Kazakhstan is attracting growing interest from international travelers
as an emerging tourism destination, drawing the attention of major global tour
operators. HiSEAS International is opening its first Central Asian office in
Almaty, expanding its network of more than 45 offices worldwide and making Kazakhstan a new destination on the global tourism map.
«We can see rising interest after so many different exhibitions,
roadshows, we finally see the traffic is increasing this way, not only to
Kazakhstan, but to other Central Asian destinations. So I think that’s the
right moment we have to capture, and to use the momentum to bring as many tours
as possible into Kazakhstan or overall on to Central Asian destination tours. Right
now we are looking at Asian markets, followed then by European and Middle East
destinations,» said Kairat Sadvakassov, Strategic Advisor
for Central Asia of HiSEAS International.
The Almaty office of the major
international tour operator will serve as a
gateway for travelers to the region. Kazakhstan
will gain additional appeal with the launch of a direct Almaty-Tokyo flight
next March, along with existing routes operated by the national air carrier and
other airlines. Another advantage is that Kazakhstan offers a variety of
tourism options, including ecotourism, which is currently popular. The country has
14 national parks with unique flora and fauna. According to Kairat Sadvakassov,
global demand for authentic experiences aligns
closely with what Kazakhstan can provide.
Experts believe that HiSEAS’s presence in Kazakhstan not only marks a new stage
in tourism development but also signs an important message
to foreign investor
confidence in the region.
