What previous customers have to say about Yelbossyn:
Absolutely great!
Our tour with Outfitter was absolutely great. We did the 2 day tour of Charyn Canyon and the lakes in a small group with Yelbosyn. It was a wonderful trip and although it cost more than we had wanted to spend, it was so worth it. We visited popular well-known spots and also amazing smaller places where we were the only visitors. They also provided vegetarian food for us.

Great experience with Outfitter on 3 day Charyn Canyon+Kolsoi Lake+Kaindy lake trip
When travelling to a country where English is not the primary language, you have no local contacts, and limited info, arranging out of city expeditions is always a concern. We got a great guide, Yelbossyn, who showed us around everything, was never rushed, has a lot of local knowledge, and went out of his way to ensure we had a great experience. It also helps that he knows how to use a DSLR well :)
The vehicle was in good condition, and his driving is very safe - both of which were critical factors for us. We did the 3 day Charyn Canyons + Kolsoi Lakes + Kaindy Lake trip. Overall everything was great.Shariq A
