Excellent remote walking tour of the old city of Tbilisi with Bacho via internet. The technology worked well and Bacho has perfect English. Bacho is a friendly and very well informed guide. It was wonderful to get a taste of this beautiful and interesting looking city in the only way possible in current circumstances. Georgia is now very high on my list of countries to visit when circumstances allow and I will not hesitate to contact Bacho and Georgian holidays to help plan my trip. Highly recommended. Many thanks. Mike Davey England

She always had something interesting to answer for a lot of questions we had and overall was very nice.

We would like to thank Hyur for an unforgettable experience we had in Armenia. Tigran, our guide, was warm, friendly and kind. He was extremely knowledgeable and also flexible in terms of the activities that we did - we went on a boat ride on lake Sevan which wasn’t part of the itinerary and we also watched a lady bake bread. Arthur was our driver and he was fantastic and kind. Next time we visit Armenia, we will be booking more tours with Hyur!!! Thank you Tigran and Arthur for making our day so special and memorable!

Thanks Land Of Noah team for the unforgettable experience.
