It was a beautiful place to visit and the guide was good. Comment on how the booking system is set to to be DISCRIMINATORY against SOLO travelers. It is plainly WRONG that I, a solo traveler, paid almost twice as much as others. In my group it was 3 people: me and two people. I paid $70 more than the two who booked together. The only reason was because I booked as one person. How does this system make sense? It needs to be fixed and Viator needs to refund the differences to those who have become victims of this unethical business practice.

I was lucky to be in a private tour with Vess . Very nice guy and has a lot of knowledge. We had a lovely weather. Beautiful view . It was a Ling day but worthwhile

A good long day out

The tour guide took the two of us in a private car to the fortress &rocks and onto the cave. We had enough time to take photos

Maria makes the tours come alive

Maria_H, Sep 2024

From our meeting point at Alexander Nevsky, Maria provided an outstanding tour experience. Her knowledge of the various sites is extensive and her expertise as a guide is unparalleled. She experienced the sites and sights with us, customizing the adventure to the group’s preferences. Despite the crowds, we saw everything in the tour package “up close and personal.” Highly recommend comfortable hiking shoes.

beauty of nature

If someone loves nature, I definitely recommend it. Very beautiful places. Definitely worth a visit. Minuses - rather poor infrastructure for tourists. Having trouble finding a restroom or eating lunch. But as for me, the views from above compensated for the shortcomings :)
