In September 2019 a friend and I traveled to Kazakstan for a one week visit to Nur-Sultan. After perusing out options online we choose Yerlan. Great decision! Yerlan turned out to be more than a guide, he became a friend and a vital resource for two Americans on their own running around Kazakstan. Yerlan spent two days with us. One driving to Burnaby National Park to explore the beautiful nature. The second day to visit the Eagle Hunter and his family to learn about Kazak culture and have an excellent horse meat dinner! Both great excursions and cherished memories for us. We loved our time driving and hanging out with Yerlan. He is extremely knowledgeable not only of Kazakstan but also of Russia and world events. We loved our time discussing the world from a perspective so different from ours! Yerlan is a great story teller with a great sense of humor! During six days on our own, Yerlan was ever present as he took care of our airport transfers, talked to our taxi drivers when they couldn\'t get us to our hotel, helped us replace broken eye glasses and answered questions we had during the week. He is dependable. I highly recommend Yerlan his English is great, and you will never forget him!
