Catalog of guest houses of Kazakhstan

HOSPITABLE HOSTS ARE WAITING FOR YOU HERE!

In this catalogue we offer you our ecological sights, those villages, in which people host according to the concept of rural ecotourism. Our guest houses are chosen the way that there is beautiful nature and interesting places around; so that there was a traditional rural life and hospitable hosts, who will make sure that you feel comfortable. All other necessary information, presented in simple tables, can be found further on this page.

Life in villages of Kazakhstan is very simple, and therein lies its charm. You won’t find unnecessary luxury in our houses. In some places toilets are located in the street, instead of a hot shower there is good-quality country bath; this is due to the fact that in many villages there is still no water supply and drainage systems.

Prices in guest houses are affordable for townspeople. Payment for accommodation, escort services and food are usually made on sites to hosts or local coordinators. Money that you spend on vacation remains in the village and contribute to the development of rural community.

Our kindly request to all guests: treat nature with respect. Take care of animals, do not make fire and do not leave garbage, so that other guests after you felt good in these wonderful places.

WE WISH YOU AN UNFORGETTABLE HOLIDAY!
