EXCELLENT HALF DAY PRIVATE TOUR - EXCELLENT HALF DAY PRIVATE TOUR FOCUSING ON THE MUST SEE SIGHTS AND AVOIDING SHORTCUTS. ZHALGAS WAS A PATIENT AND INFORMATIVE TOUR GUIDE THAT GAVE THE NECESSARY DETAILS FOR EACH SIGHT. THERE WAS ENOUGH TIME ALLOCATED TO EACH ONE OF THEM EVEN THOUGH TRANSPORT BY CAR WAS ALWAYS NECESSARY. I WOULD RECOMMENG THIS TOUR EVEN THOUGH IT MAY SEEM SLIGHLTY OVERPRICED FOR ITS DURATION.

Best in Astana - Absolutely fantastic. Great guides, great drivers. Personalised sightseeing. You need anyway a car to get around Astana - it's best to do with someone who can give so much information about the city and the country. Very recommended.

Excellent Tours of Astana and Karlag with Kadyrbek - We had the pleasure of having Kadyrbek as our guide during our visit to Kazakhstan’s capital, Astana. We joined him for two tours: the Karlag Museum (Karlag Gulag Camp) and a city tour in Astana. From the very beginning, Kadyrbek made a strong impression. His English is excellent, reflecting his time as an exchange student in the United States, and he guided us with both knowledge and genuine curiosity. He not only shared detailed and nuanced insights about the places we visited but was also eager to hear about our perspectives and interests. This made our conversations along the way engaging and memorable, adding real depth to the experience. Both the Karlag tour and the city tour were excellent, and what stood out was his flexibility. He adjusted the tours to match our needs and preferences, making the days feel personalized and well-balanced. I would highly recommend booking Kadyrbek for any tour you have in mind. If possible, contact him directly to arrange your trip. Overall, we had an outstanding experience and give him our warmest recommendation.

“Perfect One-Day Tour of Astana!” - Had just one day in Astana, and it was incredible! Big thanks to Bauyrzhan from Astana Horizons for a smooth, informative, and enjoyable tour. We explored iconic spots like the Baiterek Tower and the breathtaking Nur-Sultan Grand Mosque, and concluded with a peaceful walk along the Ishim River. A special highlight was the authentic local lunch in the city, thoughtfully arranged by Astana Horizons — a great way to experience Kazakh flavors. The city’s mix of futuristic architecture and cultural depth surprised me. Highly recommend this tour if you're short on time but want a rich, local experience!
