5.00The weather wasn’t great for our trip but this didn’t stop us… we had a fantastic tour guide, Nurzhan. The whole hike was 10.5 miles and took about 2 hours each way. There’s a stop off point half way on the route for a toilet n coffee but there are no other toilets! The hike has different intensity levels, due to weather conditions we took the easy route, which was a great decision as it started snowing towards the top! We didn’t have many other tourists about so was able to move about easily and quickly.
Great experience — many thanks !!

5.00Great experience with hiking to the stunning big Almaty lake. It took about 2.5 hours hiking for one way, but it was worth it! The views of the lake and surrounding mountains were breathtaking. Our tour guide, Alibi was very friendly and kind. He is very easy to talk to and he told me nice places to visit and Kazakhstan songs!!

5.00I have a great day hiking with our guide Amir. We were in a small group of 3 travelers, the pickup was on time. Amir always making sure we were safe during the hike when passing through some steep sections of the trails. We reached the lake on time before it became cloudy. The scenery was spectacular and I would recommend the day trip if you want to experience the landscape without traveling too far from Almaty city.
Definetly a fun experience and worth your time! 🥾

5.00We were picked up from our hotel at 7am and drove to the hiking starting point by car. Our tour guide, Amir, was very friendly from beginning to end and always provided us with interesting and useful information on Almaty and Kazhakstan. The hike itself was exhausting (IF you are not frequently hiking/sportsy like we were) but manageable and rewarding! Our Guide would take breaks when we needed so it was definetly doable! Despite the lake still being frozen, it was still a beautiful experience and still looked nice! At the lake we took a break, talked and had snacks together, which was very nice. Since we were only four people, we had nice conversations on the way down. Amir also took (nice) pictures of us during the hike and sent them to us later, which is really neat. Definetly recommend booking with this tour agency :)
Good climb

5.00Zhandos is a young and energetic guide. He is able to communicate with us with English, which is helpful. He makes sure we are always on track and check with us from time to time if our hike is okay. He is also so nice to share us oranges, snacks and food during the trip. Very warm and he's knowledgeable as well.
