Hence his surprise that Rand knew about the ability to Travel short distances without knowing the ground.
Rand didn't know how to Travel, period. (So he wouldn't even know the rules AFAIK)
He knew how to Skim, and this was his first time to make a direct Travelling gateway. (The only other time was when he chased Ishy into TAR in the Stone, and he couldn't remember anything about how he did it later.)
Rand Skimmed to Caemlyn, he didn't Travel. That's not in dispute. But Rahvin did not know this. All he knew, was that Rand had suddenly arrived inside the city out of nowhere with an army.
Does Traveling TO a place make you "know" that place?

Is that a substantiated quote about Nynaeve, because I've never seen it before...

How about Galina remembering Ashaman leaping out of holes in the air at Dumai's Wells?

Well that pretty clearly states that according to Rahvin, Rand should not know the ground in Caemlyn
