Astana City Tour - The iconic Baiterek Tower, where panoramic views of the city set the tone for the day. Walking along Nurzhol Boulevard, we admired the futuristic skyline and vibrant public spaces that make Astana so unique. The visit to the Grand Mosque of Astana was a serene and awe-inspiring experience, showcasing the city's spiritual heart. Our guide made sure we had plenty of time for photo stops at architectural marvels like the Palace of Peace and Reconciliation, the majestic Hazret Sultan Mosque, and the symbolic Independence Square. A highlight was the National Museum, where we explored Kazakhstan’s rich history and culture through immersive exhibits. For lunch, we were treated to a delicious meal! We visited the elegant Assumption Orthodox Cathedral, browsed local goods at the bustling Green Bazaar, visited the ultra-modern Khan Shatyr Mall, a shopping and entertainment complex housed in a giant transparent tent. Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and flexible, tailoring the experience to our interests. This tour is a must for anyone wanting to see the best of Astana!

Astana City Tour - This is our last day of the tour. We explored the city, but I think it would be even better to visit at night to see the city lights. Nonetheless, I was amazed by the architecture and their creative approach to designing unique buildings. Sultan, our tour guide, shared very informative facts — including how Astana became the capital of Kazakhstan and the different names the city had before it was officially named Astana. Our 3-day trip was truly fun and memorable. I especially enjoyed the weather (I hope I can experience winter here someday, too!). Kudos to the Astana Horizons team! I look forward to seeing your team grow and to visiting Kazakhstan again soon! ❤️

A Great Tour of the City - Astana is a large city with some distance between the main sights and this tour handled the itinerary just perfectly. We had limited time in the city and wanted to make sure that we won’t miss something interesting and this tour accomplished just that. During the stop at the National Museum we got some interesting information about history of Kazakhstan and a good background for better understanding the country. The pace of the tour was adapted to what we wanted and it included a very nice lunch with traditional dishes. The tour included wine tasting with some truly unique wines, which was a nice finish to the day. Also the communication prior to the tour was handled quickly and professionally, so overall warmly recommended.

Fantastic day in Astana! - Fantastic tour with Kadyrbek! Very professional guide, knows the city inside out. The national museum was a surprise, enjoyed it a lot. We had a great lunch at an amazing restaurant with a very nice view of Astana, I had a chance to try horse milk kymyz and eat horse meat because I specifically asked to try it and Kadyrbek was happy to meet my needs. Overall, a great experience and I'm so happy I chose this tour as I had limited time in the city.

Highly recommended Kazakhstan day tour - Sultan and Kadyrbek are very knowledgeable and accommodating. The tour was well-organized and we didn't feel rushed, which allowed us to immerse and appreciate the history and culture of Kazakhstan. The lunch arranged was tasty and more than enough. Overall, a great experience. As the tour company name implies, it will certainly widen your horizon. Will definitely recommend this.
