- will see from above the highest mountain skating ring in the world and will speak of its history - will discuss the mud protection systems on the rivers near Almaty with the view of the first dam of this kind that saved the city in 1973 from a tremendous mud flow that was ready to ruin it. - if the weather is clear (and its often clear in Almaty) we will get panoramic view of the whole city and far away steppes that start right behind Almaty -Finely we will get to the altitude of 3200 m above the sea level and will admire the greatness of glaciers that seem to be at hand from the top point of the cable road. We will speak about the history of exploring of Tian-Shain and the peculiarities of this wonderful mountain chain. - Upon your wish we can have a cup of tea or other traditional drink in authentic yurta-café with the view of Talgar gorge or if you prefer European style, there are plenty of restaurants at the second stop of the cable road – Shymbulak ski resort

          The guide did not show up. Still waiting for a refund
          This is a scam. I paid 70$ and no one showed up in the meeting point. I was there for 30 minutes and no one came. Despite my multiple messages, calls and emails I wasn’t able to connect with the tour agency “TJ Travel”. I made the booking last minute but got confirmation that the tour was confirmed so there is no excuse. To this date I am still waiting for a response and at the very least a refund! If you don’t refund me ASAP I will place a dispute and will report it to TripAdvisor

          Excellent Experience with Maria
          Amazing city tour. Our guide, Maria, was fantastic and incredibly knowledgable about the city and also great fun. 10/10 would recommend.

          AMAZING
          Ok where to start. I had a trip booked for Sunday and because my flight was delayed I could not make it and they graciously put me on the Tuesday Trip. What can I say Maria collected me with a smile at my hotel. And once en-route the history and culture lesson began. Maria the guide was both so knowledgable and fun. From start to finish it was a pleasure. She also gave some great local tips to navigate the culture. The scenery in the park was breath-taking and of course the lovely guide also willing to take a photo when asked. Thank you Maria for such a fun, interesting and beautiful trip. Of course after this trip I begged for a city tour from her

          Great guide. Highly recommended.
          Spent a great day walking around Almaty with our guide, Maria. Apart from the history of the city, we were treated to a variety of sights in Almaty, from parks, to buildings, to monuments, the cathedral, the bazaar and of course the local sweet shop! Maria has has a warm and open personality, a great sense of humour, excellent English and a huge amount of information about the city. We had an absolutely fabulous day. Highly recommended.
