History of the company:
We started our activity in 1989 in the mountains of the Central Tien Shan, where we were the first in the history of international tourism to conduct expeditions to Khan Tengri Peak and Pobeda Peak for groups of foreign climbers. At this initial stage of work, the company's team and management applied the experience of the famous Kazakh mountaineering school, as well as the practice of organizing expeditions and trekking in Nepal.
Having successfully mastered high-altitude expeditions, already in the early 90s, we expanded the range of tours we offer and began to conduct trekking, then heliskiing, mountain bike tours, ornithological, botanical and other programs. We ourselves studied the districts, made and tested the programs.
We were consulted and trained by experts from leading European outdoor companies. Over the years, we have organized a number of infotours, and dozens of the largest foreign agencies have become our partners for many years.
