- APaula· July 23rd, 2023Lots. The eagle hunter and his feathered friends were fantastic. The bumpy ride up to the hot springs. Swimming in the lakes and the countryside all great. The best night was the restaurant with the live music at Karakol. Really good musicians.Show moreTrip date: July 2023Review collected by Explore!

- PPhilRisdale· September 17th, 2022Far too many long travelling days on very poor roads with not enough breaks. Even on the 'stay put' day in Karakol, the itinerary includes another 4 hours on an army vehicle (there and back) with a very short walk included. All walks included, except one, were very short strolls and not 'hikes' as the itinerary suggests. The Bisktek guest house is OK but far too far out of town to allow any sort of exploration of the city when you first arrive. Homestay was fine, as was the Karakol hotel. One common feature was the very small beds with horribly lumpy mattresses - all except for the Yurt Camp, which had the most comfortable beds of the entire trip.Show moreTrip date: September 2022
- ADavid· December 23rd, 2019Because Gatwick to Istanbul flight was late we missed connection. Turkish Airlines responded well with 4 hotel and new flight next day.Show more
