Altyn-Emel: Aktau and Katutau Mountains in One Day

Went with a friend spontaneously, just wanted a change of scenery. The places are very beautiful, especially the red mountains. The guide suggested where it's better to stand for photos, the shots turned out great.

We went with friends on days off. The reason we chose this trip was the opportunity to see several natural sites in one day. The Aktau mountains are white-yellow, truly amazing. The red mountains in Katutau also made a special impression. The guide told interesting stories about the formation of the mountains along the way. We walked in the singing dune and listened to the 'song' of the sand. We had lunch in nature, drank tea, and relaxed. We liked everything, only in some places there was little time. We want to go again next time!

Vse ochen ponravilos, gory prosto kosmos. Aleksandr rasskazival interesno. rekomenduyu

We took it with friends spontaneously to unwind. Aktau looks like Mars, and Katutau is a completely different planet. Andrey suggested the best angles for photos, so the shots turned out cosmic. Very satisfied!

All good, the mountains are beautiful, guide Sergey is great

We saw two unique landscapes in one day. First Aktau — white-yellow rocks resembling a layer cake. Then Katutau — red clay remnants, like decorations for a fantasy film. Ilyas led the group, everything was clear: he told about geology and calculated the time so that we didn't rush anywhere. Lunch in nature was simple but tasty, especially tea in the fresh air. The singing dune is a separate pleasure: we climbed, listened to the sand, and slid down. The way back passed unnoticed. A great day, I recommend it to everyone who wants to see something unusual near Almaty.

The tour was okay, but the road was dusty. However, the views were unreal. Aleksandr did a great job.

Went with colleagues to unwind after a work week, and didn't regret a single minute. The guide Anzhelika is just fire, she told so many interesting things about the rocks and the dune! The sand on the dune really sings, it gives you goosebumps. I recommend it to everyone!

Went with my family, the kids really enjoyed it. Aktau and Katutau impressed with their colors, and the Singing Dune became a real adventure. The guide organized everything perfectly, thank you so much!

We went with the whole family because the kids love nature, especially mountains. The road was long, but the kids didn't get tired because the guide told interesting stories along the way. The colors of Aktau and Katutau mountains are amazing, the kids loved taking pictures. At the singing dune, the kids slid down the sand and were very happy. We had lunch in nature, had soup and tea, it was delicious. The guide's help was great, he explained everything to the kids. Only the day was hot, so I gave four stars. A great tour for a family vacation!

We took a spontaneous tour and didn't regret it. Aktau and Katutau were impressive. Andrey was our guide, very knowledgeable.

My daughter had long been asking to show her something unusual, and I chose this tour. We went together, I was a little worried about how she would handle the long drive, but everything went well. Aktau with its striped rocks made a huge impression on her, she was taking photos all the time. In Katutau we walked among the red clay remnants, and my daughter said she felt like she was in another world. The singing dune also didn't disappoint: we climbed to the top, listened to the sand 'singing', and even slid down the hill. The guide is very kind, told us everything and answered my daughter's questions. The only thing is, I would have liked a little more time at Aktau, so four stars. Overall the trip was excellent, my daughter still remembers it.
