- Come join us for a yurt tour in Kyrgyzstan by Issyk-Kul Lake as we stay overnight in Kyrgyz yurt at Bel Tam Yurt Camp located on the outskirts of Bokonbayevo. When traveling to Kyrgyzstan one of the ultimate experiences you can have as an adventure traveler is to experience living in a yurt. You'll have an opportunity to do this on overnight trekking or hiking experiences in Kyrgyzstan but you also can experience an overnight stay in Kyrgyz yurt at a camp.
This particular yurt camp was our home for four nights as we used it as a base to explore in and around Issyk Kul Lake and attractions nearby Bokonbayevo. Our yurt tour gives you a tour of inside of our yurt, the camp area, the showers and toilets at the yurt camp, the dining communal area and several overhead drone shots of the yurts. We highly recommend yurt camping and the place we stayed at was fantastic. You'll notice the location below:

Yurt Tour in Kyrgyzstan by Issyk-Kul Lake Travel Video Transcript:
Well hello hello from Kyrgyzstan. You guys have probably gotten used to our hotel room tours around the world but this time around we're staying at a yurt camp and if you've been watching our Kyrgyzstan videos you may have gotten a few glimpses of our yurt but we're going to be showing you the whole complex.
So right now we're staying at the Bel Tam Yurt Camp and we're on the shores of Issyk-Kul Lake and we're just outside of Bokonbayevo. That is the name of the town. So now that you know where we are let's actually go inside the yurt. Come along.
And we are what?
We are the mountain goat. There are no numbers for the yurts just cool drawings. So we got the mountain goat at the very end of the property so come on in.
These wooden doors that we close at night. So two sets of doors and now come on in. There is no electricity in here so it is a little bit dark but follow me.
So this is it. You are inside our yurt and technically this yurt sleeps three people but it is just the two of us in here. Although our suitcases have exploded so it looks really messy and we've actually taken over the three beds.
So if you take a look at the ground it is basically carpets. So they've put down a sheet of plastic so that we're not like trailing in sand and dirt. Yeah.
And that it is just a whole bunch of carpets on top. That plastic is right there. Yeah.
And then for our beds we have mattresses. Yes. With lots duvets but we have slept in yurts where you don't get a mattress it is just like blankets and mats. Yep. So this is pretty comfortable. No, this is really nice.
Yeah, it is really nice to have a mattress like this. And I just love how colorful it is. I know. It is wonderful. Like check it out.
Look at even up top here. It is so cool. Yeah.
And I don't know if you've mentioned this but we've been getting the best sleeps here. Oh my gosh yes. So like I mentioned there is no electricity we just have a few candles that we light at night. Yeah.
So that means we get to bed. Show the other one that has all of the wax. That has the melted wax. The wax is running off. Look at that.
So we've been laying that at night. Yeah, and then as soon as we're ready to sleep we blow it out and it is basically pitch black until the morning but the nice thing is that we're here in June meaning that like it is light out by five in the morning. Yes.
And it stays light out until eight or eight thirty at night?
So alright and as you may have noticed there is no toilet in here so we're going to give you a tour of the rest of the camp so follow me out.
Alright, so before we take you to the bathrooms we're actually going to show you the dining yurt because that is on the way.
And that is an even bigger yurt and everyone gathers here for breakfast, lunch and dinner and we all eat together.
And but I would really recommend it if you're coming all the way to Kyrgyzstan you need to stay in a yurt.
This is part of our Travel in Kyrgyzstan video series showcasing Kyrgyz food, Kyrgyz culture and Kyrgyz cuisine.

Over five years later and I am here, tucked under the comfy covers in my yurt watching a tour video of the same camp I am already in.
Hope you enjoyed both in Kyrgyzstan. Anytime most welcome to Kyrgyzstan 😊😘
Thank you! We had a great time :)
This place is simply amazing......magnificent......
Thank you! It was a lot of fun staying there for several nights.
THE BEAUTIFUL AUDREY - IN KYRGYZSTAN!
Love it when you take me somewhere that I know nothing about .... You two are good at this ... well done and thanks
Thank you very much!
Wow, the introduction to this Yurt Camp was awesome!!! Audrey, you are an excellent tour guide. All my questions were answered. ... and I would like to have a courting swing in my garden!!! Love to both of you!!!
Thank you! Ah, that would be a great addition to any garden or backyard :)
You are very smart youtuber.I love you
Thank you!
Thank you very informative video
Sam and Audrey really enjoy the videos and look forward to next adventure, must be wonderful see all the stars at night no light pollution. take care and enjoy the rest of your trip.
Thank you very much! It really was wonderful to be out in nature. I think it reminded us how important it is to escape cities whenever we can.
Hi Guy's,
Really admire and envy your adventurous spirit's.
I'm pretty sure I will never visit this place, so thank you two for showing it to us.
Love those tree branch hangers, ha ha.
Jim.
.
Thank you Jim! We need to make some of those hangers for ourselves in the future :)
You, guys, are awesome!!!
Thank you!
Toutes vos vidéos sont excellentes ! Merci pour leur publication .
Merci!
wow that Yurt 😍
hahaha swings seems fun. ^_
It was a lot of fun :)
We were looking into Bel Tam, and your video actually made the place likable and tryable. Thanks for sharing💕
Thanks! That is great to hear.
I like your Kyrgyzstan videos. Now, this is getting exotic. Great idea for a destination. I'm suspecting it was physically challenging. Nobody spends half a day on a horse, as a casual, without paying for it. I'm suspecting mutton was #1 on the menu... I think the swing is a test of synchronisation. -"Can they work together?". It seems wise to challenge future couples that way. I liked that you showed that.
You guys are advanced travellers so I like to see you struggle. It tells me That if I was to go there It would be a real shock. So I live my trip to the heavenly Kyrgyzstan to you but I still get to see it. Keep it up and thanks
Thank you! We love these kinds of trips because of the challenges and rewards we experience along the way. Kyrgyzstan is a special destination for us. It reminds us of why we want to keep doing what we're doing.
so peaceful
Thanks! It sure was.
It looks amazing. And I think this content is not into Spanish
It is the first time I see this video and the first time I see this kind of travel and complex. I'm loving it!
so interesting awesome video
Thank you very much!
You 2 are so much fun...no offense but I laughed out loud at the swinging part of the tour ! Thanks for making my day. 😎
Ah, thank you! LOL, we were hanging on for dear life ;)
You two Rock! Thanks for this n come stay at my place in Fairbanks some time, Miles Cobbett
Thank you very much!
Look at night to the sky and you can see wonderful view of million stars. It's amazing. You must see it. I can describe it. It fantastic view you can see in Issik-Kul region in Kyrgyzstan.
Ah, great to hear!
Would have loved to see a food video. From the sound of your enthusiasm about the food it would have been rather entertaining.
Thank you! We have a few coming up soon. A full one from Karakol (cooking/eating) and then another one from Bishkek :)
Great video and presentation of this nice yurt camp! Best wishes and a wonderful weekend!
Thank you very much! We had a great time there :)
We too, but the video will need still some time :-) Best wishes!
Cool to hear! Best wishes with the video as well :)
it's wonderful 😍
Thank you!
Hope you guys are well , will catch up with your vlogs soon just so busy in London , just wanted to say hi keep up the great work 👍😃
Thank you! Wishing you the best in London :)
👍
London london..crazy tempo( I wanna go to Issyk Kul and have some fresh air and a good swim.
Mooie.. Uitstekende 👍👍👍👏👏👏
I have missed a few of your videos 🙁 I'm sorry I've been so busy lately.
Thank you! Hope you're doing well :)
Now I understand why Jacob confused Leah for Rachel....no electricty...hahahah
And you can see a Milky Way at night.....(Not a choc) miss you Issyk Kul((
Audrey y Samuel traten de poner los subtitulos en español ya que yo no se ingles jajaja gracias amigos
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you!
Is it safe to travel to Kyrgyzstan or in Central Asian country?
Yes, I would say it is quite safe. I think driving is the one area where you'll want to make sure you have a good driver. People drive very fast over there.
Mate its safer then in Londons some areas at night) People are friendly and very hospitable towards foreigners...
Your translate is very funny
When I was little and we had to use outhouses, I was always afraid of accidentally falling in, especially at night, and the outhouse was basically wooden plank with a hole in the middle! It's funny Sam that you guys show the toilet, right before you say "not so scary" you show an empty toilet seat cover paper dispenser, lol. By the way, I think I heard you guy say that the families you were staying with were observing Ramadan but then on some of the places you were visiting sold alcohol or had fermented drinks, I am assuming the population you are visiting are either mix population, including non-Muslims or it could just be Muslims who indulge alcohol occasionally? I was just curious about that. And finally, I already miss the dog from the your first stop, I guess he didn't follow you guys, lol.
Thank you! Ah, I think our biggest nightmare would be to fall into the hole...LOL To answer your question about that most people in Kyrgyzstan are Muslim but some don't observe the customs as strictly as others. Ah, that dog was awesome. I wish we could have had him come along our whole trip.
Great video guys thanks for doing this appreciate all the effort you put into all your vids :).
Was wondering what's the best way to get to this camp, is it via local tour operators or are there bigger tour operators in Kyrgyzstan. Going there in August but a bit bamboozled at the moment!
Thank you! I would suggest you using CBT Kyrgyzstan. They have a website.
Samuel and Audrey - Travel and Food Videos thanks for this :)
👀📸👍👍👍👍📸👀
Thank you!
what camera gear are u using.....No GoPro
To know' it is KIRGYKISTAN, KAZAKSTAN AND UZBEKISTAN
Would like to visit those two other countries someday.
It's spelled Kyrgyzstan. Thanks. I live there 😊
:-)
Krgyzstan is Kazakhstan, right?
みおながのはら now this is two different country. We like Russia and Ukraine.
We do not feud. We veerrryyy similar, our languegues, cultures, food, even looks! We both nomads. But both have different history.
If you wanna know ditails you can read our history books in internet. It's kinda hard to explain...
Great Vid guys....Can you book it on bookings.com?)))) i bet you can..and its much cheaper too isnt it..BTW lots of wild marijuana there )
Eeew, used toilet paper in the bin? It must stink in those toilets!
You don't linger beyond what needs to get done ;)
We were cycling there :) You can see the video here: th-cam.com/video/qtJO6s5N_BE/w-d-xo.html :) Thank you :)
That is very cool to hear!
Guy why won't you travel in Kazakhstan? :/
This is basically where were born nomads
Well, I live on Kazakhstan and my country is one of the youngest one. (We exist for loong time but officially become country only in 1991, Yeeaahhh history time! :D)
Why i'm telling this? Cause we still "growing", so don't expect stm like Japan or Korea. Soon or later we become waayy cooler than this countries >:D
Our people is pretty friendly, but most of them don't know english :(
But not me! :D
I give you some advice. If you wanna go to travel or just visit my country go to Almaty or Astana. (Better go to Almaty my (~˘▾˘)~ fav city)
Hope you will visit and will have good memeries!
Thank you! We'd love to someday.
Steppes and too hot in Kazakhstan..Lat week was 45 plus..Lakeside is much optimal,and Kyrgyzstan is more beautiful....
SomeLove Kazakhstan ?....lol
ha bi orta asya ya el atmamıştınız sakın özgürlük felan götürmyin oralara...
Кошмар ни какой условии! Как можно в таком сарае принимать туристов!
Doctor Lecter именно это и привлекает иностранцев
Doctor Lecter Их привлекает не тронутая чистая природа,воздух,экологически чистые натуральные продукты мясо,овощи-фрукты без нитратов,национально-традиционные вещи,одежда,этнофольклорная музыка и гостеприимство КЫРГЫЗСКОГО народа вот что привлекает туристов со всего мира!!!
Кошмар это ты ) в этом году ( 2018 )приехали больше 5 миллиона туристов ) и у нас население почти такое не учитывая те кто работает за рубежом !
