Photo from this trip Kanat was super helpful and friendly guide. Everything was organized near perfectly. All days were reasonably planned... we had plenty of activities but nothing felt rushed!

Photo from this trip I highly recommend this tour and Askhat as a guide. Askhat was extremely knowledgeable about the history, culture, and religion of the region, which I appreciated. Askhat was also very open to customizing his tour to fit our interests. I look forward to future adventures with Askhat!
