Short and compact tour of key sites in Astana - Beq was a great friendly lovely tour guide! Very patient with our questions about Astana and also Almaty. He showed us the nur sultan mosque, hazrat sultan mosque, beyeterk tower, khan sheterq mall etc. Would recommend this 3-4 hour tour if you have very little time in Astana.

Excellent trip around Astana - A great tour of Astana with Kadyrbek who was very informative. We went to the amazing new mosque, key monuments and sights across the city and also to the Orthodox Cathedral, ending up with panoramic views from the observation tower - 4 hours went by very quickly. Kadyrbek’s knowledge was superb and his command of English just great.

Most Highly recommended tour and Tour guide! - This tour is great! He arrange my half day tour in my most convenient time and phase. Mr Kadyr is very conversant, good in English. History is one of his specialty, so he know what he is talking about, he shared a lot when we went to museums! I'm a coffee lover, so he granted my requests several times to pass by coffee shops! Very easy to talk to.

Excellent and very informative tour of Astana - After finishing the train journey on the Silk Road Train in Almaty, I followed up with a visit to the Kazakh capital Astana. I booked a Private Half Day Tour from Astana with Astana Horizons. My guide Kadyrbek picked me up from the hotel on time, vehicle clean and spacious. He speaks fluent English. The most important sights could be visited well with many photo stops. Kadyrbek was able to bring the cultural, architectural and historical features of the capital excellently closer and at the end of the tour I was driven back to the hotel. Absolutely worthwhile, a great experience, I can highly recommend this tour.
