Excellent tour guide and events organizer - Gulzat is an excellent guide and a great travel companion. Very friendly, communicative, with a great command of English and Russian, with profound knowledge of culture and history. She was very helpful to organize a traditional dinner with folk music for our group of 30 people. Excellent service! Very professional in her business conduct. I recommend her services without any hesitations. Dear Gulzat, it was my pleasure to meet you and I hope our paths are going to cross again. Thank you!

A lovely introduction to Kazakh food and culture - We booked a walking tour with Gulzat for the start of our 10-day holiday in Kazakhstan and it was a great call. Gulzat showed us a lot of Almaty's history as we walked through the beautiful park, helped us buy various items to try at the Green Bazaar, and introduced us to so many delicious Kazakh dishes over a bountiful lunch. Thanks Gulzat for setting us up for a great trip in your gorgeous country!

Must do to get a sense of what the authentic kazak dishes are, and to get an insight into history of kazak from an exper - This was the first activity we did on our kazhaksthan trip, and Gulzar our guide, made us feel at home. She took us on a walking tour around the city in and around the panfilov street while telling us about the history of the place. After lots of walking more than an hour or two, we had a great kazak lunch with all the authentic local dishes. A nice way to start our trip.
