Thomas Len and Constanze Kühnel from Munich have been living in a motorhome since 2012, visiting 70 countries. They arrived in Kazakhstan for the third time, traveling from Germany to Atyrau in 60 days. The couple plans to continue to Mongolia, China, Laos, and Cambodia.

Rescuers in Mangystau region extracted a motorhome stuck in a swampy area. According to different sources, the vehicle carried tourists from the Netherlands or a family from the UK. No injuries were reported.

A British family of three (two adults and a 12-year-old child) got their motorhome stuck in a salt marsh near the Tuzbayyr tract in Mangystau District. Emergency services used specialized equipment to free the vehicle, with operations lasting over 24 hours due to difficult terrain and sticky soil. No injuries were reported, and the tourists did not require medical assistance.

In the Mangystau region, a motorhome carrying two Swiss citizens overturned on the Beyneu–Aktau highway. Rescuers helped the tourists exit; no medical assistance was needed, and they were accommodated in a hotel.

Almaty's Tourism Department does not keep separate statistics on tourists arriving in motorhomes. The issue of infrastructure became relevant after the KITF 2026 exhibition, where motorhomes were presented for the first time. The city's priority is sustainable tourism.

American travel blogger Connor in Almaty invited a police officer to inspect his motorhome, a converted Lamborghini Urus. The officer stopped him at Medeu, after which the blogger gave a tour of the interior, showing the sleeping area and two refrigerators. Users on Kazakh social networks suggested the officer initially intended to issue a fine for the vehicle conversion.
