I was able to ride while watching the beautiful scenery. My guide Tologon told me about Kyrgyzstan and enlivened the place, and I had a lot of travel time.
Great experience. I absolutely recommend this if you are limited on time, if you have more time choose a longer trip you will not regret it.
The winter view in Chemin was beautiful. Maks - our tour guide and organizer from Atlas.kg was really helpful and well-taken care of us for our 2 days tour. We love the tea break next to the river bank and the horse riding across the snowy field and the village. Horse Riding seems to be a challenge for none experience, but with clear instruction and guidance from the team, I can confidently climb up the horse and enjoy the ride with 1 leader.
Spent a wonderful day visiting the Burana Tower and beautiful surrounding countryside with my guide, Ulan. He is a great guy and guide. I particularly enjoyed chatting with him to better understand Kyrgyzstan, and we also exchanged stories about our lives. In addition, I appreciated that Ulan showed up on time and that the operator, Atlas.kg Tours, was flexible in arranging this private tour. I was also grateful that Ulan came back to the hotel after the tour to drop off my jacket, which I had left in the car. All in all, it was a great day.
Visiting Burana Tower in Kyrgyzstan is an unforgettable experience that will left you in awe of the country's rich history and cultural heritage. Situated amidst the breathtaking landscapes of the Chuy Valley, Burana Tower stands as a testament to Kyrgyzstan's ancient past. The minaret dates back to the 9th century. You will be fascinated by the remnants of the ancient city of Balasagun. From the remnants of the fortress walls to the stone petroglyphs scattered throughout the area, every corner of Burana tells a story of centuries. I would highly recommend a visit to Burana Tower with Atlas.kg to anyone traveling to Kyrgyzstan. Whether you're a history buff, an adventure seeker, or simply looking to immerse yourself in the beauty of Central Asia, Burana promises an unforgettable journey back in time.
