Horseback Falconry Trip to Kyrgyzstan

Kyrgyz falconer Description: after a night in a hotel, sightseeing tour around Bishkek city, capital of Kyrgyzstan, and dinner at one of Asian restaurants we will drive to a destination taking numerous stands to take pictures of the ineffable mountains. As part of adaption period and necessary measures for warding off mountain sickness we will not be hunting for the first two days but we will do trekking, scouting and glassing for potential game and learning how to carry the biggest bird of prey on your wrist on horseback. Don't worry if you don't have skills in dealing with birds of prey and if you don't know how to ride a horse we will teach how to do it.
The golden eagle is a very powerful bird of prey that can kill such medium-sized game as fox, young deer and young goats that's why hunting with the golden eagle is so spectacular. Watching the golden eagle with wingspan averaging at 2 meters and weight at 7 kg stealthily attacking game is the show that is worth seeing with your own eyes rather than describing. A team leader will get a 50% discount if a group has 5 travelers.
