“More than a guide- an unforgettable authentic experience ”
We spent five incredible days touring Kyrgyzstan with Guliza, and the experience couldn’t have been better. From the very start, she felt less like a guide and more like a friend—an easygoing, warm presence who quickly became part of our group. Guliza is not only kind and fun to be around, but also incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. She went above and beyond to assist us with bargaining, translating, and navigating local customs. Traveling with her made the whole trip feel more authentic and seamless. Highly recommend!

We had an absolutely enchanting day with the wonderful Guliza as our guide! From the moment we set off, a feeling of pure delight settled over us, and it only deepened as the day unfolded. She truly made this tour shine. Her passion was infectious, and her knowledge simply incredible. You could feel her genuine love for the experience in every detail. She truly took care of us, making sure everyone was comfortable, happy, and fully immersed in the joy of the day. Her warm, humorous, and caring nature made every moment joyful and full of wonder. She was truly a delightful companion! It was our first time booking a private tour but she truly made us had wonderful experiences ever!!
