2-Day Small-Group Nomadic Adventure to Song Kul Lake

Our guided trip to Song Kul Lake was the highlight of our time in Kyrgyzstan. Orozaly was incredibly knowledgeable about the region, its history, and its culture, and he made us feel completely safe even on the challenging mountain roads. His calm, confident driving gave us peace of mind and let us enjoy the scenery. The horse riding and Yurt stay was amazing, and the views over the lake and surrounding mountains were breathtaking. Everyone we met, from fellow travelers to local families, was warm and friendly, which made the experience even more special. Highly recommend Orozaly and the Tour agency to anyone wanting to experience Song Kul.

Song-Kul is a must-do while you’re in Kyrgyzstan, and this tour was the highlight of my trip. The lake surrounded by horses was breathtaking and so peaceful. We also stopped at a ton of spots along the way for photos, and every viewpoint was stunning. Orozaly was the best guide we could have asked for. He had such great energy, was incredibly attentive to the group, and made the whole trip easily enjoyable. He’s a very experienced driver, which made us feel completely safe on the roads. Highly recommend this tour!

We visited three different countries over our 15 day trip, and we spent 8 of those days in Kyrgyzstan. This tour was absolutely the best part of our whole trip. Our guide Rashid was incredible and knowledgeable, and he was happy to answer every question about Kyrgyz life and culture. The experience he created made the whole trip perfect. Song-kul itself was larger than life, but we also really enjoyed the stops we stopped at on the way to and from the lake. In particular we enjoyed 33 Parrots Gorge and Burana Tower. The finale of the tour was an eagle hunting demo that was one of the very best parts. We will be recommending this tour to everyone we can convince to visit, and we will specifically recommend Rashid. Thank you very much to Rashid, the rest of the staff, and the folks who hosted us at their camp at the lake.

I had a truly magical experience spending two days in mountain in Song Kul region of Kyrgyzstan. My tour guide Dastan took care of everything for me. I didn't have to worry about any fees or lunch. The stay inside the yurt fekt cozy. The nights can be windy and cold even in summer so I advise anyone reading this to bring a warm jacket and a beanie cap to cover your ears. However the inside of the yurts were heated and felt comfortable to sleep. Dastan also helped me with horse riding for 2 hours in the mountains. The horses were calm and fun to ride. The locals taking care of the yurt camp prepared traditional dinner and breakfast which felt like being invited for a feast. Highly recommend anyone visiting Kyrgyzstan to experience the region of Song Kul if you like spending peaceful and a calm day in nature.

Our guide, Elnur, brought a really nice positive energy and helped us understand more about Kyrgyzstan life and culture as he has good English language. He was flexible and included a few side quests (like the Boom gorge trek), and he helped us get vegetarian food, both of which really added to the whole experience.

Our tour guide, Orozaly, was very attentive and friendly. Throughout the entire trip, they were very reassuring and went the extra mile to ensure we had the best possible experience. Kyrgyzstan was wonderful, and we were able to experience that even more through this trip. The route was also quite enjoyable. I definitely recommend it.

The whole experience was amazing. The guide, activities and driver were all great!

The trip was wonderful and we had a very friendly guide. Since there was not enough people for group I had to take it as an private tour along with other guest. The yurt had the required facilities for such as showers and Western washrooms for an remote area.

This tour was an amazing experience! I was pleasantly surprised by how well the hosts in the yurt camp catered for me as a vegetarian. The veggie food was pretty good! Our guide Abdinur was very friendly and super helpful. Would definitely recommend!

It was an amazing trip and I enjoyed it a lot. Sleeping in a yurt is a never forgetting experience, the horse riding was also super nice. (It was my first time horse riding) Orozaly is a great guide who’s an amazing driver and very patient and helpful. I’d definitely recommend this trip to everybody who wants to visit Son-Kul.
