In the morning after pickup from your hotel we’re starting our beautiful adventure. The first location ahead is the UNESCO World Heritage listed Burana Tower, a minaret from the 11th century. We’ll spend about 30 minutes exploring this historical gem: climb on the top of the tower for panoramic views of Chuy valley, walk around balbals (ancient stones with depictions) and visit the archeological museum with antique items. Moving on.

After a 1,5 hour drive we’re reaching Kok Moinok - a mesmerizing, compact canyon that offers some otherworldly views! Here, we’re embarking on the loveliest, easy hike to explore the canyon’s inner labyrinths. Taking photos on the panoramic platform and enjoying the absolute tranquility. Returning back to the car. Now it’s time for the well earned lunch in a road cafe.

Afterwards, we’re moving back towards Bishkek but taking another way, through the picturesque Issyk Ata valley. And here is where we’re visiting the natural hot spring pools. It’s time to relax! And don’t forget to bring your swimwear ;) Soaking in the pools for about 20-30 minutes. Now it’s time to be returning back. Driving to Bishkek over a small mountain pass (1 hour).

Superb outing at kok moinok

The tour was excellent with attention to detail and sheer professionalism. The tour guide Any was knowledgeable and super fun to hang around with. She kept us on our toes and inspired us to do some of thr areas of thr trek which were w bit hard but in the end totally worth it. We were a bit skeptical to book through Ventura as it was our time but Ash who is thr manager at Ventura was quite a professional fellow, from the day we booked thr tickets to thr end he always coordinated with us. I totally recommend Ventura travels and tell you to ask for Aky as your tour guide .

5 Star Tour!

We had one of the best vacation of our lives thanks to their amazing team, our special thanks goes to Ms Madina and Mr Adi. They were so cheerful, kind, had such sweet souls, whenever we needed help they were there for us. I will never forget Ms Madina’s stories, tales, myths about Kygyzstan. We took 2 different tours from the same tour guide (Ms Madina) and driver (Mr Adi). Mr Adi was not only our driver but he also helped us to climb the difficult paths, without him we wouldnt be able to complete the tour and without Ms Madina we wouldnt have such a nice journey! Thank you so so much! I definitely reccomend Ventura Tours to everyone!
