Despite the pandemic, Kazakhstanis continue to travel abroad and within the country. Experts in the field of tourism spoke about the preferences of Kazakh people this year and Georgia is among top popular destinations.
Director of the Kazakhstan Association of Tour Operators Inna Ray said in an interview to Inbusiness.kz that the preferences of people have not changed much.
Antalya leads in the rating of the top destinations, followed by Egypt with the resorts in Hurghada, Sharm el-Sheikh and Mersa Matruh. Trips to the United Arab Emirates are also in demand. Georgia is of interest to Kazakh citizens, says Ray adding that “the number of people who want to spend vacations in Georgia is constantly growing.”
Ray names Georgia among summer destinations with reasonable prices. “There are practically no all-inclusive hotels in Georgia, so you will need to organize your stay yourself. Do not be afraid to travel to Georgia during the high season. Even if you cannot find an all-inclusive hotel, you can have an inexpensive and high-quality vacation,” Ray recommends to Kazakh people.
According to the Georgian National Tourism Administration, 15,475 visitors traveled to Georgia from Kazakhstan during Jan-June 2021, up from 10,379 from Jan-June 2020.
