    In addition to the excellent organization of every aspect of the tour, what really stood out were the people running it. We had two guides - Omar, who is experienced, incredibly positive, and very friendly - and Shamil, who is younger but just as positive, supportive, and enthusiastic. It’s hard to imagine more welcoming people. They always listened to our wishes, supported us, answered all our questions, and helped with anything that came up. The whole experience felt less like a typical tour - and more like traveling to the mountains with friends :) From the bottom of my heart, I’d like to say that these people truly set an example of kindness and hospitality. I sincerely wish them continued success - they treat their guests with the same warmth and positivity with which this review is written.
