Отличная поездка по очень красивым местам. Выбрали эту компанию, т.к. Кирилл быстро, четко, профессионально отвечал на все вопросы. Комфортабельная машина и доброжелательный, внимательный, отзывчивый гид Михаил, который очень интересно рассказал про все места, которые мы посетили.
Будем рекомендовать SUVtours всем друзьям и знакомым!

Thanks to Kirill, Kazakhstan surprised me a lot. I did not expect that such a beautiful country has so stunning landscapes and terrain as good as in Iceland. Flower fields, mountains, canyons, lakes, local cuisines and all of it I managed to see within one day. Kirill is very knowledgeable guide, he showed me many secret spots to make nice photos where was no any tourist. Highly recommend to anyone who will visit Kazakhstan. Hope to come back again and explore it further.
