4-Day Intensive Tour

Begin your journey in the Valley of Balls (Torysh), where thousands of stone spheres lie scattered across the steppe like ancient marbles from a forgotten giant's game. These mysterious formations ignite curiosity and set the tone for the surreal world ahead.
Next, step into the Jurassic-era clays of Kok-kala, a layered canyon painted in rich reds and ochres — a living textbook of Earth's ancient past.
The trail leads you to Sherkala, the majestic lone mountain rising like a fortress out of the flatlands. Legends whisper that it once hid an entire city within its walls.
End the day in the Valley of Castles (Ayrakty), where natural stone spires mimic ancient citadels — nature’s own fortresses shaped by wind and eternity.

Wake up to the endless horizons of Tuzbair, where the upper viewpoint offers a dramatic, vertigo-inducing panorama over a white abyss. The play of shadow and sunlight across the salt flats makes the landscape feel almost lunar.
Descend into the Tuzbair Salt Marsh, a quiet, mirror-like expanse where the sky reflects in the shallow pools, blurring the line between heaven and earth. The stark beauty and silence leave an unforgettable imprint on the soul.

Enter the legendary Bozzhyra, where the Earth itself seems to dream. Start with the Mars Panorama, an unworldly viewpoint that looks like a Martian postcard — red rocks, endless ridges, and unearthly silence.
Then move to the Ridge Panorama, where the land falls away dramatically beneath your feet, revealing the raw, sculpted bones of the desert.
Climb to the Upper Plateau of the Fangs, where two iconic limestone towers pierce the sky like the fossilized teeth of some ancient beast.
Finally, explore the shadows beneath the ridge, discovering secret paths and wind-carved alcoves that feel hidden from time itself.

Begin the final day at Baysary Mountain, a quiet and contemplative peak rising above the vast steppe. Its soft contours and open horizons set a reflective tone for the journey’s finale.
Continue to Bokty Mountain, a striking flat-topped massif with steep slopes and bold natural stripes. One of Mangystau’s most photogenic landmarks, it feels almost sculpted by design rather than time.
Next comes Kyzylkup, affectionately known as “Tiramisu”. Its layered hills in shades of cream, ochre, and brown resemble a perfectly sliced dessert — a surreal and playful contrast to the surrounding desert.
Conclude the adventure in Aktau, the Caspian Sea city where the desert meets the coast and the journey gently returns to everyday life — enriched with landscapes that linger long after the road ends.
