What you can expect

  • This tour is the perfect escape from the city for travellers who want to experience the beauty of the Kazakh mountains without spending the entire day on the road. Join a premium small group of no more than 4 guests and travel in comfort aboard an air-conditioned car or 4×4 SUV while discovering some of the most scenic landscapes in Ile-Alatau National Park.

    Your adventure takes you to the picturesque Alma-Arasan Gorge, where you'll enjoy fresh mountain air, crystal-clear rivers, towering pine forests, and spectacular alpine scenery. Follow scenic trails through the gorge and visit the area's famous natural hot springs, where you can relax and enjoy the peaceful surroundings.

    The journey continues to the Ayusai Visitor Centre, the gateway to one of the park's most beautiful hiking areas. From here, enjoy an easy-to-moderate walk to the charming Ayusai Waterfall, passing through forests, mountain streams, and breathtaking viewpoints along the way. There will be plenty of time to take photos, enjoy nature, and explore at a relaxed pace.

    Unlike large bus tours, this experience focuses on comfort, flexibility, and a personal approach. With only four guests, your guide can adapt the pace of the tour, provide individual attention, and ensure you have enough time to truly enjoy every stop.

    Whether you're visiting Almaty for a few days or simply looking for a refreshing day in nature, this tour offers the perfect combination of mountain scenery, light hiking, relaxation, and unforgettable views—all within a short drive from the city.
