The Best of Kazakhstan Tour is a blend of city excursions, ancient discoveries and cultural encounters that takes you from Almaty’s mountain ranges to Astana’s high-rise buildings, with extended stopovers in historic Turkestan, Otrar and Shymkent region along the way. Whether riding the overnight train alongside local families, shopping at the lively Green Bazaar or touring an underground mosque with its own story to tell, you’ll be experiencing the best of Kazakhstan each step of the way.
Don’t let Kazakhstan’s sheer size deter you from spending your holiday in this ambitious land, holding status as an independent country for less than thirty years but with a history nearly as old as civilization itself. Many of the country’s most magnetic attractions – from the Almaty and Shymkent metropolises to the Ahmed Yasawi Mausoleum, the most revered site in Kazakhstan – can be reached in a convenient loop involving train, plane and car rides through this vast and beautiful land.
