Wonderful and very informative!! Some queries : 1) These Lakes and Canyon Trips from Almaty include lot of hiking/walking? or there is an alternative option to reach in front? Because I need to carry a 3 yrs old with me. 2) When and where I can see both snow and fall colour in KZ? What is the best time to visit? some snow will be great for my kid 3) I want to Visit Tamgaly Petroglyphs, Taraz, Aksu-Zhabagly Nature Reserve, Turkistan - what are the options how we can travel to these places from Almaty? 4) Is there any Direct and cheap flight to India from Turkistan Airport / Shymkent International Airport ? 5) How to book flight and trains from India which has Tenge only pay option? An other contact no related to stay or car drive will be helpful
1. Not really, it’s not much. For the lakes, you can reach pretty close by with car, buses or their own local options. Kolsai 2 can be done on horses. The canyon is either a walk or an open bus. It’s all doable. 2. You can do that in Almaty itself. There is medeu which is a year round ice arena. The best time to visit is during June to September when the weather is pleasant. We went in October and it was good too but it does start to get cold. 3. You need to remember Kazakhstan is a huge country and it takes time to travel from one part to another. Your options are: trains, buses and flights. We took trains and they are super comfortable. 4. You can find cheap flight options on kiwi.com 5. Why do you want tenge only pay options? For trains, use the official website to book trains in Kazakhstan and that will charge in tenge. 6. Stay options you can find in the video. For cab - which area are you looking at
Amazing travel guide for Kazakasthan. Thank you
Thank you
Only video which helped me to plan my trip . There is no video which is so informative . Good Job
Thank you so much, this means a lot :)
Very detailed video. Thanks Chhavi
Thanks for liking
First passenger paramveer, now you, I love the way, you guys explain, each and everything in detail, including cost, other options, cost of other option.. why to go, why not to go, how much to explore, worth to spend or not?. each seciond of this video is worth learning.
Thank you so much, means a lot :)
Hi Chhavi, really great and informative video. I wanted to ask if may mid is right time to travel in almaty and Zhabhagly and how is the weather in those places?
Thanks Priya. May is actually one of the best months to visit Kazakhstan. The weather is not so cold, not so hot.
Thanks for the lovely information.I had a few queries. 1) Can i use SBI Credit card for ATM Withdrawl. If yes then what will be the charges 2) Are there Indian/Pakistani supermarkets that sell jira,haldi,red mirchi etc.3) Also are 12 days enough or too much too cover whole of Almaty?
Hey Viv, thanks for watching. 1. I haven’t used SBI so I cannot detail that. I used Citibank, and I covered the conversion in the video. You should speak with your bank to understand what they will charge. 2. I think you should be able to grab the spices, but I cannot be sure. In Almaty, there are lots of Indian restaurants and Indian people though - so I am guessing it might be available. 3. 12 days are more than enough for just Almaty. You should look at covering near by areas like saty, altynemel, shymkent etc. you can check saty here - kzhead.info/sun/e8iRe9iObaurhps/bejne.htmlsi=XFXJJ9c4qfWqUDhn
We are doing 14 days across Kaz. Thanks for your informative videos. Can we buy USB chargers and power plug in the airport. Not sure about plug points and converters although voltage levels are same.
Airports will be expensive, get out to the city and buy it from any local shops or markets. It’s cheaper, and I mean it - it’s way cheaper!
Hi. Thanks for all the info. Do we need to book hotels for all the days in prior? Or can we book for initial days and book hotels for other days after gng to kazak? Pls confirm? Thanks in advance.!:)
you can book after going there, we did that with the last hostel we booked and our stay at saty village. Just book the first one, and then book as you go.
Hey while booking the train tickets from the website did you have to provide with a local phone number, it's asking me to do that, also is there any other website that you would recommend for booking the tickets from shymkent to almaty
I used my India number, you can book tickets here - bilet.railways.kz/
Thnx for useful information .which month you visited?
I went first week of October, and was there until the mid of the month
Hey, Can I expect the same weather during November end?
Hi Deepak, November could be a lot cold and snowy. Check the weather on Google but as far as I remember, Nov end is minus degree temperatures
Hi Chhavi, I was booking trains from almaty to shymkent before boarding our flight to almaty. It’s asking for telephone number. How did you manage this one from india?
I gave my Indian number, it works
What type of adapter we need for mobile charging ?
European ones work. But you can always buy one from their local market, it’s cheaper that way
Are there hotels in Aksu-Zhabagly? How long is it from Almaty?
I am not sure of hotels, we stayed at this guest house that I speak about - Ruslans and recommend it all the way. Aksu is far away, you can take a train to Tulkubas and ask Ruslans for the rest of the intructions OR you can take a train to Shymkent, take a bus to Tulkubas and go from there.
If I'm not mistaken, it's a 6-hour drive, I'll be from Shymkent
Yes, from shymkent. From Almaty, it’s quite far
Will we be allowed to enter Kazakhstan again after visiting Uzbekistan or we have to take the flight from Tashkent itself??
We did that, we went to Almaty first, crossed borders via land, travelled to Tashkent-Uzbekistan and then took a train from Tashkent to Almaty. Kazakhstan is visa free for Indians, so you can enter as many times. For Uzbekistan, however, you can get single entry or multple entry visa depending on your plans
Hi Could you please provide the details of Ruslan’s guest house at Aksu Zhabagly Cheers
