Kolsai, Kaindy Lakes och Charyn Canyon Small-Group Tour

It was amazing. Thank you for journey.

Really liked the trip. The nature is really amazing and Batyr was very friendly and helpful. The tour was very well organized, highly recommend it.

I had an absolutely amazing experience with Kazakhstan Very Nice! The trip to Kolsai Lake, Kaindy Lake, and Charyn Canyon was one of the highlights of my journey in Kazakhstan. Everything was very well organized, the landscapes were simply breathtaking, and the whole experience was full of unforgettable moments. Kazakhstan is already an incredible country, but this tour made me appreciate its natural beauty even more. We also spent the night in a guesthouse in Saty Village, which was very clean, comfortable, and welcoming. After a full day of exploring, it was the perfect place to relax and recharge before continuing the adventure. A very special thank you goes to our guide, Assem. She was incredibly kind, sweet, patient, and always smiling. She made everyone feel welcome, happily answered every question, explained the places we visited, and made sure everyone had a wonderful experience. Her positive attitude and genuine kindness made this trip even more memorable. If you're visiting Kazakhstan, I highly recommend booking a tour with Kazakhstan Very Nice. Professional organization, breathtaking locations, comfortable accommodation, and wonderful people. I would definitely choose them again! Thank you, Assem, for making this experience so special! ❤️

We had an amazing one-day tour to the lakes and canyons in Kazakhstan, and I highly recommend it! Our guide, Didi, was exceptional. She shared exactly the right amount of information—always interesting, relevant, and never overwhelming. She has a wonderful sense of humor that came naturally, without trying too hard to entertain the group, which made the atmosphere relaxed and enjoyable throughout the day. The whole tour was perfectly organized, and everything ran smoothly. One of the highlights was having lunch in a local family’s home. It was such a great idea, giving us a more authentic experience, and the food was absolutely delicious. Considering everything that was included, the price was excellent value for money. I would recommend this tour without hesitation!

Guide is really nice, weather was fine. I did love this trip. Suncream needed. It is a long trip so bring some snacks and water 가이드분도 정말 친절했고 날씨도 좋았어요. 이번 여행 정말 만족스러웠습니다. 선크림는 필수! 이동 중에 먼지가 많이 날릴 수 있으니 마스크를 꼭 착용하세요! 여행 시간이 길기 때문에 간식과 물도 챙겨셔야함

I have great experience for the whole day with this trip. Assem the tour guide during my trip is knowledgeable and friendly, i just really want to repeat this trip again in future and will definitely choose this to package to experience again.

Mukhtar is a really knowledgeable guide and told us lots of information about each place, I even did more research at home and struggled to find out more!! I learned a lot which is the most important for me. The food at the guesthouse was delicious toilets available at each location (100 tenge,150 or 200. Or free in the tea rooms / visitor centre at the valley of the castles. Make sure you have toilet paper extra!! had enough time at each place to really take everything in, I have never been to such places before it was incredible!! My favourite was definitely the Valley of the Castles - it doesn't look real!! the early start isn't for everyone so make sure you feel happy doing it 😄 I am used to it and you can sleep between places if you need to. bring a raincoat and good shoes, overall I recorded about 2 or 3 km walk at each place, with some steep uphill, so again feel prepared 😊 Overall very enjoyable experience and great talking to people when everyone was awake 😆😉 the group size is perfect.

My first tour with Viator and in Kazaksthan and its great! The communication was good, the guide is really good. Making sure we are comfortable and safe. Chatting with everyone of us along the way. Sharing alot of stories and history. Didnt know there was so much hiking but the information before the tour had me prepared for the walks, cold and rain. Visited really beautiful place that i wont be able to alone. The lunch was a good everyone was so hungry after a cold wet morning walk. It was raining but hiking in the rain is also a very fun experience. Really enjoyed the day.

Great job by guide and managers who helped us a lot and accompany us during tour

One-day tour to Kolsay, Kaindy and Charyn Canyon organized by Kazakhstan, Very Nice! and lead by Zhandos was a very high quality experience and definitely exceeded my expectations. I do appreciate the effort put by our motivated, knowledgeable and passionated guide, Zhandos, and our brave and experienced driver who covered by bus safely about 600 km into making the tour an unforgettable adventure for all its participants. The tour commenced at 5:00 and finished at 23:00, therefore there is no doubt that their outstanding work and organizational skills deserve a special recognition, and were essential in making this 18-hour activity so successful. There was enough time to explore each of the tour highlights without any rush, admire breathtaking beauty of the visited places, learn about their geology and history, and take photos. Zhandos is very good at taking pictures and always happy to capture unique moments and sceneries for your memories. Hotel pick-up was provided. Communication with the organizer via WhatsApp was very good. Depending on individual physical condition and preferences, participants were given a choice to access Kaindy Lake walking, riding a horse or by taxi, and taking a scenic route suitable to their hiking skills level exploring Charyn Canyon. The crazy ride by a historic UAZ bus to the Kaindy Lake car park was one of its kind adventure and made the tour even more memorable! I liked that highlight a lot. A delicious home made lunch rich in local dishes and products was the best possible break to relax and get more energy before exploring Charyn Canyon. I highly recommend the tour to everyone who would like to visit several not easily accessible and remote natural wonders during one day, in small group and at an excellent price.
