About this trip

Oi-Qaragai Mountain Resort is a private day out from Almaty: your driver, who is also your guide, collects you from your hotel and brings you back the same evening. Already booked a hotel, or on a longer trip with us? Add it as a single day.

Just your group, no strangers, no fixed coach departure. Pick the date; a consultant confirms the timing.

Pace: A full day out, back in Almaty the same evening. Your consultant confirms the timings.

How group size changes the price

A private tour splits the vehicle, the guide and the driver across your group, so the per-person price falls as the group grows. These are live figures for this exact itinerary.

Calculating…

Weather, month by month

Average daytime high, night-time low and rain days for the places this trip actually goes, from five years of recorded observations. Not a forecast, and not the capital's weather standing in for the mountains.

Good to know

Visas
It depends on your passport: see visa rules for Kazakhstan, each linked to its government source. We will tell you what we know, but the requirement is yours to check against your own passport.
Best time to go
May–June and September. We run this trip outside those months too, prices and conditions change, so ask.
Getting there
We collect you from your hotel in Almaty and bring you back to it. Hotel and airport transfers are not part of a day tour.
Confirming
The price you see is real, but it is a quotation until a consultant checks guide and vehicle availability for your dates, normally within 24 hours.

Questions we get asked

Is this a group tour with other people?

No. Every trip on this site is private: your group, your vehicle, your guide, your dates. Nobody else joins you.

Can I join this to a longer trip?

Yes. Every day tour here is one of the days our multi-day trips are built from. A consultant can add it to your trip or build a trip around it.

Is the price per person or total?

Prices show per person for two travellers, with the total alongside. Solo travellers and larger groups price differently, the table above shows how.

When do I pay?

Nothing is taken through this website. A consultant confirms availability, sends a written quote with the payment schedule, and only then do you decide.

What if the weather closes a mountain road?

It happens, mostly outside the months above. We offer the nearest equivalent we can arrange and explain any difference in cost, either way.
