5.00It was an amazing experience. Our guide Dias delivered a perfect experience. We visited Charyn Canyon, Black Canyon, had lunch in a very nice guest house, then hiked around the first Kolsai lake (~2h) and visited Kaindy lake the next day, also including a small hike (~1,5h). The trip included the transfer from and to Almaty and we were back in Almaty by 5pm. We can absolutely recommend Kazia Tour!!!!

5.00My family and I took this two-day tour, and we were amazed by its diversity. We got to see so much, including the Black Canyon, Red Canyon, and mpuntaines lakes. The timing was very well planned. We chose to stay overnight at a hotel with a lake view, it was worth it! The nature was stunning. We also visited a guest house and enjoyed the local cuisine. It was delicious and authentic. The homemade jam, bread, and tea will stay in our memories for a long time. Thank you to the entire team for organizing this tour for us. Our driver, Berik, was a very cheerful person, and the guide Gulzat was a knowledgeable professional. I highly recommend this company to everyone.
Impressed a lot from nature, beauty, from communicating with people close to you.

5.00It is with pleasure and confidence that we recommend this two day tour by Gulzat of Qasia Tour. We appreciated how well this brief tour was organized. It was great to see three famous, beautiful sites (with plenty of time at each) with an overnight stay included in the price. The tour prices with this operator are reasonable, fitting easily into our our budget. We received a great value for our money. For us part of traveling, is how well we enjoy the trip, not just the sites. Gulzat's cheerful personality and big smile made the ride enjoyable, allowing us to a chance to relax and have fun. The tour was comfortable and clean. The driver was friendly and polite. Gulzat makes pays attention to each guest on the tour making them feel special and welcome. Make sure you get a chance to get acquainted with her and have your photo taken by her and with her. Enjoy your trip. Thank you Gulzat! Edward & Linda (from USA living in Almaty)
