Agrotourism · Almaty Region · Since 2017
A family farm 91 km from Almaty, where golden eagles, horseback archers and tea with warm baursaks show you Kazakhstan the way nomads have always lived it.
Welcome to Taldy Farm
Taldy Farm began in 2017 with a simple idea: to keep the old ways of the steppe alive and share them with anyone ready to slow down. Today our 100 hectares hold an apiary and an apple orchard, horses, camels, sheep, a golden eagle and Kazakh tazy hounds. Our regional Zhamby Atu federation trains here — and every visit ends the way it should on the steppe: at a table, with tea.
Signature experience
An ancient nomad game: a rider at full gallop draws a bow and hits the target without slowing down. Our regional athletes perform for guests — and then the bow is yours, in an archery masterclass with patient coaches for complete beginners and steady hands alike.
Kazakh falconry
For centuries Kazakh berkutchi have raised golden eagles as partners in the hunt. Meet our eagle up close, watch a training session and take the photo you will keep for life — with the great bird resting on your glove.
Nomad hospitality
Step into a felt yurt dressed in hand-made textiles, sit down at a low table and let the samovar do its work. Over tea with fresh baursaks we share stories of nomadic life, help you into national costume for photos and answer every question you came with.
Life on the farm
Put on a veil, lift a frame heavy with honeycomb and taste honey straight from the hive. In late summer the orchard is full of apples — and of course there is jam.
Ride a horse, a two-humped Bactrian camel or a calm donkey. Our team stays by your side — the first step is always the hardest.
We breed the tazy, the ancient sighthound of the steppe — elegant, lightning-fast and surprisingly gentle with guests.
A generous Kazakh table: hearty home cooking, vegetables from the farm, our own honey and jam — and always more tea.

Quick stop
Half day
With lunch
Stay overnight · 2 days / 1 night
Stay when the day guests leave. The light turns golden over the yurts, dinner is cooked over the fire, and the night sky over the steppe is so full of stars you will forget to look at your phone.
Coming in 2027
We are preparing a retreat for women who are tired of noise and want to come back to themselves: daily yoga and breathwork, silence, the rhythm of nature and the quiet wisdom of Kazakh nomadic culture. Sana opens next season — join the waiting list to be the first to receive the dates.
Sunrise vinyasa, yin and yoga nidra to restore body and energy.
Digital detox, sound healing and slow walks with horses and camels.
Tea rituals, felt crafts, archery as meditation and evenings with the dombra.
