And he also gave some good recommendations for my trip and connected me with other instructors and guides. Absolutely loved the experience.

Exceptional Service and Knowledgeable Guide – Beso!”

We visited Georgia as a couple and had the best experience ever with our tour guide, Beso. His service was excellent from start to finish, and he explained everything in detail — his knowledge about the history and culture of Georgia is amazing. Beso is also a very kind and genuine person, which made our trip even more special. We would highly recommend going with Beso. Truly one of the best guides we have ever met!

Great trip to northern Georgia

The excursion was very enjoyable, along the way there are stunning views of Georgian nature, all locations from the route are worthy of attention! A visit to the Holy Trinity Church (Gergeti) at an altitude of 2,170 metres is particularly impressive. The place is truly unique - an ancient temple against a snowy peak creates an unforgettable atmosphere. Special thanks to our guide Beso for the inter-interesting story about the history of the regoin, local traditions and legends, also Beso speaks several languages (Russian, English), which was very convenient in the English speaking group! His professionalism and attentiveness made the journey even more memorable.

Amazing!

Our recent tour to Kezbegi was truly a fun-filled experience! My daughter had an amazing time playing in the snow—it was an anticipated and memorable experience for her. Although we couldn’t visit all the destinations in the itinerary due to the weather and heavy snowfall, stopping in Gudauri made the trip completely worthwhile. A special shoutout to our tour arranger, Beso, who was incredibly accommodating and approachable. He personally picked us up from our host to the designated pick-up point, ensuring our comfort throughout the tour. Traveling with a toddler and being 5 months pregnant, his attentiveness made everything so much easier for us. I highly recommend his travel agency for anyone looking for a seamless and enjoyable travel experience!
