Kyrgyzstan – Mountains and Valleys of Transoxiana

Tucked away in the high mountains of Central Asia, Kyrgyzstan presents an intriguing travel destination that is both stunning and awe-inspiring at the same time. When visiting this sparsely populated nation of just under 7 million people one thing is for certain – you will not be far away from beautiful natural environments and hospitable people. The combination of mountainous landscapes, a nomadic lifestyle and traditional Islamic culture gives Kyrgyzstan a unique character that cannot be matched elsewhere.

“Seeing and experiencing, first hand all of these places that I have read about, seen videos of over the years and new places that I had little or no knowledge of was truly a huge blessing. The trip enabled me to not only learn of the legacies of the remarkable people that lived and travelled in these very places once upon a time. But it was made very tangible for us due to us being able to visit the graves/mausoleums of these giants and speak about their life works. We were blessed to be able to pray in the most beautiful and peaceful masjids that were built in many places too.” (A Hanif, June 2023)

“Oue guides in Kyrgyzstan were amazing.” (Hafsah, June 2023)
