Discovered a hidden gem in Kyrgyzstan-thank you Ventura Tours! - We had an amazing trip - As it was still “off season” in April some tourist places to stay/eat were closed but our guide and driver took excellent care of us and made everything work out. Also the people in the support office team were fantastic making sure we were comfortable. The scenery is out of this world - if you’ve always wondered about going to this country just go :) you won’t be disappointed

Friendly and considerate guide, well programmed tour, highly recommend! - 만 3세 아이가 있어서 커스텀 개별 투어로 진행하였는데 3박4일간의 일정동안 키르기스스탄의 정수를 느낄 수 있는 투어였습니다. 친절하고 열정적이며 사려깊은 가이드와 능숙한 운전실력을 가진 드라이버 덕분에 일정내내 편안하고 즐거운 여행이 되었습니다. 이식쿨 호수에서의 수영과 알틴아라샨에서의 멋진 풍경, 유르트에서의 캠프 파이어와 별이 빛나는 밤하늘 등 잊을 수 없는 멋진 순간들이 가득한 투어였습니다. 키르기스스탄에서 투어를 한다면 꼭 여기를 선택하세요. 강력추천합니다. Well programmed tour. Guide was friendly and enthusiastic, driver was skillful. The tour was full of unforgettable moments. Highly recommend this company!

I Learned a Lot. I Saw So Much Beauty - For 3 days I was immersed in Kyrgyzstan culture, beauty, and foods. I was quite comfortably driven to an awesome selection of sites. My guide Baiel (in photo) and driver Rayum were fun and professional. They were focused on ensuring that all my needs were met and all my questions were answered. I could never have seen so much beauty, and learned so much, without their dedication and guidance.

Great company, highly recommend - We did the 3 day tour around Issyk-Kul with Ventura and had a brilliant trip. We were taken around by Abdi and Baha who were both excellent, really knowledgeable, passionate, professional and great fun. Great food and accommodation choices. We had regular contact with Ash during the booking process and in the run up to the trip, always super quick and helpful to answer any of our queries. This tour made our whole trip to Kyrgyzstan and we would highly recommend Ventura.

Nature, Fun, Safety, Value - I made a reservation directly with a local travel agency in Ventura and had a very enjoyable and safe trip for 3 days. Guide Bek and driver Chang responsibly conducted the trip for a couple in their 60s. Ventura is said to have 26 young, cheerful and knowledgeable guides and staff. There are better things to see and eat in Kyrgyzstan than in Kazastan. I highly recommend it.

Excellent 3-Day Tour Around Issyk Kul - It's an unforgettable experience of a 3-Day private tour abound Issyk Kul! Not only is there a chance to see a picturesque view of the Tianshan mountain, but we can also explore the native cultures, including eagle hunting and Dongan town life. We couldn't have accomplished such a vibrant and tight tour if we hadn't gotten help from our excellent guides, Ash and Bek. Ash and Bek are native Kyrgyz guys who have lived in the US. There's no wonder that they can communicate with people from different nations. They're humorous, friendly and professional( They are skilled at trekking, horse riding and driving, these skills are quite important in snow mountains). I have to say we feel like being with two friends on this 3-Day tour. The tour can cover all your imagination of Issyk Kul. Trekking and horseback riding in snow mountains and canyons, yacht cruising in the lake, visiting native villages and towns, camping. It's really suitable for the tourist who's eager to experience everything around Issyk Kul in several days.

An interesting journey with excellent guide and driver - Boca was a great guide. He was extremely helpful, friendly and very assiduous in carrying out his duties. Baha was an excellent driver. A very big thank you to these wonderful guys. The Burana Tower, Skazka Canyon, Kok Moinok Canyon and Jeti Ogurz Canyon were spectacular and we really enjoyed the eagle hunting experience. We also visited the outdoor museum of petroglyphs by the lake side, which was very interesting as you get to see scenes that were painted from 7 BC as well as balbals. The yurt stay and the horse riding to the waterfall were very enjoyable. The hotel stay however was just so-so because the amenities bottles in the bathroom were empty and there was no air conditioning which made the room stuffy. We opened up the window and tried to ensure the curtain didn’t obscure the window too much. However sunrise is 4:30am, so we woke up to a bird that was perched outside the window, tweeting. We travelled during May so I don’t know what Summer would be like. The places where Boca and Baha took us to eat were fantastic. They were all clean with a fabulous variety of food. Special mention should go to an excellent local cafe in Semenovka where food was made by the family with amazing freshly baked bread that was hot when we got it - even if you are full, you need to try the bread! It would have been a 5 star review however the tour is overpriced for what we paid and the dinner on day 3 was not offered, as is clearly stated in the itinerary.
