Your Kazakh adventure begins as you arrive in Almaty. After clearing customs and collecting your bags, you will be greeted by your English-speaking guide and escorted to your private vehicle. Here, you’ll be welcomed with chocolates and refreshing napkins before enjoying complimentary Wi-Fi as you are transferred to your hotel. After checking in, the evening is yours to relax and enjoy dinner at a restaurant of your choice, followed by a peaceful overnight stay to rest up for the exciting days ahead.

After breakfast, you'll be whisked away to the world-class Shymbulak Ski Resort. The journey itself is an experience as you ascend to the third level via a modern gondola, reaching an impressive 3200 meters. At this height, you'll find the highest bar in the CIS, an observation deck with powerful binoculars, and a range of activities from relaxing to paragliding. After a day of mountain air and stunning scenery, you'll head back to the city for a leisurely evening walk along Panfilov Promenade, where you can listen to local musicians and then explore the vibrant stalls and street entertainment of Arbat Street before dinner.

Today begins with a comprehensive city tour of Almaty, taking you to key sites like the First President Park, Republic Square, and the Palace of the Republic. A visit to Panfilov Park follows, where you'll explore the impressive Zenkov Cathedral, a beautiful and historic monument constructed in the early 20th century. In the evening, you'll take a cable car ride up to Kok-Tobe Hill, the highest point in the city, offering a spectacular vantage point to see Almaty from above. From the famous TV Tower to the various restaurants at the summit, it's the perfect place to watch the sunset over the city.

Your day begins with a vibrant cultural experience at the Green Bazaar (Zelyony Bazaar). This lively market is a sensory feast where you can browse everything from fresh produce and spices to clothes and furniture, and practice your bargaining skills. Next door, you'll visit the famous Rakhat Chocolate Shop, a local institution with a history of nearly 70 years. After a delicious lunch, the afternoon is dedicated to high-end shopping at one of Almaty's premier malls, such as Dostyk Plaza or Esentai Mall, before another evening of dining at your leisure.
