Fantastic tour! So many...
Fantastic tour! So many natural wonder to see in one day! Charyn, Kolsay and Kaindy are all beautiful and very unique. In addition to enjoying natural wonders we also rode horses and had a very cool photoshoot in national outfits. It's a long tour but absolutely worth it! We got a lot to see and do without feeling rushed. The drive was very comfortable and beautiful. Our guide Aikerim did an excellent job

Great fun way to see Kazakhstan with great guide
This was a great tour with an excellent guide, Zhuldys. She did a great job of herding 30 people on a comfortable luxury small bus to 6 locations all over Kazakhstan. The bus had air conditioning,WiFi, and a competent driver. Optional activities included boat rentals and horseback riding. The hikes were relatively easy (and we were the oldest folks at 73) and never more than 5km. A great mix of tourists of all ages from Singapore, Philippines, Canada, India, Turkey, Italy, France and a few from the USA.

Echoes Through Charyn Canyon
We had a wonderful time visiting Charyn Canyon in Kazakhstan. The scenery was breathtaking, and the canyon left us speechless.
Thanks to our guide, Moon, who was friendly and made the trip memorable for us. Her stories made the journey even more enjoyable!
The local food was excellent, especially the lagman and duck dish.
We were also impressed by the driver’s skill. Despite the long drive from Almaty, the ride was smooth and comfortable.
Highly recommended for anyone wanting to experience Kazakhstan’s beautiful nature and warm hospitality:)

The tour start from our guide ordering taxi for us to the meeting point at 4:30 am. I like it as it saves our time and the cost is included.
This was a really long day and the scenery is stunning. Our guide is a very knowledgeable girl who speaks fluent English. She shared a lot culture of Kazakhstan with us. The tour ended in 8:30 pm and taxi picked us back to our separate hotels.
Will definitely recommend this tour if you don’t mind long travel distance and long walking is required but I assure you that the scenery worth the hassle.

Unforgettable 2 Days in Altyn-Emel – Jaw-Dropping Views & Excellent Guiding!
We booked a 2-day trip to Altyn-Emel National Park with Kazakhstan Very Nice, and it was incredible! Our guide, Kassym, was fantastic—extremely welcoming and deeply knowledgeable about the history and million-year-old geology of these natural wonders.
The itinerary was perfect: we visited the 600-year-old willow tree, the volcanic Katutau mountains, and went on an adventurous hike through the breathtaking, colorful Aktau mountains. We stayed overnight at Basshi village, where we enjoyed relaxing accommodations and a decent vegetarian meal. Finishing the trip at the Singing Dunes the next morning was unforgettable. Highly recommended!

Great 8.5 hour private tour with Nura
Despite being only a 19-year-old college student, Nura was poised, intelligent, interesting, and professional, and gave us a great, fascinating tour of everything important in Astana. He was even able to adjust the tour to show us something extra that interested us, taking us to a synagogue instead of a church. He had his own beautiful car and really knew the city and history well.

This experience was just...
This experience was just amazing. We were able to visit so many beautiful sites all in one day, and as someone studying in Astana with very little opportunity to visit the south of Kazakhstan, it was absolutely perfect.
Both our driver and our guide Alibi were fantastic, Alibi was so well informed, telling us fascinating facts about the sites we were visiting, and he even sang for us on the bus!
Thank you so much to the tour operator and Alibi - it was an unforgettable experience!

A Highly Recommended Tour
Mr Nursultan was my tour guide and driver, and he is exceptionally knowledgeable and professional, who, besides the tour site, provided me with insights about Kazakstan in general. We visited the petroglychs of Tanbaly and its visitor centre. It is worth the time and effort to go that far just to see these valuable yet mysterious creations. A highly recommended tour in my opinion

Karina was the best tour guide!
Karina was an amazing tour guide. She is very energetic, friendly, and easy to talk to. She made sure everyone felt included and comfortable throughout the trip. She kept the group engaged, helped us take nice photos, and always reminded us of the timings so everything ran smoothly.
She also shared helpful tips on what to do in Almaty, including food, places to visit, and other tours to try with Panda Tours. Her recommendations were very useful and made our trip even better.
Karina is very organised, caring, and attentive. She always checked on us and made sure everyone was enjoying. You can really see that she loves what she does.
I would definitely join this tour again, and I hope to have Karina as our guide next time. Highly recommended.

This was by far the best tour I've been on, and it was entirely due to my guide, Alan. Astana is a fascinating city, but Alan elevated this experience even more with his incredible knowledge and genuine passion for the Kazakh people and culture. There are guides... and then there are guides of Alan's level. I have taken many tours and never had a guide like Alan.
All in all, this is a great introduction to some of Astana's incredible sights. If you have limited time in Astana, highly recommend this tour. If you can get Alan as your guide, it will be even better.

An absolute must-do - fantastic tour
This tour was incredible! The canyons and lakes are stunning, and a must-see for anyone visiting Kazakhstan. The tour itself is brilliant - perfectly timed to fit everything in, with an amazing meal in a guest house and a very fun off-road ride in a Soviet UAZ truck that I’ll never forget. Our tour guide Serzh was informative and funny, giving us lots of interesting information about the region and Kazakhstan’s history. If you are travelling to Almaty, you should absolutely do this tour. It’s a long day (5:30am pickup, usually back by 8-10pm depending on the size of the group), but it is absolutely worth the early start. Thank you Serzh!

Amazing Almaty
We were very fortunate to have Erasyl as our private guide in Almaty. From early morning pickup to our return to the hotel, he took excellent care of us with his professional approach and advanced English. Erasyl impressed us with his deep knowledge of Kazakhstan's history, science, business, culture, and even politics. He shared fascinating information throughout our journey while always being respectful and mindful of cultural boundaries during our conversations.
Erasyl went above and beyond during our visits to Lake Kaindy and Lake Kolsay. When I struggled with walking in these areas, he provided helpful assistance that made me feel comfortable and supported. His hard work, helpful nature, and genuine care made our experience truly special. Erasyl is a wonderful ambassador for his beautiful country Kazakhstan, and we hope he continues to share his knowledge and passion with more visitors in the future.

Kazakhstan is a special place that welcomes all types of travelers, from nature and culture lovers to skiers to hikers. The small country really wows in the outdoor adventure department; expert guides can take you into canyons and mountains, across glacial lakes, and to stunning wildflower fields. You can also find Kazakhstan tours that showcase the country’s architecture and culture, whether in the modern cities of Almaty and Astana or traditional villages that follow a nomadic way of life.
