Kyrgyzstan sounds like a hidden gem for adventurers and cultural enthusiasts alike. The combination of stunning landscapes and a taste of traditional nomadic culture is truly intriguing. The community-based tourism network there seems like a fantastic way to connect with locals and immerse oneself in the culture. It’s great to hear that even after multiple visits, Kyrgyzstan continues to captivate you.
After all, traveling to places that challenge our assumptions and immerse us in new cultures is the real magic of exploration.

Thanks for sharing.
Cheers,

Mali, thanks for your feedback in highlighting those three parameters. For us, we wouldn’t recommend a destination in the first place unless we felt it was safe and secure. This is why we never write about or share recommendations about a place that we’ve never visited. However, we can try to highlight those factors more so readers can make decisions accordingly.

Kirk, until now we still have not visited Guyana, but we have had friends who have visited and recommend traveling there. We do hope to have an opportunity to visit at some point in the near future, so check back for updates in the future 🙂

Colombia is very diverse, Wes. And definitely worth a visit. For some ideas and planning, check out our Colombia experiential travel guide: travel to Colombia.

Sana, I do hope that you have a chance to visit Iran and Kyrgyzstan at some point. Both are fascinating and beautiful places, but for very different reasons so you’ll experience something completely new in each place!

Thanks, Todd! Highly recommend visiting Madagascar when it’s possible to once again. Same with these other destinations 🙂

Thanks for the suggestion, Pablo! We have visited Torres del Paine and areas along the Carretera Austral in the northern part of Patagonia. But, haven’t been further south.
