Product reviews: Altyn Emel. Singing dune. 1 day tour
Guest User2025-04-06
This was an amazing trip for us.
Firstly, let me brief through the trip.
We were picked up from our hotel at the specified time. And then we started the trip to the Altyn Emel national park.
We had a couple of stops in between to, freshen up and have a small breakfast.
We took a small break at the Basshi village from where we took the permit and then we went off into the park.
It was like being in a set of cowboy movies. Desert kind of vegetation all around us and we could see a smokey layer above the desert plains.
We have never seen such a place, where you could see a rocky-desert region having a snowy mountain in the background. It was such a magnificent scenery.
When we arrived at the dune, it looked like a majestic little hill standing proud of itself. We scaled the dune as much as we could, before getting a bit exhausted and then came down from there. We probably took a thousand pictures of us and the scenery.
Unfortunately, we couldn't hear the singing as the conditions were not in our favor. Also, we missed the tulips as it was not the season yet.
While returning, we saw some rare sightings of the deers (we were told that we were extremely lucky to have spotted them as these sightings are incredibly rare) and also saw some camels.
We had our lunch at a local family's home. And my god, it was such a wonderful experience. We finally experienced, how legendary Kazakh hospitality is which we kept hearing about so much. The food they served were the best food that we had during our Kazakhstan trip. It was fresh, hot and so delicious.
Finally, on our journey back we were dropped at out hotel in the evening.
Now, coming to the host and the travel agency.
Out guide for the day was Lana. However, I must say, not for a single moment we felt like were out with a guide but rather a dear friend.
We had such lively and fun interactions with her throughout the trip. She is an extremely knowledgeable guide, she kept providing interesting info about places and its history and people. We learnt a lot from her about the Kazakhs and this beautiful country.
My wife shared a strong bond with Lana throughout this trip. They shared, all kinds of shopping info and Lana provided such invaluable tips and tricks to her.
The trip although was long, we never felt any dull moment, and its all thanks to Lana.
Regarding our driver, he was very polite and drove wonderfully. Our driver also offered to provide a drone shot from our small dune trek. We didn't avail it, but people interested in it must not miss it.
The agency made a great itinerary, we were comfortable with it.
Below are my final ratings,
Singing Dune - 4.5/5 (not the full marks because unfortunately, we couldn't hear it sing)
Operator and its itinerary - 5/5
Host - 5/5
Driver - 5/5
Vehicle - 5/5
Thank you so much, Lana and the Kazia tour team for such a wonderful trip.★

Product reviews: Kolsai, Kaindy Lakes and Charyn Canyon Small-Group Tour
Guest User2025-08-28
Itinerary was well planned, and visit Charyn Canyon, Black Canyon, Kaindy Lake and Kolsai Lake. Homemade lunch provided at a guest house. Guide was super friendly and can converse in english. If you have motion sickness, not recommended as the journey is bumpy and long hours. Bring cash for horse ride (optional), highly recommended. For me, it is worth booking this tour again!★

Product reviews: Experience the Nomadic Lifestyle at 'The Huns' Ethno-village
Guest User2025-01-19
The trip was amazing!!! Tour guide was on time , very helpful and a fun person who made the tour 100x excellent. Its cheaper than other tour, but the service was perfect. He made sure we had great time, bought us chocolate. Told us to join in the activities which made it hard to forget. It worth it, he took care of us and lets us have fun while ensure we got to dance/cook/ride horses as well. The tour took only half day which was the best since we came down from 3days in shymbulak and so tired already and wanted a free and easy day for nomadic tour. So choosing this tour with him made the trip wholesome and fun. Never regret. Pls choose this. Worth every single cents!!★
