You can even join in their morning feeding. Learn the basics of horsemanship and enjoy your first ride, exploring the tranquil surroundings along the Nura River.
Savor a traditional Kazakh lunch (in the yurt during summer, otherwise at the ranch), then visit the Kabanbai Batyr Mausoleum, where you’ll discover the life, history, and impact of this legendary Kazakh hero. Back at the ranch, relax with a sauna and a delicious traditional Kazakh dinner.
