Medeu and Shymbulak: Top 15 Trips from Almaty

17 tours

Twenty minutes above the city there is an Olympic-size ice rink at 1,700 metres, and above that a cable car climbing to a ski resort at 3,200. Almost every trip does both, which is why the 15 below are compared on what else they include: the Kok Tobe stop, the skate hire, the lift pass, and how long you actually get at the top.

But the driver was basically only a driver- an hour late; not prepared with tickets for Kok Tobe so we had to wait while he picked up the tickets. And unlike our other tours he didn’t give us any information.”
