Getting to the city
The cheapest way into Bishkek is usually the public bus or shared minibus that runs from outside the terminal, and it suits travellers with light luggage and time to spare. A taxi is faster and more predictable, especially after a late arrival, but agree the price before you set off and avoid anyone who approaches you inside the arrivals hall. Allow extra time for the road at busy periods, keep your documents handy for the first hours in the city, and if your flight lands overnight, arrange your ride in advance rather than waiting at the kerb.
