Bogdan.

We really enjoyed our tour with Bogdan and his brother Artem. Both were friendly, helpful and great company throughout the trip, and we appreciated their knowledge of the area. Our only disappointment was missing the top viewpoint at Charyn Canyon. We’re fast walkers and would have easily been able to make it to the viewpoint and back, so we were a little disappointed not to have had the opportunity to do it. Overall, though, we had a great time and would highly recommend Bogdan and Artem to anyone looking to explore Kazakhstan. They made the trip enjoyable and memorable, and we would happily travel with them again.

Our family had an absolutely wonderful experience in Almaty, and we cannot thank our tour guides Bogdan and Artem enough for their exceptional service and genuine care throughout our trip. From the very first inquiry, they were responsive, professional, and incredibly helpful in planning our itinerary. Every detail was thoughtfully arranged, making the entire experience smooth and stress-free. What truly set them apart was the kindness and attention they showed to our 1-year-old son. Traveling with a young child can be challenging, but they constantly went above and beyond to ensure he was comfortable, happy, and well cared for. Their patience, warmth, and thoughtfulness made us feel like we were traveling with friends rather than just guides. Their hospitality didn't end when the tours were over. They continued to assist us right up until our departure, even helping us at the airport and ensuring everything was taken care of before we left Almaty. That level of dedication and personal service is something we will never forget. Thanks to them, our time in Kazakhstan was truly memorable. We wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone visiting Almaty. If you're looking for knowledgeable, reliable, and genuinely caring guides who treat you like family, look no further. Thank you for making our trip so special—we hope to return one day! Shane, Fareen and Cairo.

Bogdan took us on a 370km transfer from Almaty, Kazakhstan to Karakol in Kyrgyzstan. The car was comfy for our group of 4 and our large luggage. He took us to some scenic spots along the way and was very helpful with strong communication leading up to, and during the trip. We would 100% recommend if you are doing any tours through Kazakhstan as Bogdan and his brother made us feel very welcome and accommodating the entire day.

We had such a great time in Kazakhstan with Bogdan. From the very beginning, he took care of everything and really listened to what we wanted, creating an itinerary that fit us perfectly. He went above and beyond to help us experience the country like locals, sharing stories, culture, and insights we never would have discovered on our own, and took us to some truly beautiful places. He’s super ambitious, knowledgeable, and really funny, which made the whole trip even better and very relaxed. Even with the short time we had, he managed to show us so much without ever making it feel rushed. By the end of the trip, he didn’t feel like just a guide but a friend. We felt completely taken care of and couldn’t have asked for a better introduction to Kazakhstan. We honestly couldn’t recommend him more. PS: We even came back knowing a local card game called Durak ;)

I had an unforgettable 3-day camping trip in Kazakhstan, starting from Almaty, with Bogdan and his brother as my guides. They went above and beyond to make the experience special — preparing a spacious, comfortable tent for me and cooking delicious BBQ dinners under the stars. We camped in the breathtaking Charyn Canyon and by the beautiful Kolsai Lake, and they were with me every step of the way, making sure I was safe, comfortable, and enjoying myself. Their sense of humor made the trip so much fun, and their excellent English made it easy to learn about the local culture, history, and people. One of the highlights was when they took me to a secret lake with no tourists — a true hidden gem where I captured stunning photos and drone footage. Bogdan and his brother Artem are not just professional guides; they are friendly, caring, and passionate about showing their guests the beauty of Kazakhstan (and even Kyrgyzstan). If you’re planning to explore Almaty or beyond, I can’t recommend them enough!

Had an amazing 8 day tour around Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan with Bogdan and Artem. As a solo-female traveler who is only 18, one of my top priorities was safety and they did a great job at making me comfortable. They felt like older brothers and always made sure I was well taken care of. Being vegetarian, I thought finding good food in these countries would be difficult, but I was always fed (maybe too much) and they would even go back and forth with the servers at restaurants to figure out something for me to eat, even if it was not on the menu. Looking back, it is not just the tour itself I remember, but their humor and good company. I walked away from the trip with a lot of inside jokes, a lot of apricots eaten, and the phrase "sleep 5 minutes." No explanation there, you'll see for yourself! Bogdan is such a cool guy with a lot to talk about. I loved our deep talks about life and our shared mindset. Artem is super chill and never complained about driving 6+ hours at once. I'd recommend these two if you're not looking for boring, typical tour guides - they feel like family by the end and saying goodbye will be hard! Even though Bogdan did not support my energy drink habit, I appreciate the new love for tea he gave me. Can't get behind the horse milk though..... but I still recommend you try it for the experience! To Bogdan and Artem: sorry this review wasn't 400 pages like I promised, but you guys were the best way to end a month of traveling. Perfect balance of chill time and activities and your patience with me was so appreciated. I will never forget all the stories you shared :) Thank you so much - I hope to come back!!!

It was an amazing week spent with Bogdan and Artem who felt like our brothers from across the continent! We got along so well and the fun that we experienced was magnified 10x because of their warmth and friendliness. Big bro Artem drove very well despite challenging terrains, was very gentlemanly and caring (always buying us the best local fruits and snacks along the way!) and consistently provided top notch care. Younger bro Bogdan brought true good vibes to the party. He was endearingly genuine, making the friendship come alive through solid conversations over campfires, fun kazak card games and shared moments under the vast steppe sky. He was also always ready to lend a hand and made us feel at ease from the very beginning. With them, we didn’t simply witness the stunning beauty of Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan. Instead, we were invited into the heart of their world and we caught glimpses into their lives as locals. 10/10 would recommend, especially if you’re looking for an experiential journey and not simply sight seeing. Thank you Artem and Bogdan for showing us the very best parts of your homeland! We miss you both! Love, Jiayi & Charlene❤️

Everything was perfectly organized, following our requests and needs....and even more. We were able to experience Kazakhstan visiting not only the touristic attractions but also the places known only by locals. They were always available to fulfill our requests but their ability to involve everybody in every experience and activity made this trip a truly memorable family and life experience. Travelling with 3 adolescents we were worried to not be able to entertain them and have them interested in the country we were about to discover. With Bogdan and Artem this was never the case.
