The REAL Reason Almaty is a Game Changer for Travelers

In this episode, we’re taking you with us to Almaty, Kazakhstan — a place that quietly left a mark on us.

As the founders of Ilahi Travels, we’ve always been drawn to journeys that are more than just beautiful landscapes. We travel for connection, for meaning, for those little moments that stay with you. And Almaty gave us plenty of those.

We talk about what it was like to walk through a city that felt soft, welcoming, and calm — where strangers smiled like they’d known you, and silence had its own kind of warmth. From exploring the peaceful Big Almaty Lake, to the thrill and stillness we felt at Shymbulak Ski Resort, and the almost dreamlike vibe of Kaindy Lake, every place we visited made us slow down and really feel present.

But this episode isn’t just about where we went. It’s about what the place gave us — space to think, moments to feel, and the reminder that sometimes, you don’t find the journey… the journey finds you.

We also talk about the history of Almaty, what stood out to us culturally, and how this city—so far from home—felt like it had been waiting for us all along.

Whether you're someone who loves travel or someone who’s just looking for a pause in the middle of your day — this one’s for you.

Thanks for listening, and for being a part of this journey with us.
We hope this episode brings you the same peace it brought us.
