-crafted journey can be - and inspired me to bring that level of excellence back home. The journey truly began when friends from England and France came to visit. I guided them through the mountains, nomadic landscapes, and traditions I grew up with. They were struck not only by the country’s raw natural beauty, but by the warmth, hospitality, and authenticity of everyday life. What began as hosting friends soon became something much bigger - a realisation that Kyrgyzstan deserves to be experienced with intention, care, and respect. Today, every journey we design reflects this vision: small group sizes, trusted local guides, and carefully selected accommodations, even in the most remote regions. Kyrgyzest is more than a tour company. It is an invitation to experience Kyrgyzstan through local eyes, shaped by international standards - and guided by heart.
Our mission is to showcase the true beauty of Kyrgyzest through carefully curated experiences, delivering high-quality service even in remote regions. We focus on safety, authenticity, and emotional connection, ensuring every journey feels personal, inspiring, and unforgettable.
While studying and working in London, I, the owner of Kyrgyzest, learned the value of strong organisation and world-class service. I bring this experience into Kyrgyzest, ensuring our tours are run with professionalism, reliability, and authentic Kyrgyz hospitality.
At Kyrgyzest, we are passionate about Kyrgyzstan and know it like no one else. We work exclusively with trusted, highly experienced guides, drivers, and partners to ensure every trip is safe, seamless, and of the highest quality.
At Kyrgyzest, we keep our tours small and personal — a maximum of 10 guests per group. Each group travels in one vehicle with one dedicated guide, ensuring a friendly atmosphere and a truly connected travel experience.
We focus on quality above all else- from carefully chosen accommodations and the best vehicles to trusted guides and seamless planning. Every detail is designed to create a high-end, comfortable, and memorable experience for our guests.
Throughout the tour, you’ll enjoy a variety of traditional Kyrgyz dishes such as beshbarmak, manty, lagman, kuurdak, boorsok, and many more.
The menu is designed so that each day offers new flavors, with no repeated meals. Vegetarian and light options are available upon request.
Since Kyrgyzstan is a Muslim country, all meals provided during the tour are halal.
We always choose the best possible accommodation available in each location, even in remote areas.
Whether it’s a yurt camp or a hotel, we select the highest-quality option on site. The same applies to transportation — comfort and reliability are our priority.
Your well-being matters to us, and we make every effort to ensure your journey is smooth, comfortable, and enjoyable from start to finish.
Most countries do not need a visa to enter Kyrgyzstan. However, we always recommend checking the official e-visa government website https://www.evisa.e-gov.kg/ in advance, just to be sure.
If you are unsure, feel free to ask us anytime — we’ll be happy to assist you with the latest information.
You don’t need special physical training to join our standard tours. However, please be ready for several long drives between destinations — sometimes a few hours.
The good news: every drive is filled with beautiful mountain views, and we always provide water in the car for your comfort.
We also include a horse-riding activity in the program. The horses are trained to work with travelers, and as long as you follow the guide’s instructions, it’s a safe and enjoyable experience.
For our Horse Trekking Tour, we recommend having some basic experience, as horse riding is planned every day during this specific itinerary.
During the group tour we will provide a local sim card for you.
