An excellent short tour
I had an excellent 3 day tour around Issyk Kul lake. The trip was well organised to see all the main places of interest the beautiful scenery and the highlights for me were helping erect a yurt and the eagle show. Accommodation was really good too especially the yurt camp at Ton village with snowy mountains on one side and lake beach on the other. It was so beautiful. Food was good too. In Karakol visited historic mosque and Orthodox church. All in all an excellent short trip.

Excellent Tour guide
I traveled with Ilyas in August 2025, and I had a wonderful experience. Before the tour, I was a little worried and unsure whether everything would be reliable. However, from the moment we met, Ilyas was friendly, professional, and very trustworthy. He went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience. He was enthusiastic about showing us different places, shared interesting information about each location, and was always happy to answer our questions. His positive attitude and willingness to help made the trip enjoyable and stress-free. I highly recommend Ilyas to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, reliable, and genuinely caring tour guide. Thank you for making our trip so memorable!

Deep heart of Kirghizistan with a trusted guide
We spent an enthusiastic 5 days Tour with Ilyas. He considered our tempo while bringing us to stunning places. He always have the good story to tell and jokes to make the moment unforgettable. He knows the best places to visit, the perfect accommodation for the nights and tasty meals for lunch. And be aware, his car is very comfortable with good music! A man to be discovered, a country to be enjoyed.

Unforgettable experience !!
Illyas ist ein außergewöhnlich guter Guide. Wir haben eine fünftägige Tour rund um den Issyk-Kul und durch verschiedene Regionen Kirgisistans gemacht – alles war hervorragend organisiert und jede Station auf ihre Weise beeindruckend. Was besonders heraussticht, ist seine Aufmerksamkeit: Illyas merkt oft schon im Voraus, was man braucht, und sorgt dafür, dass man sich durchgehend gut aufgehoben fühlt. Zudem fährt er sehr sicher, was die Reise zusätzlich angenehm macht. Durch seine frühere Tätigkeit als Lehrer bringt Illyas ein umfassendes Wissen über die Politik und Geschichte Kirgisistans mit und teilt viele interessante Hintergründe und Zusammenhänge während der Tour. Darüber hinaus ist er ein sehr herzlicher Mensch, was die Erfahrung auch auf persönlicher Ebene besonders macht. Die Unterkünfte waren ebenfalls durchweg hochwertig und mit viel Sorgfalt ausgewählt. Ich kann Illyas uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen – eine Reise, die definitiv in Erinnerung bleibt.

10/10 experience
I booked a 3d2n tour with Ilyas. Right from the get-go, he was incredibly friendly and speaks decent English. What I like is that Ilyas is earnest, and has the tourist’s best interest at heart. His tours are not ‘scammy’ and he has the best locations/residences that immerse tourists into the Kyrgyz experience. As I was doing a lot of photography/videography, Ilyas was patient and willing to take multiple pit stops for me. He’s also pleasant and never shows a sour face. All-in-all, I would definitely come back to Kyrgyzstan with him as a tour guide.

Let me tell you everything you need to know in one review.
Honest guide and very much more affordable compared to other tour agencies. Compare yourself.
If you need a change of plan. Ilyas will accommodate to his best.
He helps to take photos and videos without reluctance.
He puts his tourist first before himself or at least that's how I felt in terms of all aspects, mainly safety.
As much as he's doing this day in day out, I felt like I was his first client.

Myself and my friend had an incredible experience with Ilyas. He organised a 17 day trip all around Kyrgyzstan. We got to see, and experience so many different landscapes, as well as learning so much from Ilias about the history and culture of the country. We couldn't recommend him more highly!

Traveling with Wander Kyrgyzstan was an absolute highlight of our trip, largely thanks to Ilyas! From the very beginning, he was exceptionally responsible, responsive, and caring. Long before we arrived, Ilyas reached out via WhatsApp to help us prepare, ensuring every detail was sorted and every question answered.
The entire itinerary was thoughtfully tailored with activities perfectly suited to our pace and interests. When we mentioned wanting to do kayaking and horse riding, Ilyas helped us organize both seamlessly. What stood out most was how flexible he was—he effortlessly adapted the schedule according to actual situations on the ground, making the journey feel stress-free. He also arranged our accommodation strictly according to our wishes, even securing a comfortable yurt with a private toilet.
He brought us to places that were breathtakingly beautiful, showcasing the best of Kyrgyzstan's raw landscapes, and was always ready to help us capture the memories with incredible photos at every stop.
If you are looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and personal travel experience in Central Asia, I cannot recommend Wander Kyrgyzstan and Ilyas enough!
