Review of Astana’s four-hour Soviet architecture tour, with mosaics, old neighborhoods, expert guiding, private transport, and practical tips.

“This was one of the best tours I have ever done in the world in terms of depth of knowledge and personal anecdotes that really bring the city and the Kazak culture to life. The attention to detail was unsurpassed, and he continues to research new places other guides don’t know about with little surprises en route. You can tell this is a passion and I would strongly recommend you join any of his tours.. Superb!”
