Your Kazakhstan Holiday

With all the details in place before you take off, our Kazakhstan holiday packages let you focus on the important stuff — having fun! A wonderful place to do that is Almaty, which is famous for its hiking, nature and views. A trip to Kazakhstan wouldn't be complete without getting to some of its most well-known cities, starting with Almaty. Some of the most popular attractions here include MEGA Park and Zenkov Cathedral. Astana should also be on the itineraries of all Kazakhstan travellers. Visitors to this city enjoy Astana Arena and Parliament of Kazakhstan. If you're ready to stop dreaming and start doing, Expedia will help turn your Kazakhstan holiday into a reality.

10/10 Exceptional! (5 reviews)
Dear Qazaq Auyl Team, Thank you for the wonderful stay. My wife and I truly enjoyed every moment of our time at Qazaq Auyl. The location is absolutely amazing, and the cottage was far beyond our expectations. Honestly, we did not expect such a high level of comfort, facilities, and advanced technology. Everything was thoughtfully designed and exceptionally well maintained. The cottage was very clean, spacious, and cozy, making our stay even more enjoyable. We were also pleasantly surprised that the minibar was free of charge, which was a very nice and generous touch. Overall, it was a memorable and relaxing experience, and we would definitely love to visit again. Thank you for your hospitality and attention to detail.

Airport shuttle worked as planned, ideal arriving in a city I didn't know in the middle of the night. £13. Nothing to dislike, it's a big and spread out city so it's long walks, or very cheap taxis
