Our tour guide Irakli was one of the best tour guides I’ve ever interacted with. He genuinely cared about us and our experience. He learned what we were interested in and adjusted. Our group was quite interested in shopping, he gave us time to do that. We also wanted photos, not only did he take excellent photos for us, he gave us ideas on how to pose. He also provided a lot of knowledge about the historical sites and both historical and modern culture. When I forgot my jacket behind he offered to drive 45 minutes back to get it. It felt like a good local friend taking us on a tour. Would absolutely do this tour again!
I'd love to go on a tour with your three again 🥰🥰🥰
Irakli was an amazing tour guide. His knowledge of the local history, wine and food really enhanced our tour. He even taught us some Georgian dance moves! But more importantly he was flexible about pick up locations, and waited patiently while we shopped and took pictures. He is an amazing photographer/videographer himself so we have some great memories. But on top of all that his kindness is what I truly appreciated. When my friend discovered that she had left her jacket behind he offered to drive us 45 minutes back to the location. You won’t find a better guide!
I would say, whole day was an amazing because of you. I enjoy a lot with kind and friendly people. I was lucky to have you on a tour 🥰
This day trip provided an excellent overview of Kazbegi. It was rich with wonderful landscapes, from dams to gorges and the Caucasus Mountains. The short hike to the Gvelati Waterfall was fun and we were rewarded with a very peaceful view and crystal-clear water. Anunari Fortress and the Gergeti Trinity Church are both important historical sites and also make for wonderful pictures. I would highly recommend this tour. Tato, our guide, was attentive to our needs and always made sure we were comfortable. Lunch was excellent and portions were very large.
