3.00We did see Shimbaluk and Medeu and Kok Tobe. The lifts to the mountains provided stunning views. But the driver was basically only a driver- an hour late; not prepared with tickets for Kok Tobe so we had to wait while he picked up the tickets. And unlike our other tours he didn’t give us any information.
To the mountains and beyond

5.00Treeple– Almaty, Kazakhstan I had a wonderful experience with Treeple during my recent visit to Almaty. They arranged one day tour for me, and everything was handled very smoothly and professionally. A special mention to our local guide, Mr. Didar, who was absolutely fantastic — knowledgeable, friendly, and extremely helpful throughout. The entire trip was well-organized, comfortable, and enjoyable. I highly recommend Treeple to anyone planning to explore Almaty and its beautiful surroundings!
