What People Are Saying
Real experiences from people who've transformed their dynamics in Almaty
I visited Almaty in February 2025. I had never been to Kazakhstan prior to this but had close friends from college from there. Upon visiting I was amazed - what a beautiful place! From out of this world scenery to great night life, delicious food and a strong coworking culture - I found it easy to fit in and not only enjoy a largely unexplored part of the world, but also progress my work and career. I met many motivated and friendly Kazakhs who I shared great memories with. I left in disbelief that I had never given Kazakhstan, and Almaty, the attention it truly deserves! Since then I have been singing its praises back in Ireland. I would definitely recommend!

I visited Almaty in August 2025 and the weather couldn’t have been better, warm and sunny during the day, then cool and refreshing in the evenings. The city itself is really easy to navigate, with plenty of good hotels and excellent internet, which makes working remotely seamless. What stood out most was the mix of local knowledge and hidden gems: small restaurants, markets, and places you’d never stumble across on your own. People are incredibly friendly and welcoming. On top of that, just outside the city you’ve got incredible nature on your doorstep, Big Almaty Lake and the mountains are unforgettable. It’s a perfect balance of comfort, culture, and adventure, and I’d highly recommend it for an offsite.

Almaty presents a compelling and unique case for any team considering a work offsite. The city itself is a fantastic hub for productivity, offering excellent digital infrastructure and a welcoming atmosphere that makes remote collaboration seamless. What truly elevates Almaty as a destination, however, is the unparalleled work-life balance it facilitates. Its immediate proximity to breathtaking nature is a key advantage; the scenic mountains, crystal-clear lakes, and the world-class Shymbulak ski resort create the perfect environment for a team to disconnect, recharge, and bond after focused work sessions. This powerful blend of urban efficiency and natural wonder provides an incredible backdrop for fostering creativity and strengthening team dynamics. For any organization looking to combine productivity with unforgettable shared adventures, Almaty is a destination that delivers on all fronts.
