Almaty is lucky to be one of the few cities in the world to have such unique and diverse surroundings as mountain ranges, sky peaks, coniferous forests, rough rivers, picturesque deserts, ancient canyons and many other natural wonders.
Big Almaty Lake is definetely one of the brightest sights among all of that. Its pristine water changing colour depending on the season, astonishing mountain peaks encircling the lake from all sides, thick ever-green forests make an unforgettable impression especially on the first time visitors.
Come and enjoy this primeval nature with us!

Prompt communication, on time pick up from the hotel, careful driving on the road and snowy/icy mountain hills, and very knowledgeable and pleasant guide and conversation by Nursultan. Nursultan speaks excellent English, is very kind and understanding. From the get go we felt very much welcomed. The trip was filled with interesting information about the areas that we were visiting as well as general information about living in Kazakhstan and its culture and people. We highly recommend this tour.

Wonderful guide, great drivers, beautiful landscape. Nursultan speaks very good English and is a kind and professional guide. Alex drove incredibly well on a road full of snow. The Big Almaty lake is amazing and the gorge tour was very nice.
