Tips to organise Eagle Hunting Demonstration!

The best place to see an eagle hunting demonstration is on the southern shores of Issky Kul, specifically Bokonbeyvo. 🦅 What do you get? We got to hold the eagle and let its wings flap. They demonstrated how the eagles hunt with a jackal skin. They also demonstrated their local hunting dogs (Taigan) which is often their partner during hunting season. And finally we got to play some archery the nomadic way! 🎟️ How to organise a demonstration? 1. your guesthouse. Our guesthouse happened to just live opposite of the eagle hunters so we got special treatment and got to sit in a small sedan with them. We paid 4000soms 2. Through CBT Bokonbeyvo 💵Cost? 4000-5000soms per demonstration. You might need to organise a car transfer to take you to the location of the demonstration as well. Each call out for the demonstration is that price, so if you have more people, then obviously the pp cost will be less. 🚌 How to get to Bokonbeyvo Matshruka from Bishkek Western Bus Station. (approx 4-5hours). Cost 400soms pp. Matshruka from Karakol (approx 2 hours). Cost 250soms pp. ⭐️ Recommend? Yes we definitely recommend it! Although it is a very pricey experience compared to everything else in Kyrgyzstan, holding a golden eagle and sitting in a car with one was a one in a life time experience.

Rum Titanic Camp

If you’re visiting Jordan this spring, Wadi Rum should be high on your list. Also known as the Valley of the Moon, this otherworldly desert landscape is like stepping into a movie set — literally! #travelinspiration #adventureawaits 🏜️ My Experience: I spent a day exploring Wadi Rum and chose to stay the night at Hotel Rum Titanic, which turned out to be a highlight of my Jordan trip. From the moment we arrived, we were immersed in the stunning vastness of the desert — orange sand dunes, dramatic rock formations, and endless skies. During the day, we joined a desert excursion in a 4x4 with a local Bedouin guide. We visited iconic spots like Lawrence’s Spring, Khazali Canyon, and climbed a red sand dune for sunset. The silence of the desert and the golden glow on the rocks felt surreal. As night fell, we returned to the hotel, which is located right in the heart of the desert. The ambiance was magical — the sky turned into a galaxy of stars, and we enjoyed a delicious traditional dinner followed by Bedouin tea around the fire. The staff were incredibly welcoming and made us feel like family. 🏨 Why I Recommend Hotel Rum Titanic: - Comfort meets authenticity: The rooms are clean, cozy, and give you a real desert-camp feel. - Location: Right in the middle of Wadi Rum, perfect for catching the sunrise or joining morning hikes. - Great food: The dinner buffet was full of tasty local dishes, and breakfast had plenty of options. #deliciousfood #foodie - Friendly hosts: The staff shared their culture and stories, making the experience feel personal and special. ✨Useful Tips for Travellers: - Book a jeep tour in advance or through your accommodation. Most tours include pick-up and drop-off from your hotel. - Dress in layers: it can be hot during the day and chilly at night. - Bring sunscreen, sunglasses, and a scarf to protect against the desert wind and sun. - Stay overnight: Wadi Rum is beautiful during the day, but at night under the stars, it's pure magic. - Disconnect to reconnect: There’s limited signal out there, so take the chance to unplug and soak it all in. 🌵Why It’s Perfect for April Blooms: While Wadi Rum isn’t full of flowers, the desert blooms in its own unique way. In spring, temperatures are pleasant, the landscape is vivid with soft colors, and there’s a sense of calm and awakening that perfectly matches the spirit of April. #aprilblooms #wadirum #visitjordan #springwander #naturalwonders #desertvibes #traveldiaries
