I really enjoyed this tour. My tour guide was very knowledgeable. Great tour of the main sights of Tbilisi and Mtskheta.
Our guide (Mary) was very nice and she had excellent presentation skills. On the other hand, I believe the tour price was bit higher than should be.
<p>The tour was excellent - lots of sites to see, lots of walking which I like as opposed to bus tours where you spend most of the time on the bus. Lela the tour guide took me to most of the important sites I wanted to see and was flexible enough to cater to few of my custom requests. Lots of information on the history of Georgia and its jewels Mtskheta and Tbilisi. Again, the timing was not the best February, I suppose it is best to tour the region in late spring or early fall. However despite the chilly and windy day the tour was very good!</p>
<p>I enjoyed the tour and the guide was excellent as well. You get a chance to see the highlights of these two cities. I enjoyed walking around and absorbing the sights and feel of the city. I just missed out on the cable car ride as it just closed on the day I arrived.</p>
<p>My guy was well verse in the history of Tbilisi and Georgia, honest and very helpful. Would highly recommend hee work, the driver and the company.</p>
<p>This tour was amazing specially with our guide Leila</p>
<p>Really marvelous tour. Our guide Ms.Lela was one of the best we ever had. We recommend this tour to tourists who wish to visit Georgia. Involves little bit of walking and recommended to have a better pair of sports shoes.</p>
<p>My son and I had a such wonderful experience. Our tour guide from Join Georgia LLC was amazing and very knowledgeable. The place is amazing and we learned a lot about Georgian culture</p>
