Ala-Archa tour - It was a great experience to explore the Mountain and our tour guide Boca was so amazing, friendly and speak English fluently so we dont have any difficulty to understand and know the culture. I would highly recommend him for friends for their trip in Bishkek.

Amazing Hiking Experience - Probably the best tour I've booked in all of my travels. The guide/owner and the driver were very professional. I am so happy that Ash (owner/guide) gave me a lot of encouragement to keep going with the hike despite the trail being very slippery and to some extent physically-demanding. Ash will also adjust to your hiking-competence level, I wouldn't say I am very good, but because all of his assistance especially on the slippery slopes, we made it up to the waterfall. In the end, it will give you a feeling of accomplishment and a lot of hunger.😁😁 Overall the experience was really amazing.

Great winter hike! - Communication before the trip was great. So was the pickup and transportation. Despite the snow, we managed to hike up to the "Broken Heart" in Ala-Archa with the provided walking poles. Ash, our guide, spoke perfect English and was easy to communicate with. Our conversations gave us further knowledge about both Kyrgyz culture and society. We also received some tips for Bishkek and our further travels. We highly recommend this tour and the agency!

Winter hike adventure - Winter escapade❄️ to Ala archa national park involves quite a bit of climbing, which in the snow and ice was a fun challenge, but the views were magnificent, and we were able to enjoy taking pictures and drinking hot tea at the top. We also encountered some small wildlife, makes my sister Ai Ai so scared 🤣🤣🤣✌🏿 fell down twice 🤣🤣🤣✌🏿 & due to the recent snow turning to ice it’s really very slippery and since I wear a wrong type of shoes I always slide back down till the end part of the mountain 🤣, but we had a lot of fun in doing. Thanks to ventura tours specially to ASH our very friendly and hospitable guide for helping us and showing the natural nature of kyrgyztan, I hope I can come back and see the beauty of nature during summer,spring and Fall 😊😘
