I chose Tatyana for a day-trip to Mir and Nesvizh by pure chance. It turned out that she is an experienced guide who works in the business since the early 2000s. I had several guides before in various countries but Tatyana was really outstanding in terms of the overall guiding experience. Her English was really excellent which immediately helped to put the discussion on a different level. Tatayana is very well-educated and expertly discussed various topics from Belarus's fascinating history to life in the country today. Moreover, she is very friendly and you could notice from the very beginning that she is enthusiastic about what she does. We drove in her modern car and I felt very comfortable and safe. While I chose the different locations I wanted to visit, Tatyana came up with a cozy place in a local restaurant for lunch where we had great local food at a very reasonable price. She was also very helpful regarding tips for my further stay in Minsk including a great Georgian restaurant. In the end, it felt more like I had met a friend than a guide. If you consider a visit to Belarus (and I would recommend you do) you should consider choosing Tatyana as your guide.
