Mangystau: Caspian and chalk canyons

In September the weather is comfortable, not hot. The jeep tour through the canyons is just what you need.

We had long wanted to see the chalk mountains, went with family in June. In June it's hot, but in tents it's fine. We liked it, especially the underground mosque.

In June it was hot, but we prepared in advance. We liked the tour, especially the jeep safari through the canyons. The tent camp is normal, everything necessary is there. The excursion to Beket-Ata was impressive.

I went with friends in June, Boszhira is amazing. Only at night in the tent there was no hot water, making tea was difficult.

In May we went with my wife, the guide gathered the group and explained everything. The weather was windy, but we were prepared. Overall we liked the trip: jeeps, canyons, overnight stays in tents. The underground mosque Beket-Ata was especially memorable. We got a bit tired from the transfers, but it was worth it.

We went with colleagues in October, wanted to close the season. The weather was cool but tolerable. The driver organized everything well, but at the camp there wasn't enough firewood for the bonfire. Overall we liked it. The chalk canyons and Mount Boszhira were especially memorable. The jeeps moved confidently over the off-road. Overnight stays in tents were comfortable despite the cold. The underground mosque Beket-Ata left a deep impression.

My s sestroy poehali v sentyabre, hoteli otmetit ee den rojdeniya. Vse ponravilos, no palatki byli nemnogo staruye.

My husband and I had long wanted to see Mangystau, and finally made it in September. We took the tour for five days to see everything without rushing. The weather was excellent — warm during the day, cool in the evening, but sleeping in tents was comfortable. Most memorable were the chalk canyons Tuzbair and Boszhir — the views are simply cosmic. The jeeps went confidently off-road, the drivers were experienced. Overnight stays in the field camp added atmosphere. The only thing I would have liked is a bit more time at some stops, but the program is packed, everything according to plan.

In June we went to Mangystau with Aleksandr. As a guide, he knows the route well, especially introduced the mosques of Boszhira and Tuzbair. The day was hot, but cool in the evening, you need to dress like in December. Aleksandr's advice was very useful.

We chose this tour spontaneously with my friend, wanted to celebrate her birthday. In May the weather was excellent, poppies were blooming. Five days flew by unnoticed.

In April, my brother and I went on a jeep tour, wanted to check out the new route. Ilyas as a guide told everything about the Beket-Ata mosque. The weather was cool, but sunny. At night in the tent it was cold, the sleeping bags didn't save us. But the views of Tuzbair were worth it.

We chose this tour looking for a vacation with kids. Mr. Andrey turned out to be a very experienced driver, he got us there safely. On the first day we met up in Aktau and reached the camp by jeeps. In the evening there was a safety briefing. On the second day we went to Tuzbair, pitched tents and explored the surroundings. In the main part we admired the chalk canyons and the scenic spots of Mount Boszhira. The beauty of nature amazed both the kids and us. On the last day we visited the underground mosque Beket-Ata and learned about its history. Organization-wise everything was good, only in some places there wasn't enough water.

The manager picked convenient dates for us in October, explained everything clearly about the booking. The weather was cool, but without rain. We really liked the underground mosque Beket-Ata and the canyons themselves. Sleeping in tents in October is already cool, but we were given warm sleeping bags. On the first day there was a meeting and a transfer, in the evening a briefing. On the second day we were taken to Tuzbair, walked around a bit. Then two days in the canyons and near Mount Boszhira. Overall the organization was good, but at the camp there wasn't enough water for washing.

In April in Mangystau it's already warm during the day but the nights are cold, take warm clothes. The chalk canyons were impressive.
