- Saty - The journey leads to one of Kazakhstan’s most stunning locations – Lake Kolsai. This natural oasis is nestled among grand mountains and lush forests. Upon arrival, there will be an hour of free time to wander along the shores of the pristine lake, breathe in the fresh mountain air, and enjoy the tranquility, interrupted only by birdsong and the rustling leaves. The lake’s water is remarkable for its clarity and deep blue hue, mirroring the snow-capped peaks and the verdant spruce forests. Visitors can capture incredible photos that showcase the beauty of this extraordinary place. A walk along the picturesque trails offers a chance to fully embrace peace and harmony with nature. Lake Kolsai is a place to rejuvenate the spirit, feel connected to the magnificent mountain landscape, and savor a moment that will be cherished for a long time.
- Maly Canyon of River Charyn - Black Canyon
- Charyn Canyon - The journey continues to one of Kazakhstan’s most awe-inspiring natural wonders — Charyn Canyon. A brief stop (10-15 minutes) will be made en route near the enigmatic Black Canyon, which captivates with its somber yet intriguing landscapes. Here, visitors can enjoy the silence and capture stunning photos against the backdrop of contrasting rocks.
The main destination of the trip is Charyn Canyon, often referred to as the “younger brother” of the Grand Canyon. It amazes with its red rock formations, sculpted by wind and time into unique shapes. There will be 1-2 hours to leisurely explore the renowned Valley of Castles, admiring the majestic cliffs that resemble ancient fortresses. The canyon is particularly breathtaking on sunny days, when the sunlight dances on its walls, painting them in vibrant hues. This place offers unforgettable experiences and a sense of connection to the history of nature itself.

Great Company and Trip - Awesome day! It’s a long day but it’s perfectly paced so it never feels like you’re on the road for too long. The van was comfortable and air conditioned and our guide Assem (from the company Kazakhstan Very Nice!) was exceptional. Expect a rough ride in the Russian van to and from Kaindy from Saty - it’s part of the experience. Communication was absolutely A+. Highly recommend!

One amazing and adventurous trip to explore - This trip was beyond amazing! We had great experiences and discovered local culture.
We book our trip really last minute, and he didn’t had chance to find a guide and despite that we had amazing trip. I speak a little Russian but we managed to understand each other very well.
He was really considerate about us having good time. He took really really good photos from us, and believe me it’s har to find people who actually can take photos!
This trip wasn’t just trip where you go by car from one place to another, it was adventure! And it was amazing trip, like this is the kind of trip you enjoy talking to your friends and family what you experienced! This is definitely once in a lifetime time kind of trip and most of all it’s Worth it!
I have been different kind of trips all over the world, but this was the best one we ever had! You can see how local people live and just how everything comes together with them!
And what most important in many trips like this there are requirements for minimum participants. We were only two of us who participated for this trip and he still confirmed our booking and trip. It was amazing to have this experience just three of us and it was like private tour. Of course there were other people in those places but this trip was amazing to experience in small group.
So if you want to have amazing experience and trip that you will remember and have amazing memories and stories to tell, this trip is for you!
I highly recommend Kazakhstan_almaty_trip and we do not have nothing negative to say.
