Citizens of many countries, including the EU, US, UK and most of the Gulf states, can enter Kyrgyzstan visa-free for up to 60 days. Rules change from time to time, so we recommend checking your country's requirements before booking and we're happy to help point you in the right direction.
Late May through September is peak season for mountain travel: high passes and yurt camps like Son-Kul are only accessible then. Spring and early autumn are quieter and still beautiful lower down. Winter opens up a different side of the country, from skiing near Karakol to snow-covered valleys.

Accommodation, transport between destinations, a guide and most meals during the tour are typically included; each tour page lists the exact details. International flights, visa fees and personal travel insurance are usually not included.
