The Great Trek - Kyrgyzstan

The Great Trek B

5 star rating   26 August 2025

Jessica (this is their first In The Saddle holiday) Kyrgzstan Trek B | I was worried about not being riding fit due to work/travel commitments prior to the trip but the riding was very managable with plenty of breaks and the option to walk for periods if needed. I really enjoyed that you had the same horse for the whole ride so you got to build up a bond.

Do you have any comments about the accommodation and food?

The food was really delicious and there was always plenty - I packed a lot of snacks from the packing list and never had to open them as I was always full from the meals and there was usually a 5pm afternoon tea/ snack session before dinner aswell. I really felt immersed in the culture as we stayed right with families.

Everything was incredibly well planned in terms of logistics and the routes and the support vehicle was always ready to meet us. The camping equipment was very easy and quick to put up and down and there was always help available if required.
