We arrived in Almaty to participate in an international conference devoted to the study of camels. After a very fruitful exchange of experience with scientists from different countries, we took a trip to the natural parks around Almaty. We are experienced travelers and work in different countries, have seen many national parks on different continents. With admiration, we could observe landscapes of different countries in one region. In Konstantin’s roomy SUV, we climbed snowy mountains, visited desert mountains, canyons and mountain plateaus. All this time, our guide took care of our food and accommodation at the campsite. We communicated with local shepherds and spent the night in amazingly picturesque places. We became very close friends with our guide during the trip and are happy to recommend him to all lovers of wild nature and real travel.
