hi everyone
I’m just starting to plan a trip to Kazakhstan—I’m thinking 4 weeks in summer ’26—and I’m totally in the dark! What route should I take? First off, for my flight ticket, where should I fly into and out of if I want to book soon?
Is it possible to rent a vehicle with a roof rack? Is that generally tolerated? (Maybe around Almaty?)
I love trains, so I’d prefer that mode of transport.
Anyway, I’m counting on your experiences since it’s tough to find practical info about this country.
Thanks in advance for your tips

Hi,
We usually travel using local transportation. In Mongolia, that seems a bit complicated—has anyone tried this kind of trip there? Thanks.
Hi there,
I’m planning to spend two months in Mongolia, and I’d love to be welcomed by a nomadic or semi-nomadic family in the Altai Mountains. I can work and, of course, contribute money for my stay! Has anyone already had this experience? Also, is it still possible today to take the Trans-Siberian to Novosibirsk and then cross the Russia-Mongolia border at Tashanta?
Looking forward to your replies!
Thanks
