Thanks to Gennady, the pro driver, and Irina for their responsiveness and flexibility in organizing the tour (I replaced the departure from another city and Irina organized the tour individually for my request, tracked everything and ordered a taxi!) Prosperity to you! I recommend it boldly

about provider

The organization is at the highest level! Starting with the driver, Gennady, a great guy, drove up on the minute, the guides Alina in Grozny and Nazir in Derbent are the best and we got them). We not only liked the professional stories about the objects of visits, but they were happy to answer our personal questions of interest. True, we did not live in the same hotel, but my friend and I really liked the place, the new embankment with good restaurants, and kind local people)) I will definitely recommend you to my friends and try to use your services again.
