    The tour was well-organized and comfortable. We visited almost all the major landmarks in the area. The only downside was that we couldn't visit the Samur Forest due to weather conditions, but that didn’t take away from our amazing experience in Dagestan. Highly recommend!

    I really enjoyed everything, huge thanks to our guide, Anna, she was incredibly warm and positive. We learned so much, and most importantly, the whole experience was filled with great energy :D We stayed in a beautiful, brand-new guesthouse. Breakfasts and lunches featured homemade cottage cheese, cheese, chudu pies, soups, dolma, and much more :D we even got to make our own chudu pies and took some with us to share with our families. Thank you for a fantastic trip. The group was full of wonderful people, and all the young travelers were amazing .
