Superb & Special--5 stars are not enough!

Reviewed October 19, 2019

Imagine that you are traveling with your best friend--that describes the level of comfort from the first hello. Now imagine that you are traveling with an historical expert, an energetic athlete, an optimistic and humane woman, a curious person who wants to make sure she  fully understands your needs, an animal lover, and (for us)  a guide with excellent English . Her exuberance made this trip unforgettable. She was joyful--I guess that's what I'm trying to say. She bike rode with us, dined with us and we were so sorry to end our time.  We all want to see her again. She is that once in a lifetime kind of experience that you look for when you travel afar.

This desribes Tatyana.  I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Tatanya is an excellent guide! She is well educated and knows her subject matter well. Even better, she communicates this knowledge in a lively engaging manner. She is joyful and very enjoyable to travel with, endless patience as well. I felt SO FORTUNATE to have had Tatanya on my trip for five days. She greatly enhanced my travels. I fully endorse her as a guide in Belarus. I have traveled to 30 countries  and have had many guides, Tatanya is the best!

One of the best guides I ever had

Reviewed June 5, 2019

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.
