Scams to watch for in Kazakhstan
- Inflated taxi faresDrivers quote foreigners higher fares, especially if they speak little Russian. Prices for journeys to Almaty airport vary widely. Accepting the first quote can mean paying far too much.
- Taxi driver keeps your changeYou pay with a note larger than the agreed fare. The driver keeps the extra money instead of giving change.
- Robbery in an unofficial taxiAn informal ride exposes the passenger to robbery. Foreign visitors are specifically at risk on remote routes and long journeys.
