Additional Information

The Charyn Canyon, a spectacular marvel found amid the branches of the Tian-Shan mountains, dates back to the Neogene epoch. This incredible natural wonder, often likened to the United States’ Grand Canyon, stands 200 kilometers from Almaty city. The Canyon’s ever-evolving terrain supports a diverse range of flora and fauna, including species listed in Kazakhstan’s Red Book. Notable features in the vast chasm include the Valley of Castles, the Ash and Turang Groves, and the Charyn River. The area hosts the Charyn Eco Park, where guests can experience a mini-zoo, off-road safari and quad-biking, a traditional Saka bath, and savor scrumptious meals at nearby eateries.

Great driver/guide - We had a great trip with an excellent local driver/guide who spoke English well. It was very nice to be able to talk to a local person and also learn about their daily life. It is a long drive to the Charyn Canyon but he made it entertaining, even with a song at the end!

I love Almaty - This was my second visit to Almaty. I did it only because of the excellent hospitality provided by them, especially Miras. He ensured clarity, punctuality, professionalism, safety and above all absolute enjoyment during our entire trips (both times). He tried his best to accommodate every wish and we will definitely visit Almaty again for sure

Viator is useless in almaty - Worst experience ever. The tour operator never responded. Our trip was canceled. They wasted our whole day in Almaty. Viator has to tie up with better tour operators in Almaty, the ones right not are unreliable.
