I highly recommend Garnet Tourism, especially Ms.Melmar, She is incredibly helpful, approachable and quick to respond any time, day or night. I had a great experience on our Georgia Tour thanks to her assistance! and she also helped with our tickets to the Philippines even though it's last minute booking she managed to provide us the cheapest ticket available, she consistently ensures everything runs smoothly and regularly checks in on us. I've recommended her to my friends, and they all enjoyed fantastic travel experiences too. I will definitely book with her again in the future!
