re: reliable, honest taxi drivers at the airport (Almaty)

Hi,

I've been working in Kazakhstan since August of this year. I'm flying to Almaty for the first time on Tuesday, so I'm interested to see what's going on there. I've read so many horror stories about the taxi drivers at the airport and their scams, so I'm a bit worried. I'm wondering if any of you could provide me with a contact number of a reliable and honest taxi driver who could pick me up at the airport and take me to my hotel.

If any of you guys want to meet up for a chat or drink/dinner, I'll be happy to meet up with you. I'm flying to your city from Semey, and I'll stay there for two nights before flying off for my holiday vacation.
