Why you need dram and not dollars. What to wear inside a monastery. Which sites pair up on one day's drive. Where the best gata is. Practical advice, not filler. ENGLISH AND RUSSIAN Both the guides and the app speak either language, and the two are chosen separately. Change either at any time. WHO IT IS FOR Independent travellers, road trips with a hired driver, cruise and layover visitors, diaspora coming home, and anyone who would rather have a story in their ear than follow a stranger holding an umbrella.
