I spent more than 2 weeks in Kyrgyzstan working together with the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and the local tourism board to show you an interesting mix of the best things to do in Kyrgyzstan from outdoor adventures and cultural insights to overwhelming food experiences.
Beside checking out the local attractions I got the chance to stay like a local in a yurt camp, went hiking with locals and horse trekking like a true nomad ;)
Even though I spent quite some time in the country I could only focus on the western part and couldn’t go as deep into the mountains as I wanted to as the infrastructure isn’t as developed yet.
This trip was executed within 15 days - following I list all the places I visited & Things to do in Kyrgyzstan:
- Alamuu Yurt Camp
- Karakol

- About my Cooperation with UASAID & Discover Kyrgyzstan -
This trip was made possible by the support of the American people through the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). The contents are the sole responsibility of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of USAID or the United States Government.
Discover Kyrgyzstan helped me plan the logistics. But overall I was free to create my very own itinerary with all the freedom needed. Nevertheless all opinions, recommendations and views are my own.
This video is part of the #DiscoverKyrgyzstan project.
