Important Information Before Visiting Kazakhstan | Kazakhstan: What You *Must* Know Before Going!

[@BOSS-rs8cl]

I’m Estonian and I was in Astana,Kazakhstan last year. I loved it. Super modern, Clean and Tremendous people. The food was scrumptious as well. Love Kazakhstan 🇰🇿 from Estonia 🇪🇪

[@JustGoWithAmreen]

Hey Boss! I 100% agree with you. “Clean” is something I rarely notice since I come from such a city like Dubai but you’re right. It was a very clean country. Almaty has great food and super friendly people too. As a solo female traveler I definitely felt very safe.

Hi Amreen, How easy/difficult is traveling to the remote places like Saty, Altyn Emen, etc,. Seems public transport aren't that reliable for places out of the cities. Or would renting a cab be a comfortable option for throughout the tour?

Renting a car is the best option or private guides with a cars.

[@ryelchnghahnxingmoe7937]

I am confused by your advice, why do you advise people not to go later in Nov? Some people enjoy cold weather and plenty of snow.

[@JustGoWithAmreen]

Then go. But that will also mean that everything you see In My videos, you’ll not see. Roads can be closed and all the lakes frozen. I’ve been there in April in March in November and October and I can tell for certain April is good for snow and non frozen beauty. But October is the best. The cold months you see nothing but all white all frozen delays and roads closed. Good luck.

Please check this for itinerary ideas Ideal Itinerary For Almaty | Trip To Almaty In 2023 kzbin.info/www/bejne/f5ewap6XrJV6btU. As for clothes, my dear the time you’re planning to visit it gets extremely cold. We were there last week and already wearing thermals. In November you’ll need hiking snow boots throughout your trip.

[@Moviesforyouhere]

I don't agree with what you say. Not knowing what you are expecting you will entirely allow nature to bring its beauty to you. Maybe you might not have traveled to unfamiliar places like Iceland and Norway, but it's the most exhilarating when you don't know what is in front of you. It absolutely would blow your mind when you see something unusual and I doubt you had such an experience before

[@JustGoWithAmreen]

Well I’m more like go with the flow person and Kazakhstan has definitely changed me and my perspective towards travel and unknown countries like this. However, not all, but most Indians do not prefer unfamiliar territories and like to know what they’re getting into. I agree with you when you allow nature to bring you it’s beauty with no resistance the feeling is unimaginable.

[@RG.......]

Thanks for sharing - so are u saying we need a guide even in May/June? Would you recommend hiring a car and driving in summer time or use public transport

[@JustGoWithAmreen]

Good luck with public transport. Don’t underestimate the language barrier at all. I suggest getting a guide irrespective of the weather. In the mountainous regions the weather changes very quickly. May June is still quite cold. You’ll most likely get snow in the higher altitude areas. I don’t want to scare you or exaggerate but this is a story the guide told me that there was a group that drove up to big Almaty lake in may or so with simple jackets. And the weather changed drastically, they eventually died because the snow storm blocked the roads, no one could rescue them and the cold weather got to them.

[@violinistajay]

Thanks for the video! Would you advise traveling in Feb? Also, please share contact info of reliable local tour operators.

Who is the best tour company that you can recommend

[@bidhan2011]

Medical insurance or any other insurance is mandatory at Kazakhstan for tourist ?

[@JustGoWithAmreen]

Nope. No insurance is mandatory but ofcourse it’s ideal to have one.

Hello , I am planning to visit Almaty for 5night during march with kids. Specifically to experience snow. This is best time to visit Almaty in march?

[@JustGoWithAmreen]

First or second week of March is a good time to visit to experience snow

Is there snow in the month of October?

[@JustGoWithAmreen]

None at all

[@CHINYK-cx8ov]

I am interested to visit in October and would like to find out tour guide and driver that you can recommend for my tour to the canyons

[@JustGoWithAmreen]

I organize complete packages and yours to Central Asia. As for single day tours you can check getyourguide.com

What's the best time when I can find snow, non frozen lakes and the views are good and are not foggy. Please suggest

[@JustGoWithAmreen]

That’s a trick question but I’d say beginning of the snow season. Early December. Big Almaty lake might still be frozen. It’s the coldest of the lot.

I really want to visit this amazing paradise Would you advice going there in april lay from India. We are three including a 7yr kid

[@JustGoWithAmreen]

Excellent. April is perfect month to visit. Don’t expect much snow though.

[@maryroseramos6416]

Hi can you share your tour guide details planning to visit this coming december

[@JustGoWithAmreen]

I think we connected on Instagram or what’s app I believe.

[@starstruckash011]

Would it be a good time to visit during last week of October to first week of November?

[@JustGoWithAmreen]

That’s an excellent time to visit but there won’t be any snow

[@starstruckash011]

@@JustGoWithAmreen what about greenery? Will it be like trees with no leaves?

Yea it’s in between. But there will be leaves.

Hello, We are planning to visit Almaty from Dec 29 till 5th Jan with 3.5 year old kid. This will be her first experience with snow. What do you suggest? Are there any closures with respect to sightseeing activities in this time?

[@JustGoWithAmreen]

Hi Rajat you could expect some road closures due to heavy snowfall. But you can find ample snow in the city of Almaty as well.

[@nareshlal3694]

Is it good to visit in january

[@JustGoWithAmreen]

No

[@faithless2025]

Hi, me and my wife and planning to go there in March or April next year ,hope it'll not be too cold or snowing. We are hardcore non vegtrns so food is not an issue. We wanna party in the evening and go for sight seeing in the daytime to explore the natural beauty of the place. Pls suggest accordingly

[@JustGoWithAmreen]

Hey April is the perfect time to visit. End of March is not too bad either. There is barely anything to see in Almaty city though. Most of the stuff is outside. So perhaps divide your trip in halves. 50% explore the region live in the nature and relax in the evenings and 50% chill in Almaty and do short day trips to close by attractions and party at night.

Planning to travel in November with a 1 yo baby for a bday celebration. I hope we will push through, just thinking about the weather though as we have a 1 yo in tow.

[@JustGoWithAmreen]

Bad idea. I don’t advice it at all with a 1 year old. I would be ok if it were only adults but I don’t advice with an infant. And by default you’ll need a guide at that time. Don’t even think about self-driving.
