Things to do in Almaty

If you are worried about meeting point, in my experience the van came a little bit later than 4:30. Just look for a minivan with Panda Travel livery or anyone with the Panda Travel uniform as they might be your tour guides. The tour was pretty straightforward, not much explanation about the places but the guides shared pretty good tips to wander around. Kudos to Nurtas and Rustam who were pretty friendly and made such good company for the day. Overall good experience. Tips: Suggest to prepare at least 15k-20k kzt for food and others, and if you also want to use taxi or ride a horse (cash only!)

Very nice tour. The tour started early that beats the crowd of other tourist. Very nice tour guide as well. Easy to book and instamd confirmation.

Taras was a great company, who went above and beyond to make the trip memorable and suitable for us. We prefered a slightly more active day with some hiking and walking and he could recommend some good options for us. He knew the good spots around the areas. The transportation was smooth and comfortable. The day felt relaxed and not rushed.

this is a big join in tour but the guid is cery well organized, friendly. we are small amounts of foreigners a little challenging for the language barrier but the tour is very fun with locals

the organizer is on time, they communicate with us the timing, and all accordingly. They are well organized and very kind.

Covering Charyn Canyon, Kolsai, and Kaindy Lakes in a single day sounds ambitious, but Тәке managed the itinerary flawlessly. The transport was comfortable, the timing at each location was well-paced, and Тәке provided fantastic local insights throughout the journey. Highly recommended!

Amazing experience. Tour guide/driver was early and was very flexible throughout the tour. We could allocate more time into activities that we enjoyed more. Highly recommended! Psst it is a city tour but you will get to near the mountain tops to enjoy a very close up view of the glaciers at the peak like in the photo. Thank you so much!

we had a good trip with a nice and great photographer tour guide 👍🏼👍🏼

worth every penny. Lake Esik is such an underrated gem, wouldn't have been able to discover it had it not been for this tour. Not a lot of tourists, only locals were there when we visited. Number 1 lake in my opinion out of all around Almaty. The Huns Ethno village was such a highlight of this Almaty trip. Artem, our guide was so accommodating with all our questions and attentive to our needs. Spacious and clean car with English speaking guide.
