• one of the best tour guides ive met

  Mr. Erasyl is an excellent guide. he speaks fluent english and is very intelligent. it was a 6 hour roundtrip car ride and we had great conversations about a lot of things. he is very caring and always attended to our needs despite him being just a day after having his tooth extraction! so professional. doing a private tour is worth the money bec you can go at your own pace and make stops whenever necessary (for snacks and restroom breaks). The canyon is stunning. bring sunblock and some snacks bec it entails a lot of walking and climbing stairs. it was worth all the effort! the lakes are pretty to but i prefer the big almaty lake more. for me the best part is the canyons.. we even saw a wild fox. we enjoyed this trip as well as the conversations along the way. highly recommended!

  We were very fortunate to have Erasyl as our private guide in Almaty. From early morning pickup to our return to the hotel, he took excellent care of us with his professional approach and advanced English. Erasyl impressed us with his deep knowledge of Kazakhstan's history, science, business, culture, and even politics. He shared fascinating information throughout our journey while always being respectful and mindful of cultural boundaries during our conversations. Erasyl went above and beyond during our visits to Lake Kaindy and Lake Kolsay. When I struggled with walking in these areas, he provided helpful assistance that made me feel comfortable and supported. His hard work, helpful nature, and genuine care made our experience truly special. Erasyl is a wonderful ambassador for his beautiful country Kazakhstan, and we hope he continues to share his knowledge and passion with more visitors in the future.

  My girlfriend and I had a fantastic time. We highly recommend the private tour. It is a long day, however our guide was amazing. He was friendly, polite and extremely knowledgeable. All 3 sites are beautiful, and the private tour was perfect for taking the stress out of the day. If your in Almaty this is the best tour.

  Tour review This is a great option if you’re looking for a flexible and personalized tour/itinerary. My flight was delayed coming into Almaty and they were able to accommodate that by adjusting the start time of the tour. (I would never have made it if I’d done a group tour!) I most wanted to see Kaindy Lake and we were able to do that first, followed by a lunch break and Charyn Canyon. It was a bit of a long day but Erasyl made it fun with lots of facts about the destinations as well as Kazakh life and culture as we rode. I learned so much! Bonus - Erasyl was a great personal photographer. Overall, given my short time in Almaty, it was great to have this flexible option and have everything completely customized to your priorities. Highly recommend!

  Choosing this private tour was the best decision. Erasyl took me to three amazing destinations, and the transportation was incredibly comfortable, even in challenging locations. What I appreciated most was his flexibility; he was always willing to adjust the plan based on my needs. Our day was filled with great conversations about Kazakhstan's culture, business, and daily life, making the journey feel personal and engaging. He organized a fantastic horseback ride at Kolsay Lake and even turned out to be an excellent photographer, capturing some truly great memories. His professionalism and kindness shone through when I realized I had left my sunglasses in his car. He went above and beyond by finding them and dropping them off at my hotel's front desk. Erasyl is more than a guide—he's a true host and I can't recommend him enough.

  A long but excellent day/tour to see many interesting sights in the area. Was able to choose the pace and was given options for taxis if needed (vs only walking/hiking) at each stop. Also we stopped for lunch at a delicious local place that I was glad to have tried. Good tour for solo travels or those traveling in pairs or groups.
