“More than we expected”
Nini K and driver Suso were both very professional and organised. They both made our trip very memorable and special. Nini K is very knowledgeable and proud to share her knowledge of her beautiful country. She made the trip to the Oakatse and Martvilli Canyons very enjoyable. I would highly recommend Nini K and would use her again if she was available. Nini shared lots of other local knowledge, tips and recommendations to make our stay in Tblisi that much more enriching and enjoyable. Thank you again Nini K
