Itinéraire
La première destination est le lac Kaindy. Il se situe à environ 15 minutes du village de Saty, et le dernier tronçon se fait en véhicule tout-terrain.
La deuxième destination est le lac Kolsay. Il se trouve à environ 15 km du village de Saty et est accessible en voiture. Les lacs Kolsay sont l’une des merveilles naturelles du Kazakhstan, souvent appelés la « Suisse du Kazakhstan ». Ils sont situés sur le versant nord des montagnes Tian Shan, dans le sud-est du pays.
Le Moon Canyon, également appelé « Vallée de la Lune », est une autre merveille naturelle impressionnante située dans le canyon Charyn, dans la région d’Almaty au Kazakhstan. Il fait partie du parc national du canyon Charyn et est réputé pour son paysage unique et presque irréel. Le Moon Canyon est célèbre pour ses formations rocheuses spectaculaires, presque extraterrestres. Son nom provient de son apparence aride rappelant la surface lunaire, avec de hautes falaises, des pinacles et des sculptures naturelles façonnées par des millions d’années d’érosion du vent et de l’eau. Les visiteurs peuvent y pratiquer des activités telles que la randonnée et l’exploration des nombreux sentiers du canyon. C’est également un lieu très apprécié des photographes pour ses paysages dramatiques et pittoresques.
La quatrième destination est le canyon Charyn. Le trajet dure environ 2 heures et la visite dure environ 1 heure. Depuis le sommet du canyon, vous pourrez admirer des vues spectaculaires, puis descendre et marcher le long des sentiers pour observer des formations rocheuses ressemblant à des châteaux. Profitez des paysages impressionnants du canyon Charyn et de la « Vallée des Châteaux ». En cours de route, le chauffeur fera des arrêts au Black Canyon et au Moon Canyon.

Having read of trips cancelled at the last minute and a different booking of our own already fallen through, I was delighted to hear from Yernar the evening before our trip. He is naturally professional, friendly and very considerate. My husband and I are here on holiday but our son is here for a few months to improve his Russian. We booked a personal tour to get the maximum out of our time. As we travelled around in his car, Yernar was happy and able to share his knowledge for the tour. More than that.... it was all the other conversations throughout the day that enriched our trip with a deeper understanding. I appreciate learning about different cultures and lifestyles and Yernar was generous in sharing and exploring values and traditions. It is a long day and I was glad that Yernar was happy to point us in the right direction at two of the stops to give himself a break from the focus of the long drives. Don't let the idea of long drives put you off - we had great conversations and views (and some rest ourselves!) The real adventure part is getting to Kaindy Lake. it is not for the fainthearted but we absolutely loved it - the journey and the destination. Kaindy Lake has been at the top of my list in planning and I would go back in a heartbeat. We were always on the look out for wildlife and was glad to have our monocular with us to enjoy the eagles and the views. We had plenty of comfort stops throughout the day and our stop for dinner was a treat. The delicious food was beautifully presented. We're enjoyed our day and highly recommend this trip and wish Yernar and his family all the very best for the future.
Apart from the natural sights, both the driver and the guide had a polite and personalised approach and offered a lot of insights into local culture. I still remember the day we had our tour and it charges me with positive energy. 10/10
tour was excellent but the driver drove very dangerously and was very mean. No air conditioning in the car. I would not recommend this tour to anyone with this driver!!!
Dear Wojciech, Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We're glad to hear you enjoyed the tour, but we're very sorry to learn about your negative experience with the driver. Safety and comfort our top priorities, and we deeply regret that we fell short in providing that during your tour. We are taking your comments seriously and will be addressing the driver behaviour and the lack of air conditioning immediately. Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We hope to have the opportunity to make this right and to restore your faith in our services. Best regards Yernar Bossatbek Hello, Kazakhstan!
"Warning! @GetYourGuide Almaty, Kazakhstan is a scam! Booked 'Almaty: Charyn Canyon, Kolsay, and Kaindy Lakes Day Trip' for June 17, 2024, and got zero response from their provided number. Support was useless—Christina Botoctoy kept me waiting with no solution. Avoid this company at all costs! #scam #travelwoes"
Thanks to this amazing tour, we had a great time in Kazakhstan! We visited Kolsai Lake and Charyn Canyon which are stunning place to be. Lunch was included so we can enjoy local food in the villliage. The car was clean and comfortable, toilet break also available during the trip. Thanks to our excellent tour guide ,Yernar. He was friendly, helpful, responsible and speak fluent English. We really appreciate Yernar helped us took awesome aerial shots using his drone. It definitely captured our delightful memories in Almaty! After this great experience of day tour, we immediately decided to join another tour to Altyn-Emel National park next day. In fact, there is limited local tour option to Altyn-Emel National park online. I searched for long time before the trip but the price was not reasonable. Thank you so much for our tour guide to organise this tour in short time with reasonable price. We enjoyed a lot in singing dune. We highly recommend this tour to whom want to explore Kazakhstan.
All places are very beautiful. Yernar is such a good guide and driver, he gave me more information and invited me to talking along the way. We had short time for that day but he also well managed time so we arrived at Charyn canyon before sunset that so perfect time to be there.
Such an amazing experience, would recommend to anyone. The photos do not do it justice. we also did a quick horse ride for an extra 5000 tenge for the two of us. By far not the most expensive on the market but cannot imagine how you could get more for your money. Due to the private nature of the tour, we went at our own pace so we could enjoy everything to the fullest. Nurlan our guide/ driver was amazing. As two young girls, going for a full day out of phone service with a stranger is of course daunting but with Nurlan we felt so safe. The car we travelled in was also very comfortable which made a big difference. Also a quick note to say something we were concerned about before booking was that the day would feel like we were sat in the car for way too long. This was completely not the case. Due to the intensity of each spot, the drives in between were nice breaks and it really did not feel like we spent too long in the car. This was definitely helped by travelling by our own car as we were able to do much more in much less time. Overall, could not recommend enough, such a fabulous day. (btw lunch was a typical, basic Kazakh lunch (plov etc - no menu) so maybe bring your own food for lunch if you are a picky eater)
The day started at 6:30 exactly, being picked up with my guide's brand new car. Everytjinf was scheduled to perfection. The guide/driver was very knowledgable and passionate. I was given the option of first going to the canyon or to the lakes, but was advised that the canyon is better during sunset. We headed to the lakes, where we chose Kolsay first due to being able to reach it by our car, as for Kaindy we needed to wait for the UAZ (old soviet military transport sort of vehicle), since we really went through rough terrain. As for the canyon, we saw it from both up and down, and if you can deal with 22.000 steps per day up and down, I absolutely recommend it. The only downside for some is that my amazing guide doesn't speak much English, but with my basic Russian we had a great time together. If you're a bigger group it shouldn't be a problem at all (I was solo). Wholeheartedly recommend the tour!
Really fantastic tour. Yernur and his father know what they’re doing and given the private nature of the tour, get to experience it away from the large tourist buses and get to appreciate the scenery a lot more.
Guide Denis was perfect. The places were fantastic. This day was the highlight of our holidays. Denis made a lot of photos and videos for us. -> perfect
