The tour was very well organised and left Tblisi on time. The driver was excellent - no scary driving. The guide was very knowledgeable and approachable. He spoke English and Russian and was very helpful, pleasant and patient. All of the destinations were interesting and we had free time to look around at each place. Our lunch was at a very good, inexpensive restaurant where we ordered our own food. We paid for our lunch and entry to two of the destinations in addition to the tour price (15 GEL each destination).
Thanks to guide Galina and driver Roin for an interesting and comfortable trip to the old capital of Georgia, Mtskheta. Beautiful temples, interesting story and pleasant atmosphere throughout the tour.
I had booked this tour booked but the night before they put me on a different tour. We were picked up on time from our hotel and were taken to the main square and it was so chaotic there nobody knew what was going on. Anyway the good part about this tour was the tour guide Toko was very pleasant and funny young guy and took good care of us.
