From Ölgii,
with twenty years
of mountain knowledge.

I spent years working as a guide for other tour companies — leading treks across the Altai, translating for eagle hunter families, driving travelers through passes that don't appear on any map. I loved the work, but I saw how much got lost in the middle.

In 2019 I started Altai Mount Travel so I could do things my way: smaller groups, honest itineraries, and real connections with the families and landscapes I'd spent years getting to know. No middlemen, no upselling, no shortcuts.

Every trip I run now is the trip I always wished I could offer.

"I've guided hundreds of people through these mountains. I started my own company to do it the right way."

Why travelers choose us

Born in the Altai

Real access

Our relationships with eagle hunter families, nomadic herders, and local guides took years to build. You travel with people who trust us.

Small & personal

We keep groups to 2–8 people. No megabus tours, no rushing. Every trip is shaped around you.

Locally driven

Every dollar you spend supports Ölgii drivers, host families, local cooks, and the wider community. Tourism done right.
