Highlights

Singing Barkhan - Located in Altyn-Emel National Park, Singing dune is one of the most unique phenomena of nature. The area is referred to as the Singing Dunes on account of the rumbling sound emitted from the sand.
A light breeze gives a barely audible squeak, while strong gusts produce a more intense sound, similar to an organ.
In the Middle Ages, people who heard the singing of a dune, believed that it was the howling devil.

Best Experience of Ever changing landscape in pocket friendly cost! - Surreal experience for the Kazhak 4days spent with explore Kazakh tour company and BhaktiYaar Firstly i gotta give it to Khazakastan for its ever changing scenic beauty everywhere we went be it Charyn canyon for its 50m old carving by mother nature to naturally formed Kaindy lake to the singing dunes to the Kolsay lake 1 &2. We were efficiently driven to all these places, got the best veg food everywhere, ensured that we were super safe and what more he was a translator in places to understand the local culture.

I took a 3-day tour. The guide is very kind and professional! - I would especially recommend Lake Korsay. You can ride on a boat in the lake. Мне очень понравилось озеро Колсай. Там можно кататься на лодке.

Amazing trip around Almaty with fantastic Explore Kazakhstan team - As I worked at The Ritz-Carlton, Almaty I had an opportunity to meet lots of people from all over the world. One of them was Warren family, who came from Australia. They asked me if I can find tours in order to visit canyon and lakes around Almaty. I found ExploreKazakhstan and this trip was really AMAZING. The team is great, Madina knows lots of interesting information (even I was surprised even if I was born in Almaty and Kazakh, who studied history) and Askhat - driver is so supportive. The Warren family was grateful for this trip and I really want to thank the whole team. It was great! We enjoyed everything!
