Nomad Homestay, Horse Riding & Hot Springs in Summer Kyrgyzstan | From Bishkek, 4 Days / 3 Nights [No Experience Needed]

[About accommodation]

During the tour, you will visit nomads and enjoy tea, meals, a look inside a yurt and more (everyone takes part).
You will stay in a yurt (mobile dwelling) or in the nomad family's house.

■Group size
This tour is basically for up to 4 people (limited by yurt capacity).

■Booking process
Because we need to ask the nomads to host you for this tour,
after you send a booking request, we will check with the nomads before your booking is confirmed.
We will also let you know at this point whether you will stay in a yurt or in the family's house.

■Accommodation arrangements
- Families (4 or fewer): stay together in one yurt
- Families of 5: split between the yurt and the nomad family's house
- Friends (mixed genders): men and women split between the yurt and the house
- Friends (same gender only): stay together in one yurt
- Shared tour bookings: max. 4 people / open to the same gender as the first person who booked

■Notes on shared tours
Since the yurt is shared, if someone of a different gender applies later,
we may suggest different dates.

■Price
There is no price difference between staying in a yurt and staying in the house.

■If you prefer not to stay in a yurt
Please let us know when booking.
You will visit the nomad family's home and see the yurt, then stay in their house.

* If a yurt cannot be prepared due to the nomads' circumstances, everyone will stay in the house.

* We can accommodate food allergies to some extent if you let us know in advance. Feel free to ask.

* The order of activities may change depending on the weather and traffic.

* For city sightseeing, traffic and museum opening hours vary by season and departure date, so your guide will take you to recommended places based on the time and weather. We are happy to take requests where possible.

* Safety comes first in our horse riding. Cantering is possible where the terrain allows, but it may be called off if the instructor judges it unsuitable based on your match with the horse or the horse's condition.

* What you can experience with the nomads varies depending on the season and circumstances. Enjoy each one-of-a-kind encounter.

* Yurts are limited, so rooms are basically shared, men with men and women with women. For shared tours in peak season, hotel rooms may also be shared by guests of the same gender. We generally arrange for families and friends to share a room, so please let us know when booking.

* Depending on the route, your English-speaking guide may change partway through the tour.


* As a rule, the tour price is paid locally in cash in US dollars.

* If you prefer an international bank transfer, please send payment within a few days after the price is finalized 3 weeks before departure. Note that a $30 fee is charged separately for withdrawing the funds in Kyrgyzstan.

* The itinerary and contents may change depending on the weather and local conditions.
* Children under 5 cannot join this tour.

* Showers at yurts and guesthouses may run lukewarm at busy times. Body wipes are handy to bring.

* If we arrive late due to traffic or vehicle trouble, the hot water in the tank may have run out and the shower may not be usable. The hot water often comes back after a while, so please let your guide know. We do our best to keep you comfortable, but unexpected situations like this may cause some inconvenience. Thank you for your understanding.

* Answers to common questions about our tours are collected in our FAQ, which we update regularly based on the questions we receive. Please take a look if anything is unclear.
