We will be waiting for you at 8.00 a.m. on the day of departure at the Kyrgyz Tourism office – Abay,21 ( Olive Hotel)
If you have time before the departure day, you are welcome to our office for the briefing, meeting and to have a cup of tea.
Sure, you can stay in Song-Kol for more days and plan your trip independently. Your guide can advise you on the best options and help you to find the local service providers for long-distance trekking or horseback riding in the Song-Kol area.
Of course. Karakol is the region where are various options to do activities like trekking, hiking, horseback riding, and planning the trip to the places like Alakol, Jyrgalan, Khan-Tengri park, Ingilchek, and so on. And your guide would be useful to give you all the information and reach the right people to have the best itinerary or to find other groups to join some expeditions.
If you will have an extension, the rest of the tour and route you need to organize by yourselves, and that’s for the additional expenses. The rest of the 300 USD will not be returned.
If you agreed and took this tour, but will use only part of the program or services, we cannot refund you even part of the money. For example, if you only want to drive as far as Karakol and end the tour on Day 3, you still pay a fixed amount of 300 USD. This is because shuttle bus services are paid for the set program and an itinerary.
Children from 12 years old, together with their parents, can join the tour with full payment, as for an adult. Young children require more attention and demands. This is also to avoid disturbing other travelers along the route. We recommend taking a private tour for families with small children. We are a child-friendly company and would like to offer a tour for families with children. Please see here – Children’s Quiz tour
