Kok Tobe Hill is very nice place to visit in Almaty. It is only 5 minutes by car from city center. We went with gondola cableway and the view was amazing! You can see whole city from up there. The ride is short but very fun. On the top, there are many things to do. Some small cafes where you can sit and drink tea or coffee and enjoy the mountain air. It is very peaceful and beautiful. We took many photos. If you travel with children, it is also good place. There are many activities for kids like small amusement park, mini zoo, and playground. Kok Tobe is good place for relax, fun, and see nice view of Almaty. I really recommend to go if you are visiting the city.

Really brilliant ride and super helpful staff. Outstanding. You won’t ever get better service anywhere — simply the best! They made peanut butter for my breakfast because I asked if they had it. Brilliant, brilliant help with hire cars, drivers, tours, trains, flights — cleaning luggage, sights of the city and best restaurants. Lovely pool, spa and shopping, fantastic city walks —- all in the city of apples. Great food everywhere. Go on the aerial car located next to the Novotel hotel (get a discount voucher from reception if you are a guest). Great theme park, zoo and cafes and restaurants at the top!

I visited the Kok Tobe mountains in February 2024 during a snowfall. The one-way tickets for the gondola cable car are 3000 tenge, and a round trip costs 5000 tenge. The visit was definitely worth it, with stunning views of Almaty from the top. There's a giant Ferris wheel at the summit for an additional fee. You can also find shops for shopping and a fast coaster that lets you slide down to the city, though it was under maintenance during my visit. Overall, Kok Tobe is a must-see destination in Almaty.

Basic view looking back over the flat smoggy landscape. The mountains on the way up offer the best view. The view on top to the south (mountains) is hidden behind high tin walls. Mainly a theme park of low quality attractions. The restaurant entrance has best mountain views. Prices in restaurant 3 times those in Almaty. Not worth the 5000 T return. The cable car broke down so don't do it if you are in a tight schedule.

Nice view point to see Almaty from above, you can reach it by a cable car. You can also view Almaty TV Tower from up close. There are cafes and souvenir shops available around the area. Lots of games and attractions available but it's mostly will be interesting for kids. I visited this place as part of a tour program, otherwise I would never consider visiting as it's just not interesting for me.

Do not fall for scammers in gondola cable way. We were scammed by guys who took our pictures with eagle and costume. They said that it was 2000 tenge for free 1 picture, but in the end, they would let you buy the 100+ pictures. If you will not buy it, they would not give the 1 free picture for the 2000 paid tenge. We paid 100 USD for those pictures. Please do not fall for these guys.
