Rand Travelled directly into the throneroom after he Skimmed to Caemlyn. (That was his first time to actually Travel, other than what I mentioned.)
RJ's comment is not on Rahvin being surprised that Rand can Travel. Instead, Rahvin is surprised that Rand knows he can Travel a short distance without knowing the ground.
The implication is that this is a more advanced skill, that Rahvin did not expect Rand to have mastered. RJ does not say at all that Rahvin is surprised that Rand can Travel. The emphasis is on the issue of Rand not knowing the ground.
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
