    I have a feeling it’s going to be hard to enjoy other tours after this one - it was truly outstanding and not easy to top. The team behind it did an incredible job with the planning, organization, and routes, and the sheer number of impressions is beyond words. The places we visited were unbelievably beautiful - I’ve never seen anything like it. At the same time, the itinerary was perfectly balanced, so you not only wanted to see everything, but actually had the energy to do it and make the most of every opportunity. I’d also like to highlight the food - it was amazing. Every meal felt warm and welcoming, almost like being part of a family. Everything was delicious, no matter where it was prepared. Even if you’re not used to Dagestani cuisine, you’ll love it - it’s hard to stop eating :) As the saying goes, it’s better to see something once than hear about it a hundred times - so this is definitely a tour you should experience for yourself (and ideally more than once). And despite what you might expect - there are no aggressive dogs in Dagestan :)

    Amazing tour❤️ Everything was perfectly planned, and we got to see Dagestan from so many different sides. The accommodation was comfortable, with beautiful views of the mountains and the waterfront in Derbent. As for the food, it was absolutely delicious, we especially loved Aunt Fati’s place. About our guide: Amir truly felt like family by the end of the trip. He made everything easy, enjoyable, and a lot of fun :) He even took us on a night drive around Derbent :D Even though it wasn’t part of the program :) I even got a bit emotional when it was time to leave. Thank you for such a wonderful vacation ❤️

    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.
