★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 7 reviews · 10 hours · from $50Best value

Explore Charyn Canyon from Almaty on a small-group day trip with a guide, Valley of Castles walk, local lunch, transport, and park entry.

“super good experience! Our guide Assem is a very nice girl, her service is caring and helpful. She is very warm person with quick response. Fluent English speaking. Pick up on time. But what stands out most is the meal!! I didn’t expect a group tour meal should be this high quality. We had lunch in a local farmhouse with farm meat. Simple but super delicious. The food quality there reminds me of how shitty industrial meat are! Three Canyons are all beautiful! I wish we could hike more for the second canyon. This tour is perfect for people who don’t want to have “military trip”. It’s more relaxing.”
