Hello and welcome! My name is Aiguerim (it’s like “I” + “green”, with an “m” instead of “n” at the end 😉), but you can call me Amy! 🙋♀️ I’m a certified guide in Almaty, the "Southern capital" of Kazakhstan, also called the City of Apples🍎 I did some work in journalism, then I taught English as a tutor and also taught Russian to foreigners:) I enjoy many things like cooking, hiking, singing, travelling, and languages — apart from English, I learned Spanish - el español, la lengua más linda!☺️ I’ve been to 11 countries and I’m planning to visit more!
I’d be happy to show you my beautiful city! Although I was born in the north of Kazakhstan, I’ve been living in Almaty for 17 years, and I truly love it! I think Almaty is very special: a place where nomadic, imperial, Soviet and post‑independence heritages meet, making it a truly unique blend! Join my walking tour to discover the city! I’d also be glad to share helpful tips and give recommendations from a local’s point of view☺️
See you on the tour!
We had a great day with Aiguerim learning about Almaty! Being the only ones on the tour we got a wonderful chance to engage with her about her life and heritage in Kazakhstan. She was a font of knowledge and was always willing to answer questions. While the tour was long, we made the most of it and learned a lot!
A lovely walking tour with a warm, friendly guide who was also very professional. The explanations were clear and engaging, and the whole experience felt relaxed and well organized. Highly recommend.
Aiguerim is knowledgeable and very kind young lady. She explained about Almaty, Kazakhstan and the history very well with nice expressions. She brought us to Green Bazaar where we tried Horse Milk... what an experience for my son. Recommended walking tour with Aiguerim (Amy) when you are in Almaty.
My partner and I took the Almaty walking tour with Aiguirem, and it was an absolutely wonderful experience. Even though we were the only two people on the tour, she was fully prepared before we arrived and treated it with complete professionalism. She guided us extensively through the city, covering all the key sights while sharing rich insights into Almaty’s history, culture, and everyday life. Her storytelling kept us engaged for the entire four hours without it ever feeling rushed or tiring. Aiguerim is warm, compassionate, and genuinely empathetic, and she made sure we felt comfortable and well taken care of throughout the tour. For anyone visiting Almaty, I highly recommend booking a tour with her!
Its like exploring the city with a friend in tow.
