NOTE we will collect you from the airport whatever time you arrive

We will start the day with a walk through the beautiful parks of the city centre and be introduced to the history of Kyrgyzstan.

Watching the changing of the guards under State Flag in the City Centre will amaze you, those guys can march!

Then we are visiting a fabulous NGO that has dedicated itself to the preservation of Kyrgyz Culture since 1995.

It will be a rich afternoon - history, costumes to see, a fabulous lunch and time to stitch.  

Kyrgyzstan is a land of many tribes - all part of an integrated whole, many have Nomadic roots but those over towards Osh tended to farm their lands and were stationary. 

They have a rich history of embroidery and we will be lead be a woman from that area to stitch what will become a purse, we might not finish it today but will have time to work on it along the way.

A quick visit this afternoon to an inspiring business. Felted dolls and Christmas ornaments - beautifully made high end products exported to the world.

Let's share a Welcome dinner together, tonight.

Physical Fitness for Sightseeing 

This adventure is designed for enthusiastic, active travellers with a good general level of health and mobility.

To make the most of your experience, you’ll need to be comfortable walking for 3 to 4 hours a day - sometimes over uneven ground, up hills, or a few flights of stairs. 

Getting in and out of local transport and navigating occasional over-the-bath showers may also be part of the journey.

If you’re up for a bit of daily movement and love immersing yourself on foot, you’ll thrive on this tour. However, it’s not suitable for those who rely on walking aids.
