what a pity to learn that the tour is not longer running, when the TourRadar website says it is available. Maybe take it off from there to not create more shattered hopes?

Many apologies but this tour is no longer running this year.

This was one of the best things I’ve ever done, I had such a wonderful experience, made brilliant new friends and saw the most stunning scenery imaginable. YellowWood Adventures made the trip so enjoyable and painless, so if you want a different kind of adventure off the beaten track, I highly recommend you book with these guys!!”

I did a similar tour with Yellow Wood but one that incorporated the World Nomad Games at Issyk-Kul. The landscape was of course the star of the show, with an itinerary that allowed us to experience a range of locations, from the Silk-Road splendour of Tash Rabat to the unmatched serenity of Song-Kul, experiences enriched by tour leader Sam and his able crew of Kyrgyz assistants, always aware and attentive but never intrusive. Yurt accomodation was surprisingly comfortable and the food, prepared by local families, delicious and plentiful. I would not hesitate to recommend Yellow Wood to anybody looking for a stimulating, memorable and ultimately exhilarating Kyrgyzstan escapade – particularly if Sam keeps his promise to upgrade the tour bus!

Joining the trekking tour to Kyrgyzstan with YellowWood Adventures was the best experience ever. You embark on a true adventure going to remote non-touristy places unlike other rival tour operators that boast of going to unbeaten paths. The company offers a bespoke personalised service and you are certainly not treated like a reference number. I highly recommend the YellowWood Adventures experience.
