    I’m incredibly grateful to the tour operator Big Country for organizing my hike to the Dzitaku Lakes. I really appreciated how quickly the managers responded to all my questions, and how clearly and professionally they prepared the full set of documents. From start to finish, the managers stayed in touch and supported me throughout the entire journey. Since there wasn’t a group available for the original tour, the company slightly adjusted my route and joined me with another group heading to the Bzerpinsky Ledge. I couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. Big Country works with highly skilled and professional instructors. Our guide, Pavel, was incredibly friendly, positive, and attentive to every participant. He organized the group’s pace and movement so well that it really helped us save time and energy. The hike itself was unforgettable, surrounded by breathtaking nature and stunning views. A huge thank you to Big Country, to my manager Daria, and to our amazing instructor Pavel.
