Price calculated. Change the date or destination if you like.
Private transfer, Almaty Airport (ALA) to Konaev: the car (1–3 passengers) is €75 and the van (4–8) is €110, a set price for the vehicle that does not change at checkout. Expect 66 km on the road via KAZ08; about 45 min off-peak, 45–55 min in rush hour.
Pickup: The driver waits in the arrivals hall of the terminal your flight lands at, holding a sign with your name: after international flights in the main arrivals hall on the first floor of the International Terminal (T2), past the customs exit; after domestic flights in the arrivals hall of Terminal 1. The booking includes flight monitoring and an hour of free waiting from touchdown; your bags are loaded for you.
Konaev, called Kapchagay until 2022 and now the administrative centre of Almaty Region, stands on the southern shore of the Kapchagay reservoir on the Ili river, about 65 km north of the airport. Because the airport lies on the northern side of Almaty, the route does not cross the city: it joins the highway towards Ust-Kamenogorsk (Oskemen) close to the terminals and follows it north across the flat steppe to the town. It is one of the quickest longer trips from the airport, mostly on a dual carriageway.
The town is compact, with its main avenue, administrative buildings and housing close to the dam that holds back the reservoir. Beaches, holiday camps and recreation areas line the shore on either side of the town, and in summer the reservoir is a popular weekend destination for people from Almaty, so the highway can be busy on Friday evenings and Sunday afternoons. The swimming season runs roughly from June to August; outside it the shore is quiet and windy.
Public transport instead: Almaty city bus (airport day route 92) 92 from Almaty International Airport (stops at the exits of Terminal 1 and Terminal 2) to Mamyr-2 microdistrict (terminus in south-western Almaty), daily 06:00–23:00; night route 3 runs from the airport to the Orbita-2 microdistrict 23:00–06:00, sold on the first floor of the International Terminal, 1 change. No direct public transport from the airport to Konaev: bus 92 runs into Almaty, and Konaev lies about 65 km to the north on the highway towards Ust-Kamenogorsk.
