Astana excellent tour visit - It was an excellent and nice tour as have visited Astana with Nurmerey, the tour guide. We visited the Museum of the first president and it was a very interesting visit as Nurmerey has explained very well the history of his country. Then, we have visited and stopped in many interesting places - believe all touristic attractions and monuments of the city. We have also had an excellent lunch at the Paradise beautiful restaurant. I am recommending this tour to be taken with Nurmerey - as it was a very interesting tour and have learnt very much regarding Astana.

Booming Astana - This full day tour of this booming city certainly gave us a great feel for it! From the iconic buildings and the crisscross through the teeming traffic it was easy to feel the excitement and the possibility of the place. The view from the Blue Mosque minaret with all the cranes exemplified that. Our university student guide did too! And the first stop for some wine tasting was a nice way to get going!

Fantastic tour of Astana in a day! - From pick off to drop off, Timur was an amazing host and guide, and was very flexible with my schedule. Astana is a very big city, and it helps to have a driving tour if you're not familiar with the layout. From the history of the city, fun cultural stories, and general good banter, I really enjoyed this tour and would recommend to anyone that wants an efficient itinerary. I really enjoyed the authentic traditional lunch - best beshbermak I've had so far!

Great guide but Museums were closed on Mondays - Our guide Nurmerey was good company as he navigated us around Astana and he answered all our questions very thoughtfully. Lunch was included and he helpfully suggested some Kazakh specialties. Two things to note when booking: 1. It seems museums in Kazakhstan are often closed on Mondays - that was the day we booked for and it meant we could not access several of the buildings on the itinerary. 2. There is a charge for the wine tasting. The itinerary says that entry to the Arla wine venue is included, this is true but you still have to pay for the actual wine tasting. Overall it was a good experience and it helped us to decide which areas of the city we would visit again by ourselves the next day.
