We went to Lake Ritsa. I liked the tour. I would especially like to mention the guide named Astik, bus 750. The route runs along a picturesque winding mountain road. As for the lake itself, it is very clean, you can not swim in it, but you can ride on it on a catamaran, it is surrounded by mighty mountain peaks, at the peak of which you can see snow. The beauty and atmosphere of those places simply cannot be described in words. We advise you to go to the observation deck, which offers an amazing view of the lake. There were several stops on the route: the Blue Lake, the waterfalls of Men's and Girls' Tears. We also advise everyone to take a bungee ride over a mountain river. Of course, I would like to spend less time on tastings (wine, cheese, honey) in order to have more time to admire the natural beauty. In general, everything was fine, we were satisfied.

We went on an excursion to Lake Ritsa with Apsny Travel — the day turned out to be really beautiful. I would like to thank the guide Aslan separately: he did not just tell the facts, but shared his true love for these places. Thanks to him, even ordinary stops turned into small discoveries — he suggested the best camera angles, told local legends and answered all questions without haste.Thanks to Aslan and the whole team for the care and atmosphere!

Thank you so much for this tour - New Athos and Lake Ritsa, we really enjoyed everything. We ordered the tour from Vladimir, and Sabina and Ramaz were the tour guides. Thank you very much for the emotions you gave them, for the very interesting stories, for your understanding, sociability and friendliness. We also had a very nice and cheerful company with whom we traveled. The places and nature are amazing beyond words. During the trip, we stopped by to sample various wines, cheeses, meat and honey. And what can I say about this food - it's just stunning! We even bought some at home and as a gift to our loved ones, I'm sure they will really like it just like us! And besides the free tasting, we were told in detail and interestingly about this food. These excursions have made up quite a great vacation and experience, which we are very grateful for, because where else will you see such a miracle!

Do not take a minibus tour to Lake Ritsa. You will not see most of the tour, but instead of the beauty of nature, you will admire the cabin of the minibus. We didn't see the Maiden's Tears waterfall and canyon at all (there wasn't even a stop there).Expectation and reality did not match. The only advantage is a good guide.The tour is a disappointment.

We are going on a guided tour of Sukhum/Chernihiv/Kyndig, the places are beautiful and picturesque, but there is very little time to explore. We left Gagra at 10 a.m., spent more than an hour tasting wine/cheese, an hour for lunch, and the group was waiting for Arnold's guide and driver... As a result, half an hour to the embankment of Sukhum, an hour to Chernigov and an hour and a half to the thermal baths.sources. The guide left us at the last point and left. The guide told me it was interesting, but not enough ( The time is 20:15 and we are still halfway to the Gates.

We bought an excursion for 4 people to Mamzyshkha Mountain, the cost for one is 2000 rubles. The UAZ is not the freshest, although they promised fresh cars at the time of sale (but this does not affect my current assessment in any way). Arriving at the first observation deck (it's about 5 km along the serpentine from the city), we were informed that our car was turning around and going down to pick up more tourists, as there were still places in our car. I said that we don't want to stand here and wait. In a rather rude way, the driver of the same company (but not our car) began to put us down, in his opinion, I need to "be simpler", that we are all people here and this is possible. And after I asked them how long to wait and got an answer that it would take 10 minutes, I replied that we could wait 10 minutes. After that, this comrade began to shout loudly, "Are you a German or something? Is everything strictly by the hour? Where did you come from?"))) it was very interesting and informative for me to be in the center of its violent eruptions. Finally, when I asked him not to teach me the mind of reason, his hot blood boiled to the limit. Jumping into his tired UAZ, he said, "I'll teach you more..." and sped off along the route. Our car went down, we stood at this point for 35 minutes. We decided that it would be better for us to walk down the mountain to our hotel (5 km from the mountain along the serpentine). At the end of my vacation, this situation became significant and significant for me, which summed up the attitude of the local scammers for us. Given the skyrocketing prices to Moscow and the facts about hospitality that have surfaced, I don't want to come here anymore. He awarded 1 star only for the fact that the money was returned without a fight and the police.

The service is excellent – thanks for the transfer and guided tours! I would like to say a huge thank you for organizing the trip. We also used excursions (we ordered several excursions: New Athos, Ritsa, Sukhum), and the transfer – we were very satisfied with everything. About the transfer: everything is just fine. The driver is a professional, polite, good, without too much fuss. They were picked up on time, without delay. Special thanks for the trip abroad – we passed very quickly, the driver oriented everything correctly, there was no waiting. Everything is fast and comfortable. Excursions and guides are a separate story. The guys are just wonderful: funny, open, very lively and sociable. The story is so interesting that time flies by unnoticeably. You don't get bored with them for a minute – facts, humor, and sincere love for your business and your country. And I would like to note separately: despite the not very sunny weather (it was rainy), everything went great. The mood did not deteriorate for a minute, largely due to the professionalism of the guides and the good organization. Everything is fair in finance, too. If there were additional payments, they were discussed in advance, no surprises. Everything is transparent. Everything is on time, friendly, without nerves. Many thanks to the whole team! We will definitely contact you again.

We booked through the website, and the manager asked if there was anything else to pay, and the girl said that everything was on the ticket. The ticket says to pay extra 900o per person. And not a word about the fact that tickets to the cave are paid separately (1000 rubles per person for April 2026). This is a big disadvantage for the organizers, because we could have taken much less cash and simply not got on this tour. We were delayed for 4 minutes and the bus left without us for other tourists. They'll come back on the way back, they said. When the group was assembled, they were taken to the monastery of the 10th century. It is considered an additional one. Stopover and is charged 300 rubles per person. It's okay. Then there was a wine and cheese tasting. It went very well, there was complete obscurantism in the reviews of other travel agencies, there was also a separate well-maintained territory, a house where all the wines were tasted from barrels. The staff helped to connect to the Wi-Fi, for payment by transfer. Then there was a visit to new Athos. The cave tour is interesting, but extremely tedious. Inga is really a competent and sociable guide. On our tour, everything went according to her timing, but without too much fuss. There was enough time to inspect all the objects. I left only a positive impression, despite all the troubles and inconsistencies in payment. Transportation is an ordinary gazelle, you may not be lucky with a place, then it will be inconvenient to sit all the way. Also, the bus number does not match the one indicated on the ticket.

We paid for a 5-in-1 jeeping tour, but alas, we only visited Lake Ritsa and the Geghsky Waterfall (we stopped at the blue lake on the way back when it was dark and nothing was visible) We didn't get to the Alpine Meadows, it was very frustrating. I'm already completely silent about the rest of the itinerary, but we stayed at the tasting for more than an hour. The guide didn't tell me anything at all, just drove around the places and told me how long the parking was designed for. Unfortunately, they also poisoned themselves with wine at the tasting. It was definitely muscat wine, because after we drank it in the room, we felt sick that evening. Be careful

July 17, 2025 We visited an exciting excursion to Lake Ritsa. Our guides were the driver Hasik and the Guide Aslan, professionals in their field, wonderful men with a sense of humor. The tour is very interesting, the places are very beautiful. The first stop was a wine tasting, then cheese and meat, and we stopped in Pasika for a honey tasting. All the way, our guide Aslan told us a very interesting story about the sights of Abkhazia, which you can just listen to. He joked a lot and was very positive until the very end of the route. Once again, special thanks to Aslan, a super guy and a very cool guide. His professionalism deserves high praise. Thank you very much to your company for the positive emotions.👍

Thank you for organizing our excursions! We visited waterfalls, Lake Ritsa, Chernigov and other picturesque places of Abkhazia. The guide Eldar is a neat and polite driver who "made" our day: interesting stories about the life of local residents, traditions and history of Abkhazia, an unforgettable experience of a trip to the Geghi Waterfall in a jeep! We traveled with our guide Valeria from Sukhum to Gagra, visiting Chernihiv, Tkuarchala, Akarmara and waterfalls. Comfortable driving, a storehouse of encyclopedic knowledge, an interesting story, fast, clear, unobtrusive, logical and well organized. We received good recommendations from Valeria on visiting New Athos on our own, following which our day turned out great!We were incredibly glad to see Valeria the next day on the transfer to the border! We thank Vladimir for his clear organization, constant contact and advice. All excursions were booked literally on the eve of departure in the evening, while everything turned out just fine, clearly, punctually, without overlaps and delays! We felt that there was someone in Abkhazia to whom we could turn for help, advice and professional support. We will also contact you and recommend you to our friends. Elena, Sergey and Kristina

09/5/2026 we were on an excursion "Chernihiv + thermal spring "Kyndyg" with the guide Arnold. Unfortunately, we didn't like the tour. The review of Sukhum took only about 30 minutes, and we were just given time to walk on our own. But a whole hour was allocated for the wine and cheese tasting. In our opinion, the time could have been distributed much more interestingly. We spent only 1.5 hours at the Kyndig thermal springs, although it was for them that we chose this excursion. We returned to the hotel only around 21:00. I was particularly surprised that we drove back without a guide. One of the girls got sick, and we were looking for a pharmacy half the way. The question arises: shouldn't a tour guide accompany the group throughout the trip? As a result, we were disappointed with the organization of the tour and the time allocation. We expected something completely different.

I recently used a transfer service from this company for a trip from Gagra to Adler. I would like to note the high level of service – the car was comfortable and clean, the driver was punctual and polite. The trip went smoothly, without delays, which is especially important when crossing the border. The transfer was organized down to the smallest detail: all the details were agreed upon in advance, which saved unnecessary worries, since the flight was postponed several times, but everything was resolved successfully thanks to the loyalty and caring of the employees of this company. I would also like to mention the professionalism of Vladimir's employee, who was always in touch and helped with questions along the route. The price of the service is quite adequate to the quality. I recommend this company to anyone who is planning a trip from Gagra to Adler – it is convenient and reliable!

We were on an excursion to Sukhum+Novy Athos 5.09.26. we were extremely dissatisfied!!! Very little was told, and it seemed that the guide Alina was reading from the Internet all the way. They brought us, of course, to wine and cheese tasting. It was the longest stop. In Sukhumi, we just walked along the embankment for 30 minutes, in New Athos we also went to the temple ourselves and the guide did not tell us any information there. We also agreed to visit Stalin's dacha, paying an additional 500 rubles per person, and there we were told only in one room by a museum employee about this place. But on the way back, the driver Denis showed all the "Abkhazian hospitality"!!! We asked him to turn on the air conditioner on the bus because it was very stuffy. He started shouting for us to open the hatches. And he was shaking a bag of medicines in front of us, as if he shouldn't turn on the air conditioner, otherwise he was on injections. Of course, we were outraged, the tour was announced on an air-conditioned bus. He shouted that he would stop the bus and we would all walk from New Athos to Gagra. So we drove with the hatches open at breakneck speed . Blew away everyone who was sitting under them. All the way, the driver and the guide laughed and talked in their own language, glancing at us. It was extremely unpleasant!!! I do not recommend anyone to use the services of this company.

We visited the evening Gagra tour today, let's start with transport-it is very inconvenient to watch evening landscapes in a tightly tinted car, there is little space, then the guide is Elana, a girl who is very arrogant and moody, does not know how to work with people at all, she repeated the tour and could not answer questions when they were taking her to hotels-she behaved very noisily and I had an unpleasant argument with the driver, the whole bus was in shock, I went on excursions many times -everyone always thanks and claps in unison...and then there's silence...

We took an excursion in September on ATVs, everything went super, we really liked it, but the 5-in-1 jeeping disappointed us, the driver named Sultan, the ride was uncomfortable , the driver - guide was in a hurry, accelerated then braked sharply, it was nauseating from such a ride, and we must think for the safety of tourists first! Then I looked at the Apsny - travel route on the website and it turned out that we had not visited such places as a suspension bridge and a source of drinking water, it's a pity.

The disgusting job of Inessa's manager. Communication in the messenger is strange, dry, with ten messages, without details and rechecking the data. I gave the guide the wrong stop name. We waited 40 minutes, we didn't have a SIM card, we went to catch a Wi-Fi, there's a bunch of missed calls - where are you? We are waiting for you. It turned out that they were waiting at another stop, because Inessa didn't even think to go into the chat and check the data, instead of calling in messengers when we were supposed to be on tour. I didn't give any information in advance, the driver's number, nothing. I wrote this when we were already lost, and the car number is wrong. You know, we always get into a situation where people themselves make mistakes. But how can you do absolutely everything wrong in your work. By the way, they do not miss negative reviews on the site.

We bought an excursion on 17.09. 2025. New Athos + Sukhum . Bus 977, our guide's name was Mzia. There were a lot of things missing in the program, for the entire tour they showed only the waterfall and the monastery, and in Sukhumi they just threw it on the central embankment and said you have 1 hour and that's it. To at least see something , they asked for an additional 500 rubles for everything . Although the tour itself is not cheap, it cost 1800 rubles. The guide herself was very unfriendly, showing with all her appearance how she did not like the Russian people, and she did not like her job anymore. It was hot all day, and at the end of the bus there were still gasoline fumes, the whole group asked us to turn on the air conditioner, to which we were rudely answered by our very expensive and not so hot you can do without it, although she was sitting with the window open. Russian Russians are not like that, she even said that we pagan Russians worship lime trees, according to her, if we hug a lime tree in order to recharge our energy, then according to her, we worship a tree. I don't recommend it.

Our guide Satgey and driver Hassan are just smart and great fellows! Satgey talked very interestingly and with great love about his city, the republic, the history, the peculiarities of the appearance of this lake, accompanied by an excursion with a constant sense of humor, which was very important. We looked at the Ritz from the height of the observation deck at sunset, along the way we saw waterfalls, canyons, and a blue lake. Everyone was in a great mood and ended this incredibly wonderful day with a positive attitude! Well done, keep it up!

Good afternoon, I was extremely dissatisfied with the guide Aslan, we initially discussed that the cost of the tour was 2000 rubles, only the entrance to the cave was 700 rubles in addition, we faced the fact already on the bus that the cost was 3400, we also discussed that the payment would be a transfer, which would also provide the opportunity to connect to WiFi for payment. The guide, of course, did not provide such an opportunity. Also, the duration of the tour should be 11 hours, until 21:00, at all stations they were always in a terrible hurry, they gave little time, while they brought 1.5 hours earlier, the guide ran away before entering the cave and drove back only with a driver. Absolutely disgusting service, terrible attitude towards customers, fraudulently taking money from you, they only see you as a purse with money. They completely ruined the attitude towards Abkhazia and the Abkhazians. I'll never come back here again. I don't advise anyone to use their services if you don't want your vacation to be ruined.

Clear organization, pick up from the hotel on time. Thanks to the guide Aslan, we were with him twice, he tells us very interestingly, with humor, knows a lot, loves his country. The excursions are interesting, the drivers drive carefully, offer additional excursions on the route, but do not impose. I advise you to use the services of this company, tested, reliable.

Good evening! I want to leave a review. Excursion to Lake Rizza. Thanks a lot to the Badr guide for such an interesting tour. Well done guide! 1. He came to pick us up at the Astana Hotel on time. 2. He told me how the tour will take place. 3. He talked incessantly throughout the trip, a lot and interestingly, joked, asked, answered questions voluminously and to the point. The tour itself👍first we came for a wine tasting and cheese tasting, then there was a honey tasting. The prices are reasonable, we bought wine and cognac, liked it, bought smoked buffalo cheese, and 2 types of honey. Everywhere the tasting was accompanied by interesting stories from the staff of the tasting rooms and pasika. Then we arrived at the Blue Lake, according to the guide's story, the depth of the lake was impressive - 49m, the color of the lake is really blue. We visited the canyon, a very steep view, high cliffs, a stone of desires that you need to touch. Then we drove to the Rizza lake itself, Badra offered to additionally climb to the waterfall above the lake, a beautiful view, an interesting story. We went down to the lake, had lunch in a cafe, delicious national food. The price for 3 came out at 1500 rubles. Very tasty trout and a dinner of horseradish. There was time to take pictures and explore the surroundings. It was also interesting to return, we visited the Maiden's Tears waterfall. I definitely recommend the tour company and the guide. The tour is mandatory. Thank you very much!

At first, we were skeptical about excursions in Abkhazia and wanted to go to the sights in a rented car, but due to the fact that the driver's license was not renewed in Abkhazia, we had to contact a travel agency and we were even glad that we chose the tour. We were going to the Ritz. I really liked the guide, his name is Satbey, sincere, attentive, tells interesting. Along the way there were only 2 stops for tasting, which were even interesting and the prices are quite normal, not space. There were also stops at small waterfalls and a blue lake. On the lake, the Ritz was given a time of 1 hour 10 minutes, as it turned out, it was enough for everything. And another plus was climbing to a high observation deck, from where there was a cool view from the other side of the lake. In general, 10/10.

When I was vacationing in the Citrus garden, I took a couple of excursions of this company (Lake Ritsa excursion bomba and to the source Primorskoe Abkhazia. The last excursion determined the next two trips to Primorskoe, alas, it is far from Gagra, so not all excursions are available and prices are higher, so now I choose Apsua tour (excursions from New Athos) Of course, if you live in Gagra or Pitsunda, choose the company Apsny Travel
