4-Day Tour to Ustyurt Plateau: Boszhira, Tuzbair & Bokty

The Ustyurt Plateau is one of the most pristine and well-protected nature reserves on the planet, largely thanks to its rugged, infrastructure-free terrain that demands a serious off-road journey. Spanning 200,000 square kilometers across Western Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, this vast clay and stony desert is a geological marvel so massive that, much like the Great Barrier Reef, it is clearly visible from space. It’s a rare destination for those who seek true isolation and raw, untouched beauty

We booked a 5 day tour with Gaukhar from Friendly Tours to visit many of the natural wonders around Almaty: Altyn Emel NP, Charyn Canyon, Kolsai lakes and Käindy lake. The tour turned out great! Gaukhar did a tremendous job going the extra mile to meet us a day earlier in Almaty and walk us around the (really nice) town and had everything arranged, from a 4WD van with driver to packed lunches and good accomodation. All in all we saw all we wanted to see and then some, and it was more like traveling with a bunch of friends than an organized tour. The nature and unique, peculiar sites of south east Kazakhstan were amazing. Highly recommended!
