Our 5D4N all-inclusive tour was AMAZING and our group of 3 had a brilliant time. Our guide Yeldar was knowledgable, patient, accomodating and a safe driver too! From the moment he picked us up in Almaty city, every single day ended up fun and memorable. He shared stories, history, cultural anecdotes and more! He even tailored our adventures according to how fit (unfit!) we were! The accommodation in Saty and Basshy were great, and so were all the meals served. We highly recommend SUV Tours and definitely Yeldar as your guide.

My trip with SUV was absolutely perfect. Dmitri was amazing, guiding me to the best spots, helping me carrying my tripod. I often made him stop while driving to take pictures and he always happily obliged. I had such an amazing trip to Almaty all because of Dmitri and SUV tours. They kept my food restrictions in mind and arranged the tours as per my limitations on treking. I would recommend SUVtours to everyone looking to visit Almaty

The SUVTours team did an outstanding job of crafting an exciting and adventurous trip outside of Almaty during our recent trip to Kazakhstan. They worked with us to craft a trip that catered to our interests and provided us an insightful English speaking guide that worked with us to get the most out of our four days. I highly recommend this group if you’d like to get out of Almaty for a couple days and see what natural wonders Kazakhstan has to offer!
