Conseils argent

Cash vs Carte

Cards widely accepted in Almaty and Astana (Visa/Mastercard, Kaspi dominates), but cash essential the moment you leave the cities: villages, park admissions, markets

Pourboires

Not required. 10% in city restaurants, often already included (service charge)

DAB / Distributeurs

ATMs everywhere in town (Kaspi, Halyk). Fees possible on your foreign bank's side. Withdraw cash before the treks

Astuces

  • Eat at the stolovaya (Soviet self-service canteens): a full meal for 3-5 EUR
  • The tenge strengthened against the euro in 2025-2026, but the country remains very affordable
  • Excursions to Charyn or the Kolsai lakes cost half as much in a shared marshrutka as on a private tour
  • Yandex Go (l'équivalent d'Uber) évite de négocier les prix des taxis à Almaty et Astana

Devise : Tenge (KZT)

  • Change at the 'Обмен валют' offices in the city centres: far better rates than the airport
  • Euros and dollars are exchanged everywhere, other currencies much harder
  • Vérifier le taux du jour (env. 1 EUR = 600 KZT en 2026) avant de changer

Arnaques courantes

  • Taxis à l'aéroport d'Almaty qui gonflent le prix : commande via l'app Yandex Go
  • Fake policemen asking to see passport and wallet then a 'baksheesh' — insist on the police station
  • The found-wallet scam: an accomplice accuses you of having stolen money
