Almaty: The Soul of the Silk Road Where Alpine Majesty Meets Urban Sophistication
Welcome to Abu Dhabi, the federal capital and jewel of the United Arab Emirates. While Dubai may dazzle with flash, Abu Dhabi enchants with soul. This island city is a revelation to the modern traveller, offering a seamless blend of deep-rooted Bedouin history and futuristic cosmopolitan living.
Whether you wish to lounge on the pristine white sands of Saadiyat Island, let your children run wild in world-class amusement parks, or immerse yourself in the opulence of high-end shopping complexes, there is never a dull moment. From the nomadic legacy of the Bani Yas tribe to the modern economic powerhouse built by the vision of Sheikh Khalifa, Abu Dhabi has evolved into a global destination that rivals the world’s greatest cities.

Top Attractions: The Jewels of the Trans-Ili Alatau
Our Almaty sightseeing tours capture the city’s unique position as a bridge between the Soviet past and a cosmopolitan future.
Zenkov Cathedral (Ascension Cathedral)
Located in the verdant Panfilov Park, this is one of the world’s few functional cathedrals made entirely of wood—built without a single metal nail.
-
Why it’s a must-see: Its bright, candy-colored exterior and gold domes are a stunning example of Tsarist-era architecture. It famously survived a massive earthquake in 1911, standing as a symbol of Almaty’s resilience.
Medeu and Shymbulak
Just a short drive from the city center lies the highest skating rink in the world, Medeu, and the luxury ski resort of Shymbulak.
-
The Experience: Take a state-of-the-art cable car from the valley floor to the mountain peaks. Even in summer, the air is crisp and the views of the “Little Almaty” gorge are spectacular. It is the “Switzerland of Central Asia” at its finest.
Big Almaty Lake
Perched 2,511 meters above sea level, this crystalline alpine reservoir changes color from turquoise to emerald depending on the season.
-
The View: Surrounded by three major peaks, the lake is the ultimate spot for reflection and photography. Silver Star ensures private access and a gourmet picnic setup for an unforgettable afternoon in the clouds.
Kok Tobe Hill
For the best panoramic view of the city, we take you to the “Green Hill.”
-
Highlights: Reached by a scenic cable car, Kok Tobe features a high-altitude amusement park, the famous Beatles monument, and terraces where you can watch the city lights flicker on as the sun sets behind the mountains.
Adventure & Nature Activities
Kazakhstan’s true beauty lies in its vast, untouched landscapes. Silver Star Travel offers day-trips and overnight expeditions that feel like stepping into a National Geographic documentary.
Charyn Canyon: The Little Brother of the Grand Canyon
Located about 200 kilometers from the city, this 80-million-year-old formation is a masterwork of wind and water.
-
The Experience: Walk through the “Valley of Castles,” where red sandstone pillars loom over you like ancient giants. We provide luxury 4×4 transport and expert geological guides to bring the history of the earth to life.
The Green Bazaar (Zelyony Bazar)
For a taste of the Silk Road, we take you to the heart of the city’s trade.
-
The Vibe: Sample smoked horse meat (a local delicacy), fresh mountain honey, and the famous Almaty “Aport” apples. It is a vibrant, bustling sensory overload that connects modern Almaty to its nomadic roots.
Ethno-Village “Huns”
Experience the “Nomad Way.” Witness traditional horse games, learn the art of yurt building, and listen to the hauntingly beautiful melodies of the Dombra (a traditional two-stringed instrument).
Best Time to Visit Almaty
Almaty is a true four-season destination, each offering a distinct “Silver Star” experience:
-
Winter (December to March): A paradise for winter sports. The snow is powdery, and the après-ski culture in Shymbulak is vibrant and upscale.
-
Spring & Autumn (May, June, September, October): The most pleasant weather for hiking and exploring the canyons. The city is awash in blossoms in the spring and golden leaves in the autumn.
-
Summer (July to August): Perfect for escaping the heat of the plains; the high-altitude lakes and mountain trails remain cool and refreshing.
