A great capstone to a wonderful week - No issues at all with this wonderful tour -- Racho was a great guide and driver, communicating well before the trip, accommodating my wishes during the day, and being a fun conversationalist while educating me on the incredible things we saw. It was the perfect capstone to my week in the Caucasus Mountain region.

Wonderful Tour - This was a great tour. Some of these day tours can be exhausting. Ours started at 9 and we were back a little after 3, perfect. Our guide, Ako, spoke fluent English, was personable, engaging and very knowledgeable. The other wonderful thing about this tour was the diversity. We saw churches, dwellings carved in the mountain side and enormous monuments. All were unique and extremely interesting.

Safe driver, good English, arrived on time - Our driver George arrived on time, spoke good English, was courteous, and drove safely. We especially enjoyed the ancient cave settlement of Uplistike, but be prepared to hike up the hill. The tour company and guide cooperated in personalizing the tour by dropping locations we were not interested (Stalin Museum) and adding a special lunch stop. I definitely recommend.

Spectacular Scenery - Lika was our driver. She’s one of only a few female tour guides operating out of Tblisi. Her English is very good and she provided interesting facts on all the places we visited. You need to take a camera as there are so many photo opportunities.
