Authentic Kazakhstan: A Guided Walk Through Basshi Village

Basshi is more than just a gateway to the national park; it is the living history of the Great Steppe. Reading about it online is one thing, but experiencing the vibrant atmosphere of the Kazakh heartland firsthand is another. Step behind the gates of local workshops and touch the centuries-old traditions of nomadic life.

Join our curated tour to explore the most fascinating local sights in just 1.5–2 hours:
