As far as I can see this is the only dedicated guidebook to Kyrgyzstan. This is the third edition of the Bradt guide to this interesting, inspiring and relatively unknown country. Kyrgyzstan flies under most travellers radar but it is a beautiful country and while tourism is underdeveloped you can trek, alpine climb, horseback ride, sail in areas of unbelievable beauty where people are friendly and you feel safe. Also at time of writing there are few visa restrictions. The guide is in its third edition and while it has been updated it is little changed from what was recorded in the first edition. In particular, Bishkek has changed dramatically in the last three years and “places to go” may have closed, changed ownership or changed out of recognition. Use the guide as an overview don't expect to find what is written.
