About this tour

In this exclusive tour we won’t take you to the popular touristic locations in Almaty region. Our team during the COVID-19 lockdown discovered 6 brand new locations and made a special tour for our guests. We called it «The Range of Mountains». This tour refuses the myth of the lifelessness and desertness of Kazakhstani nature. During the trip you won't worry about the pandemic: no people, no crowds, only you, nature, your guide and driver.

In 6 days we will visit real alpine meadows, spend the night under a starry sky in a wide variety of landscapes, overcome a spectacular pass, learn about some features of nomadic lifestyle, enjoy the

beauties of «Komirshi» and «Temirlik» gorges, we will see the beauty of «Tekes» high mountain

valley with its waterfall and soaring red-book birds. We will visit the lake «Bestyubinskoe», which spread among the five mountain hills in the channel of Charyn River.

It is worthwhile to note the opportunity to capture the “Lord of the sky” - Khan-Tengri peak (7010m) from the most advantageous angles with reflection in the salt lake «Tuzkol».

At the end of the tour, we offer a choice: enjoy the thermal hot springs in contrast after a cold mountain pass with a visit to the "Valley of Castles", or to see 4 beautiful canyons that differ in their structure and beauty.
