Hello! I’m Iskender — born and raised in Bishkek. Though I’ve spent most of my life here, my travels across Europe and Central Asia have changed the way I see my hometown.
What used to be a routine city now feels like a fascinating place full of hidden stories, unique flavors, and vibrant contrasts.
Traveling taught me to look at Bishkek as if I were seeing it for the first time — with curiosity, wonder, and appreciation. Since then, I’ve rediscovered this city: its rich history, diverse neighborhoods, warm people, and evolving culture. I’ve developed a real passion for sharing these discoveries with others.
If you're curious about local life, historical gems, and where to taste the best plov or samsa — I’d love to guide you. I speak fluent English and can also hold a conversation in French and Portuguese. I have my own transport, so we’re not limited to just the city center — I can show you hidden corners and peaceful parks beyond the usual routes.
My goal? To help you experience Bishkek not just as a tourist, but as a welcomed guest.
It was a great tour and we learned a lot about Bischkek. Highly recommend :)
We had a terrific walk with Iksander around Bishkek. We particularly enjoyed some of the quirky information he provided. We also appreciated how open he was to answering our numerous questions.
Iskender is a very knowledgeable guide who presented the information super well! He also answered all our many questions about Kyrgyzstan, its history and culture and I'm really happy I could join this tour in Bishkek.
