Dazzling Almaty

Dazzling Almaty

$499 per person

Kazakhstan, the ninth-largest country in the world, stands out as the most economically developed among the Central Asian ‘stans’, primarily due to its rich reserves of oil and other precious minerals. This wealth has significantly transformed the capital, Nur-Sultan, located on the expansive northern steppe, into a modern marvel characterized by striking futuristic architecture. Visitors to Almaty, the largest city, will discover an array of excellent dining options and accommodations nestled among its verdant streets. Almaty is also home to the elegant ALZhiR Museum-Memorial Complex, upscale shopping centers, and a vibrant nightlife scene. However, the most remarkable travel experiences await beyond the urban centers, whether it be trekking through the majestic Tian Shan mountains and lush valleys, observing wildlife on the picturesque steppe, enjoying warm hospitality in local guesthouses, or traversing the western deserts to explore secluded underground mosques.
