Плавали с Валерием, в августе 2019 по реке Риони. Прекрасный профессионал, отлично ведёт группы на английском и русском, знает всю историю и ответы на Любой вопрос. Гостеприимен как никто другой , только переживал чтобы все поели от души 😀 вёл профессионально всю поездку, беседовал и на посторонние темы - делился опытом, пригласил на более сложные сплавы. Надеюсь вернёмся ещё и обязательно поплывем с ним 🙏🏻

My wife and I had an excellent day with Getur company. The customer approach of the whole team (Valerian, Dimitri, David) is exceptional. They give a very personal touch, are highly professional in all matters while also being really good fun. It’s run by great people who care about the customers and want you to have the best possible emotions.

А начну я свой отзыв со слов благодарности Сергею и всей его команде за отличную организацию рафтинга, хорошее настроение и весёлый, сбалансированный, местами захватывающи дух экстрим! Природа, погода и быстрое течение Риони также способствовали незабываемым впечатлениям и положительным эмоциям. Мы с друзьями были просто в восторге и решили в скором времени вернуться в Грузию, чтобы пройти под руководством Сергея по маршруту с более высокой категорией сложности.
