Amazing trip to make the most of your time in Kyrgyzstan! - Since I didn’t have time flexibility for my trip, I reached out to Atlas Kyrgyzstan to create a tailored private tour that aligned with my interests within a four-day timeframe at an affordable price. I highly recommend this agency, and this four day tour to see the highlights of Kyrgyzstan and make the most of your time there. The guide you have can profoundly influence your experience, either making it unforgettable or disappointing. In my case, Mars from Atlas Kyrgyzstan was an exceptional guide. He went above and beyond to showcase the beauty of his country and adjusted the itinerary as needed to ensure I had an amazing experience. Kyrgyzstan surpassed my expectations! I knew about its natural beauty but one thing is to see in pics and another one to experience it first hand. I couldn’t have a better guide (more like a host) than Mars. He went the extra mile in every way possible. The places I visited, the lodges I stayed, the food I ate (I am a vegetarian and he made sure I had plenty of options), and the activities I did were spot on. I can’t recommend this agency and this tour enough!

Great guides make great travel experiences! - The beauty of a country can be only be discovered if you know where to look at. This is exactly what our wonderful guide, Mars, did. He took great care to organize a remarkable, and tailor-made experience. We could get to know Kyrgyzstan from the eyes of its people, through its stunning landscapes and the tasten of its delicious cuisine. Thank you for making my visit to Kyrgyzstan an unforgettable experience!

Crashing Kyrgyzstan with the nicest guide in just 4 days - I had the absolute pleasure of exploring Kyrgyzstan with Mars as my guide, and I can’t recommend this experience enough! From the moment we met, Mars was warm, welcoming, and incredibly knowledgeable about the country’s rich history and culture. It was a great feeling to have an easy and fun company to share the fantastic view with during these 4 days. We visited stunning landscapes—from the majestic mountains to the serene beauty of Issyk-Kul Lake. What made the trip extra special was how our guide shared personal stories, historical insights, and little-known facts that brought each place to life. Whether it was hiking, relaxing in the hot springs, or enjoying a traditional Kyrgyz meal in a yurt, every part of the tour was well-planned and customized to our preferences. I also appreciated how flexible and attentive Mars was to our needs. We felt safe and well-cared for throughout the journey, and he made sure we got the most out of each destination, whether we were interested in cultural sites or simply enjoying the breathtaking nature. If you're looking for an authentic and memorable experience in Kyrgyzstan, I wholeheartedly recommend Mars and Atlas KG! This was a once-in-a-lifetime trip, and I couldn’t have asked for a better guide to show me the beauty and spirit of this incredible country. I would highly recommend and already plan my return trip (horse trekking) to explore other regions of Kyrgyzstan (for exp, Nirin) 10/10 would book again!

Absolutely loved it!! Highly recommend! - A massive thank you to Atlas KG. As a solo female traveller I instantly felt comfortable and very safe. I usually try to find places without a tour, but there's no way I could have found the same places and had this experience without Atlas KG. My guide knew all the best stops and translated everything into perfect English for me. My guide even ordered my food for me and made sure my tea cup was always full. He was very knowledgeable and taught me a lot about the rich history and culture. He really went above and beyond to make sure I had a great time and everything went smoothly. The eagle hunting was a highlight for me. If you're unsure about booking a tour like I was, I would highly recommend it, it was so worth it in the end. Thank you again Atlas KG, I'm so grateful.

Mars, thank you. - We spent 4 days exploring the beautiful country of Kyrgztan with Atlas ag. It was well organized, fun and I would do it again. A special thank you to our guide Mars for making it a memorable. It was because of him that we had such a great time, saw everything we wanted and was able to enjoy the culture❤️

The perfect tour. - We had 5 days to pack in as much as possible and Zamir certainly made that happen. We couldn’t have done half of what we did without him. His knowledge about Kyrgyzstan is Incredible. Would 100% advise booking a guide as you go to places you probably wouldn’t if doing it solo. Also being able to translate is extremely helpful as his English is perfect. I would say we’ve made a friend for life.

Lovely experience in enchanting Kyrgyzstan - We had the most amazing little break in Kyrgyzstan, with Atlas. We flew down from Dubai for a few days, and everything was comfortable for us. Our guide Aziz was extremely friendly, took our requests into consideration and was flexible to accommodate them. The accommodation in the Yurt was nice experience too; it was my first time and I rather enjoyed it. I loved that i didn’t have to worry about anything and we had our meals and everything sorted. They even made sure the meals were catered to my vegetarian friend. I’d 100% recommend Atlas tours (I already have!) for a stress-free, safe and relaxing break.

Amazing experience - The communication with the company was seamless from before the trip. Mars gave us list of things to get and we were well prepared. We were 2 adults and two little kids and the whole itinerary was comfortable even with kids. We totally enjoyed every bit of it. We rode horses, slept in yurt camp, hiked on mountains, swam in the hot spring water and much more. Mars is an amazing guide who is very knowledgeable. He was kind to make tea parties for us by the rivers and introduced us to some Kyrgyz delicacies. Kyrgyzstan is a beautiful country with breathtaking scenery. It should be on every traveller’s bucket list.

DO NOT FALL FOR THIS TRIP - Provider asked for cash payment outside of TripAdvisor booking. Unfit of leading women travel group. They contracted with a sub who will short you of advertised activities. Guide lead group into bad weather in hiking and disappeared from group seeking shelter for himself. Ordered cheapest meals for lunches and dinners. Had to cut tour short due to (later claimed to be optional) filthy hot spring activity and unsafe hiking suggestions. Tour organizer (Atlas.kg) denied any responsibility for shortfalls of the sub guide (Ulan).
