Welcome to Kazakhstan Birdtours
the company for exciting and tours of Kazakhstan. Kazakhstan has it all – birds, mammals, insects, flowers, fantastic scenery. Whatever your interest you'll find Kazakhstan an experience never to be forgotten, a place of outstanding natural beauty that never stops producing new surprises and delights.
If you want to see such hard-to-find species as Ibisbill, Relict Gull, Himalayan Snowcock, Sociable Lapwing, Eversmann's Dove, Black Lark, White-winged Lark and Himalayan Rubythroat, along with hordes of Rosy Starlings and many other mountain and steppe specialities, set in a scene of mountains, wild flowers and clean air, then Kazakhstan Birdtours is the company for you.
We can arrange tours of any length to this fabulous country, organizing flights, internal transfers, food, accomodation and, of course, guiding services to the best sites.
Kazakhstan is a land of deserts, steppe and mountains, with areas of woodland, marsh and lakes. All of these habitats are visited by Kazakhstan Birdtours on our trips around the country. For many pictures of the beautiful scenery and habitats of Kazakhstan see our sections on steppe, mountains, deserts and canyons and the Lake Alakol area.
