About the Adventure
Kyrgyzstan is a nation defined by its natural beauty and has been described as a "surreal Switzerland". Joyously unspoilt mountainscapes, stark craggy ridges and rolling jailoos (summer pastures) are brought to life by semi-nomadic, yurt-dwelling shepherds. Â MAG is exploring this country by car and self driving. Don't worry, just hop on and be a passenger and enjoy the beauty the country has to offer. We will do offroad, small hikes and inhale beautiful greenery while mountain caps will still be covered by snow. Â
Itinerary
Day 1Â
We will arrive early morning in Bishkek, pick-up the cars and drive to Issyk-Kul Lake where we will stay overnight in a yurt camp, right on the shores of the lake. Â
Day 2Â
After breakfast we will head to Karakol but not without stopping at a few gorges and waterfalls. We will stay in Karakol and explore the city in the evening. Â
Day 3Â
After breakfast, we are going for scenic drives and the higher we go to reach an ice-cold mountain lake, we might still see a few snow patches. Lunch will be served in a traditional yurt in the middle of the gorge. We will spend another evening in Karakol. Â
Day 4Â
After an adventurous drive to the top of a mountain, we will switch from 4-wheel to 4-hooves and take a scenic ride through the valley along an ice-cold river. We end with a dip into hot springs and then we will drive back to Bishkek. Â

After breakfast we roam the market for some souvenir hunting and then we will go back to the airport. Â
