About Kyrgyz Vibes

About the local team and our journey

Our Story

Kyrgyz Vibes is more than just a travel company — it’s the result of years of dedication, passion, and love for the art of guiding. Our journey began in 2014, when our founder Ms. Erkaim Zhusupova started working as a guide, immersing herself in the landscapes, cultures, and traditions of Kyrgyzstan and Central Asia. By 2018, her passion for creating personalized, and meaningful travel experiences inspired her to work independently as a freelance guide. This invaluable experience paved the way for the official establishment of Kyrgyz Vibes in 2024.
In addition to running the company, Erkaim is also a certified trainer for guides, sharing her expertise and mentoring the next generation of tourism professionals. As a proud graduate of the prestigious World Federation of Tourist Guide Associations (WFTGA) training program in 2023, she is dedicated to elevating the standards of guiding in Kyrgyzstan and beyond jointly with Kyrgyz Association of Tour Operators (KATO).
Today, Kyrgyz Vibes is a proud team of skilled and trusted professionals who share the same commitment to showcasing the authentic beauty and rich heritage of Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, and Uzbekistan.
