In the morning, your guide will pick you up from your hotel, and you'll immediately head towards Issyk-Kul Lake. En route, you'll stop at Burana Tower and Konorchek Canyons—two key highlights before reaching the lake.

Upon arriving at Burana Tower, part of the ancient city of Balasagun, you'll get an immediate sense of history. Your guide will take you straight to the local archaeology museum, where the artefacts on display paint a vivid picture of the Silk Road's legacy. Afterwards, step outside to encounter the balbals, intriguing stone markers bearing ancient inscriptions and depictions, standing as a silent testament to the area's past. Climbing the tower rewards you with sprawling views of the Chui Valley and Tien-Shan mountains—a perfect spot for reflection and photos.

After exploring Burana Tower, you'll drive towards the striking landscapes of the Konorchek Canyons. In the heart of the Boom Gorge, these red sandstone formations stand like nature's own monuments. Your hike takes you through the canyons' dramatic passageways, where each step brings you to yet another stunning view. The path culminates at a viewpoint offering a panoramic spectacle of the canyon's grandeur—a highlight for any camera or memory.

The day's journey culminates as you arrive at the yurt camp by Issyk-Kul Lake. The traditional yurts welcome you with their cosy interiors, offering a blend of comfort and authenticity. A delicious Kyrgyz dinner awaits inside the dining yurt, where you'll savour the local cuisine in a warm, communal atmosphere. Post dinner, gather around the bonfire to share stories and reflections of the day's experiences, the flames flickering against the backdrop of a starry sky, rounding off the perfect adventure day.
