The value for money on this tour is unparalleled!!! The mountains are breathtaking and Angelina added an extra layer of knowledge with her expertise!
This was an interesting trip to Kazbegi. I had actually booked with another travel agent before, but I canceled it. Since I met some friends from Indonesia, we decided to book together. I was a bit hesitant at first because not all guides can speak English, but in the end, Mari spoke English very well! Haha. She explained everything clearly throughout the journey. And of course, our driver, George, was very funny and made the trip enjoyable and never boring.
It was a fun experience and I made some friends, from this experience.. The Host made everything well. The only thing I would recommend is getting more comfortable transportation the seats are cramped if you have longer legs.. but overall 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
It was a wonderful day under Contantine's guidance.
Wonderful day, a fantastic experience! Costan, the guide, is an extremely knowledgeable and friendly young man, attentive to the entire group, who entertained the journey by sharing interesting anecdotes about the area and the attractions we visited. A special mention to the driver of the minibus, who was truly excellent. Impeccable organization from start to finish. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to unplug and enjoy a day of total relaxation.
The guide did a great job.
