TRIP REVIEWS (1)

Kate

We were waiting for this experience with such anticipation. Now I can say that our huge excitement was fully justified. Kyrgyzstan is a country of so many surprises. Cozy towns such as my personal favorite Karakol, the breathtaking nature and scenery of mountains and lakes, will capture your mind and soul. 

The hotels were chosen very carefully by our tour agent Tatev, who was so professional and organized. Most of the hotels and guesthouses were located in a walking distance from the city center. We enjoyed our evenings walking down the streets and having a glass of wine in small outdoor cafes.

The marvelous time we have spent in Kyrgyzstan, will warm our hearts and fill our memories with endless beauty! Arara Central Asia is the company I am going to recommend to all my friends and colleagues who would love to travel to this part of the world.
