I loved Kyrgyzstan! And a great contribution to my trip was the guide book! For my first proper offroad journey it went very smooth due to OunTravela's rental suggestions, the permit service and the guide itself. The road status updates can even be found online if a road is still closed or no longer accessible.Definitely get this if you want to arrive prepared in Kyrgyzstan and want to make the most of your journey.

Why Kyrgyzstan?

A land of contrasts, crossed by the Celestial Mountains and the Silk Road, Kyrgyzstan boasts peaks over 7,000 m high. From desert steppes to verdant valleys dotted with white yurts, this is the ultimate destination for an off-the-beaten-track adventure.
