We did 4 days Svaneti trek with Highlander travels & we loved it. Gist of our review is as below:
1. The trek was very nice. Very scenic. Would definitely recommend the same wholeheartedly. The views of Tetnuldi & Skhara glacier were heavenly. The river crossing experience was also very unique.
2. Our guide Nini was fabulous. She is very knowledgeable, considerate, courteous & went out of her way to ensure our well-being. We were indeed fortunate to have a guide like her.
3. All the places where we stayed at Jabeshi, Adishi, Iprali & Mestia were excellent & we are totally happy. Especially the lady host at Jabeshi was very nice...so were our hosts at Mestia.
4. The food at every place was gorgeous. Highly recommend the food at Jabeshi & Mestia. It was out of this world.
One minor irritant was that we expected internet connectivity at Mestia being a tourist town. But to our disappointment, the guest house didn't have one. We had to rely upon hotspot provided by the host, which was very weak & didn't serve any purpose.
All in all, we thoroughly enjoyed our Svaneti trek with Nini as our tour guide & will recommend it wholeheartedly.
