Re: Horse riding from Kotchkor to Song Kol lake
Indeed, 26500 is highly expensive !! As I said we paid 3700 each with Jailoo for 3 days. The difference, however, is that it came without food or accomodation, having our own tent. Also, we were a group of 4 to share the guide's price. But even is the same conditions, CBT was more expensive. We also...

Re: UPDATE: Russian Tourist Visa in Tashkent
Exactly. They did not ask any ticket. I had heard about some possibility to get the visa easier, from europe, if you make a transiberian trip (so in those conditions the ticket was needed).
