We had a great trip to Big Almaty Lake by car. Our driver was very knowledgeable and fluent in English, as was the taxi driver who drove us up to the lake itself. Highly recommend!

Loved the hike - Nurzhan made it feel like we were hiking with a friend rather than a guide we just met. He was engaging, fun, funny, personable and gave us a sense of life in Almaty. Top guy, top tour…thank you for the wonderful day, Nurzhan! Highly recommend.

Very amazing trip. The view is nice, the trail is not that difficult. Also, Dos is very cool tour guide. I learned a lot during the trip like what stan stands for, the history of Big Almaty, its utilities, and kazakh culture. Thanks Kazakhstan Very Nice agency!

We were picked up exactly right on time. This is the second time I booked with KZ Very Nice and the guides we got were kind and warm. Fortunate to had Dos as our guide, got to learn a lot from Kazakh culture while being in awe with the nature. He made sure we were having a good time also which was highly appreciated!

The hike was amazing and beginner-friendly albeit the path was very steep. There are options if you don’t prefer walking and two paths to choose from; we chose the steep but short path on the way and the long but scenic path back. Our tour guide Doz was a bit shy at first but very friendly. We got to talk to him and he assisted us very well along the way. All in all the while tour took about 7+ hours due to us taking breaks and lots of pictures. Definitely would recommended! 🙌

Our guide Zhandos was great and had excellent English to talk to our group. We had in depth conversations about the lake, Kazakstan geography, exchanged culture, and more. The driver and ease of pickup and drop off was great. Breathtaking views!
