ABOUT THE TOUR
Explogio Travel offers one-day tours from Almaty, multi-day private tours, custom programs, and SUV jeep tours across Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan. Our itineraries include excursions from Almaty, trips to mountain lakes, canyons, gorges, waterfalls, and plateaus. We organize private tours from Almaty, SUV tours, jeep tours, visits to Charyn Canyon, Kolsai, Kaindy, and Issyk Lakes, as well as tours around the Almaty region and unique routes in Kyrgyzstan.
The one-day journey begins in Almaty and takes you to two remarkable locations. First — Moon Canyon, whose whimsical rock formations resemble Martian landscapes. Walking through these stone labyrinths gives the feeling of being on another planet. Next, the route leads to Bestobe — a place with open spaces and panoramic views, where you can enjoy the tranquility and beauty of nature. Lunch with a view of Bestobe is the perfect way to end a full day before returning to the city.
