Had a most sublime visit to the Singing Dunes and the Altyn Emel Park. Couldn’t experience the ‘singing’ bit tough! - I had a most amazing experience, all thanks to Gulzat accommodating my absolutely last minute request for a tour the following morning!
I got there around 1pm on a rather still day, so in the absence of any wind, I missed the ‘singing’ part of the dunes. But the overall experience of getting to the place, climbing up the Barakan dunes and then relishing the unbelievable quite and solitude around (plus great views) from that height was an unforgettable experience.
Qyuanish was the driver who took me to the dunes and I ended up spending some truly memorable moments that day with him, despite our language barriers. A big thank you to both him and Gulzat for everything!
