    For a family trip(with kids), will you recommend Kazakhstan? Is it safe?

      Hey , thank you…
      So I would 100% recommend Kazakhstan for a family trip with kids , it is actually very very safe and we stayed here for 14 days and had absolutely no issues specially about safety…
      Honestly the people are really nice and welcoming , crime rate is zero and you will not face any issue at all here.
      Also do check out all the other 10 episodes of our Kazakhstan series it’ll help you plan your trip better.
      I feel maybe just because of the name Kazakhstan many people feel it is not safe but it’s absolutely not true , 100% go ahead you will not regret 😊😊

    Your narration and the way you captured the essence of the city make it a pleasure to watch. If you don't mind, may I know in which month you travelled to Almaty? Is it possible to see snow anywhere in Kazakhstan in August?

    • @AFestivalCalledLife
      @AFestivalCalledLife  2 месяца назад

      Thank you so much 😊
      So we visited in the month of May.
      August is generally still summer season and I don’t think you will find snow anywhere.
      Maybe the top of the peaks may have some snow but really difficult.
      August is still a very nice time to visit Kazakhstan as you’ll have nice pleasant days and cool evenings.

      Hey , i would recommend staying in an Airbnb for sure specially in Almaty…
      There are some really nice airbnbs located in the heart of the city and the prices are very good too.
      So unless you can stay at the ritz Carlton Almaty , definitely check out the Airbnb options

      @ yes , try staying as close as you can to Panfilov park , Arbat street and Zhibek zholy street.
      These are all in the same area and around 10-15 mins walking from each other and this is pretty much everything you want to see in Almaty and is the main city centre of Almaty..
      I’ll send you a link to our Airbnb have a look :-

      Hey , so make sure you’re staying in and around these places:-
      Zhibek zholy
      Arbat street
      Panfilov park
      These areas are all walking distance from each other and it’s pretty much where you’ll want to be in Almaty cos most things to do are around here..
      Also do stay tuned we have many more episodes of Almaty coming up and it’ll surely help you plan better😊😊
      We’re also going to show our Airbnb apartment in the city so you can check that out too…

    Kok Tobe means green hills

    • @AFestivalCalledLife
      @AFestivalCalledLife  4 месяца назад

      So a lot of sources do call it the green hills but Kok-Tobe in literal Kazakh translation means Blue Hill.
      Honestly I think green hills makes more sense but now that I’m checking on google , it’s still very debatable
