    Spent a wonderful day visiting Charyn Canyon with my guide, Yelnar. He's a very ambitious young man. I enjoyed spending the day with him, learning about life in Kazakhstan and of course, seeing the canyon landscape on our hike. It's beautiful. I also really appreciated that Yelnar showed up on time and that the operator, Kazia Tours, addressed my very specific dietary lunch requirements, something most tour operators do not do. All in all, it was a great day.

    Very good option to go and visit Cheryn Canyon (which is a must in Kazakhstan) from Almaty if you have a bit more than half day at your disposal (say 8hrs). Guide spoke very good English and the restaurant for the lunch break is very good with good facilities.

    The views are amazing, you need to come early. If you come late in the evening there is no car service then you need to walk all the way down.

    While visiting Almaty, my son and I wanted to get out of the city and see some of the natural beauty of Kazakhstan. Our guide, Diyas, was great-- super friendly and personable. He made us feel completely at ease and was a great conversationalist. He explained the area and answered all of our questions. The river and canyon werev beautiful, and we enjoyed our hike. Lunch was at a local establishment along the road back to Almaty. The food was great, and we had a nice time eating with Diyas and our driver. If you want to see more of the area, this is the way to go. They picked us up and dropped us off at our hotel and the day was simple and stress-free. Highly recommend!
