You will have a unique tour with a professional guide, who will be with a sense of humor and you will have fun. We will look at the city through the decades and sometimes even through the centuries; We will get to know Almaty as a small provincial town at the Asian borders of the Russian Empire, as rapidly developing capital of the Soviet Republic of Kazakhstan and as an independent state of modern times. We will see the house in the shape of a string-bag and the “Stalin cake house” We will find out how did they were solving the problem of running water in the 20th century and where did they get the local sea shells to face the houses in the 1960s being thousands of kilometers away from any sea. We will speak about the nature catastrophes of the region and how did the city survived it different times.

Spent a great day walking around Almaty with our guide, Maria. Apart from the history of the city, we were treated to a variety of sights in Almaty, from parks, to buildings, to monuments, the cathedral, the bazaar and of course the local sweet shop! Maria has has a warm and open personality, a great sense of humour, excellent English and a huge amount of information about the city. We had an absolutely fabulous day. Highly recommended.
