The roads in the Altyn-Emel park are not paved, with bumps, the surface is like a washboard.
Vehicles designed for urban use, like sedans, crossovers and minivans, can be seriously damaged when driving on these roads, break down in the steppe, and may require costly repairs. Tourists visiting the park for the first time can get lost and fail to see the places they were going to, or spend more time on the trip than planned. Of course, sometimes it can be interesting to take part in unexpected adventures, but the natural conditions of the national park are quite harsh.
This is the reason why we use vehicles specially prepared for these roads.
Also, tourists who come from Almaty by their own cars are ususally tired of the road, and further driving through the national park becomes a real test of endurance.
Therefore, we suggest to trust our drivers and use a special transfer for the convenience and safety of tourists.
Arba Travel provides transfer service in the Altyn-Emel National Park from the village of Basshi.
For groups from 9 to 18 people, we use a comfortable Mitsubishi Fuso Rosa 4WD off-road bus with an equipped kitchenette for catering.
For individual trips and small groups of tourists up to 8 people, we provide transfer by Austrian Pinzgauer 4WD and 6WD vehicles and Ford 4WD minivan.
For trips with an overnight stay in the national park, we use KAMAZ Mustang 4WD campervan, Enisei and Svoboda caravans.
All the vehicles are based in the village of Basshi near the central office of the Altyn-Emel National Park.
We ask you to make booking at least 3-4 days prior to the planned date of your trip.
We invite tour organizers for cooperation in the Altyn-Emel National Park.
