Huge thanks to our tour guide Tako, she was very kind and friendly, and of course bravo to our drive for our safe trip!

“Great way to see a different part of Georgia and the smaller towns outside of Tbilisi First half of the tour was spent learning more about the country and its history, along with a bit of walking, the second half was all the wine drinking which ultimately made everybody more sociable The guide Gigi was very fun and informative, and definitely loves what he does (unless he’s a professional actor), you'd be lucky to have him as your guide I opted for the group meal at lunch which had a good amount of food, and wine ofc Highly recommend the tour, is best for those who are up for drinking…”
