MEMORABLE TOUR IN GEORGIA
Nika and Mamuka did a job well done. The places they took us didn't even seem real. They are those kind of places you only see in movies or pictures. For 17$ you can't beat this tour. If you are thinking if you would book this tour or not, this is your sign. Go ahead and do it. Thank me later.

Great day out!
We had a most enjoyable day with Nika today. He has a good sense of humor and was very informative on all the sights we saw. Our highlight was the Kazbeghi area with the gorgeous scenery. Our driver, Muka was also very good, driving safely. We would highly recommend this tour.
