FAQs

I'm an international guest, do I have to apply for a visa to come to Kyrgyzstan?

This depends on your country where you are from. More than 60 countries don't need any visa to enter Kyrgyzstan (most EU countries except Bulgaria, Cyprus and Romania). Please bring your passport and check if you are able to enter without a visa (Visa map of Kyrgyzstan)

You are saying there is a 1 day field trip included, what is it about and where are we going?

Yes, allthough it is optional to join on this day (Thursday 10th of October 2019), we highly recommended it. As one of the biggest assets of Kyrgyzstan is the beautiful nature and we will drive out of Bishkek and explore the nearby mountain area for a 2-3h hike. Sport shoes are enough. More details what time we start and where we are going exactly will be told in the workshop.
