Expedition to Mangystau

The most iconic sights — canyons, plateaus, cliffs, and desert valleys. Maximum experiences in a short time, together with Kazakhstan’s best travel guides!

Six days through the mysterious places of Kazakhstan

Tour duration: 6 days and 5 nights
Discover Mangystau — a land of breathtaking landscapes in Western Kazakhstan. Expect canyons with lace-like cliffs, chalk plateaus, salt valleys, and even a hunt for ancient megalodon teeth. We’ll hike to Bozzhyra, explore underground mosques, and visit secret spots known only to locals.
We’re the only ones offering top-level comfort even in the wild: hot showers at camp, cozy tents with beds, bio-toilets, a furnished base tent, beanbags, chairs, device charging, internet access, and other small luxuries.

Perfect for lovers of eco-tourism and active travel. An English-speaking guide will share the history and spirit of Mangystau, and evenings by the fire will bring stories, music, and an atmosphere you’ll never forget.
