Zhanara's Homestay

Used by Outfitter KZ but welcoming any guests, this friendly Kazakh lady and her hospitable family put up visitors in comfortable rooms and feeds them delicious traditional Kazakh food, including fresh river trout and homemade kumys (fermented mare's milk). There's no shower, but a traditional banya (public bath, 1000T) instead gets you squeaky clean. Get in touch via Instagram saty_saumal_kolsai.
