What our travelers sayСаяхатшылар не дейді

Great tour with Damir in such beautiful location and some out of tourist area

We had an amazing 5-day trip in Kazakhstan, and it honestly exceeded our expectations. Every day brought something new and beautiful, with incredible contrasts in the landscapes - from wide open plains to lush green mountains and dramatic rocky scenery. We visited some tourist areas, but we also discovered places that were almost empty of tourists, following paths well known to local people. That made the experience feel even more authentic and special. Staying in a yurt was a real highlight for us, such a unique and authentic experience. We also loved how the trip was not just visually stunning, but also full of fascinating explanations from Damir that made us want to learn more about the country, its history, and its culture. And a special mention for Damir, who was absolutely fantastic - passionate, knowledgeable, and always so pleasant. This trip left us with wonderful memories and a real desire to come back.

Outstanding Experience with OUTFITTER KZ and Vladislav

Our family has traveled extensively, and we can honestly say this was one of the most memorable trips we have ever taken. A huge thank you to Vladislav from OUTFITTER KZ for organizing and guiding us through an incredible journey across Kazakhstan. Every aspect of the trip was perfectly planned and executed. From the stunning landscapes of Bestube Valley, Tuzkol, Tekes Valley, Kolsay Lake, Kaindy Lake, and Charyn Canyon to the wonderful accommodations, delicious meals, picnics in nature, and unique yurt experience, everything exceeded our expectations. The itinerary was thoughtfully designed, allowing us to enjoy the beauty of Kazakhstan without ever feeling rushed. What truly made the difference was Vladislav himself. He was professional, knowledgeable, punctual, friendly, and always attentive to every detail. His passion for Kazakhstan and its nature, culture, and history made every day more meaningful and enjoyable. Traveling with family can sometimes be challenging, but Vladislav made the entire experience comfortable, seamless, and stress-free. The vehicles were comfortable, the accommodations were excellent, the food was wonderful, and every recommendation he made turned out to be perfect. We always felt safe, well looked after, and welcomed. Kazakhstan is a breathtaking country, and thanks to Vladislav, we were able to experience it in the best possible way. We highly recommend OUTFITTER KZ to anyone looking for an authentic, well-organized, and unforgettable adventure in Kazakhstan. Thank you, Vladislav, for creating memories that our family will cherish for a lifetime. We hope to return and explore more of this beautiful country with you in the future.

Fantastic 5 day tour!

I've just returned from this 5 day tour and thoroughly recommend it. The tour was very easy so organise via WhatsApp and Maria always promptly responded to my questions. It's the first time I've ever done a private tour with just myself and a guide/driver, but it was a great way to see some of the beautiful sites outside Almaty. My guide, Vlad, was so knowledgeable, organised and just a fun person to tour with. The local guesthouses were all comfortable, and were able to provide delicious vegetarian food. Winter is not a popular time to visit Kazakhstan and I wasn't sure what to expect, but everywhere we visited was accessible with Vlad's excellent driving skills. And the tour was well paced, with a mixture of national parks, cultural sightseeing and one long hike. Don't hesitate to book a tour with Nomad Outfitter KZ!

An unforgettable experience!

If you are looking for an unforgettable experience in the nature of Kazakhstan, look no further! I traveled to Kazakhstan at the end of October and I couldn't be more satisfied with the experience that Nomad outfitters provided us. We did the 5 day "Golden Ring of Zhetysu" tour and we loved it. Our guide Yeldar was amazing, always super attentive and helpful. Driving was always very safe. I recommend the experience 100%!

Golden Ring of Zhetysu

I went on a 5-days solo trip, the "Golden Ring of Zhetysu", covering the Altyn-Emel NP, the Charyn Canyon and the Kolsay Lakes. I am very confident to say that KZ Outfitter is the best choice you can take, it was an amazing trip, everything I wanted to see was well covered. Ramil has been an excellent guide and Azamat a fantastic organizer answering quickly to all questions. Thank you guys, hope to see you soon again for a new adventure. Alessandro.

Great tour and outstanding customer service

I reached out to Nomad outfitters and other tour agencies a couple of months before my trip to kazakhstan in late September and early October. No one had any group tours I could join! Only Natalya was kind enough to reach out to me again when there were group tours available. Natalya was extremely helpful, organized, detailed, and communicated all the necessary details. She ensured everything on our 5 day Golden Ring of Zhetysu was seamless and problem free. Our guide, Ramil was professional, super accommodating, patient, and helpful. He showed us things not on the typical tour route. Definitely recommend this agency!

Moderate. The longest walk is the trek to Mynzhylky Lake, about 8 km each way. The Singing Dune climb is short but steep. Other days have walks of 2 to 7 km.Орташа. Ең ұзақ серуен: Мыңжылқы көліне треккинг, бір бағытта шамамен 8 км. Әнші құмға шығу қысқа, бірақ тік. Қалған күндері серуендер 2 км-ден 7 км-ге дейін.
