点评:Our local driver Abdullah (+77089651831) who fetched us from Almaty Airport offer to take us sightseeing to the Big Almaty Lake on 8 September 2025 at 9am. His rate is $100 to chauffeur us from Ramada by Wyndham to Big Almaty Lake. Upon arriving at the Park, it turns out a section of the road from the Park to the Lake is closed.
He said we either have to climb 10km on an electric bike or on foot as no cars are allowed from the barrier to the Lake. But he said he can arrange a car for 50000 tenge ($93) to take us after 1 km walk to the the car pick up area. We notice many tourists at the Electric Bike Centre renting the electric bike for ride to the Lake. Finally, we decided to take the car. Thus, while Abdullah was arranging on the car, we walk around the park and took our lunch at the park Cafe.
After 1 km walk, the 15 mins car ride up is like never ending as Big Almaty Lake on the top of the mountains at an altitude of 2500 meters.
The Big Almaty Lake has a unique nature with striking blue waters, with mountain backdrop and landscape. It has a notice board to inform that this Lake is a major source of drinking water for the Almaty region, swimming or walking near the lake is prohibited. The Lake is under total video surveillance too!!! We spend about 30mins at the Lake
Although the lake is beautiful, it does not deserve to walk 1 km from the park Center to the pickup area for a ride to arrive at the Lake area. Moreover, we had to call for a taxi to take us down to the Park Center. Lucky for us, a tourist couple just arrivedin a taxi, and the taxi driver was willing to take us down asking for 3000 tenge!!!! or $93.00 !!!
It is a very unpleasant trip to Big Almaty Lake , we felt we have been scammed by the local Driver Abdullah (+77089651831) with car Vellfire Plate 529AUW05!!!
翻译:我们的当地司机阿卜杜拉(Abdullah,+77089651831)从阿拉木图机场接我们,他提议在2025年9月8日上午9点带我们去大阿拉木图湖观光。他收费100美元,从温德姆华美达酒店(Ramada by Wyndham)开车送我们到大阿拉木图湖。到达公园后,我们发现从公园到湖边的一段路封闭了。
他说我们要么骑电动自行车爬10公里,要么步行,因为从湖边的护栏到湖边是禁止汽车通行的。但他说他可以安排一辆汽车,价格为50000坚戈(93美元),步行1公里后送我们到汽车接送区。我们注意到电动自行车中心有很多游客租电动自行车去湖边。最后,我们决定开车。于是,阿卜杜拉安排汽车的时候,我们在公园里散步,并在公园咖啡馆吃了午饭。
步行1公里后,15分钟的车程就像永无止境的旅程一样,就像在海拔2500米的山顶上看到大阿拉木图湖一样。
大阿拉木图湖拥有独特的自然风光,湖水湛蓝,山峦起伏,景色宜人。湖边有一块告示牌,告知我们该湖是阿拉木图地区的主要饮用水源,禁止在湖边游泳或散步。湖边也处于全程视频监控之下!!!我们在湖边待了大约30分钟。
虽然湖景很美,但它不值得我们从公园中心步行1公里到接送点再搭车到达湖区。而且,我们不得不叫了一辆出租车才能下到公园中心。幸运的是,一对游客夫妇刚好打车过来,司机愿意载我们下去,车费是3000坚戈!或者说93美元!!!
这是一次非常不愉快的大阿拉木图湖之旅,我们觉得我们被当地司机 Abdullah (+77089651831) 骗了,他的车是 Vellfire 车牌 529AUW05!!!
