Insider Travel Tips
Uncover essential customs for a seamless Kazakhstan vacation experience.
When visiting any country, it's helpful to know certain aspects of that country's customs and practices. Here are a few things you should keep in mind when taking a Kazakhstan vacation:
Know the local language. It is important to learn a few basic words and phrases of the Khazak language. Knowing a bit of the language will help you get assistance from the locals. Other than the Khazak language, locals also speak Arabic, English, and Uzbek.
Check your visa requirements. Some nationalities may be required to obtain a visa in advance, while others are eligible for free visa entry.
Respect local customs. Khazaks expect travellers to respect their traditions and customs. When you visit a local home, make sure to carry a gift with you, which is a local tradition.
Be prepared to experience Nomadic hospitality. When you visit a local home, they will treat you to delicious local food. One thing you must remember is to remove your shoes when you enter a local's house.
Carry cash. Though credit cards are widely used in urban areas, it is advised to carry cash in rural areas.

The on-site logistics with Condor Travel went very smoothly, and the trip exceeded our expectations overall. They proactively suggested changes to our initial itinerary which were welcomed. I would recommend them and would work with them again in the future.Kate O'NeillWe entrusted Goway with every detail of our trip from start to finish and they came through for us superbly! Every single detail was smooth sailing. It was a joy to plan our travels with Goway!! We had an amazing trip of a lifetime!
E&DI recently went on an African Safari with my brother-in-law and sister and another couple who I knew. The entire experience was absolutely unbelievable. The complete details were flawlessly coordinated from the transfers to the breathtaking lodges. Our guides Peter showed us Kenya and Maulid Tanzania were very knowledgeable and very sharp eyes for finding the animals.
We were able to see the animals up close, learn a lot about the people, birds , vegetation etc.
We had several sundowners in the bush really added to a magical experience with beautiful sunsets.
I would highly recommend Goway to all my friends, they will not be disappointed.

Every step and detail was fantastic and I will never forget the trip of a lifetime and it was because of the experience of Kimberly. If you are thinking about taking a trip to New Zealand and Australia, I highly recommend contacting Kimberly from Goway travel. David KleinWe had a blast and felt covered by GoAway throughout. This was our first time using a travel agent and Melissa and her team made it easy. I also appreciated the quick communication while on our trip. I only wish that we got our official itinerary and tickets sooner as we did not receive them until a week prior. But it is busy season so I understand. Courtney McCarthy
