Amazing experience! It’s a great way to explore the villages of Georgia. Our guide Vaxon was the perfect communicator and I can say that we became friends.
We loved the experience, the tastings and the knowledge that George imparted onto us about the history and culture. I learned so much in this one trip than i did in the 5 days i had been in Tbilisi. George is very passionate about his work and about Sarkatvelo. We did not feel rushed and he let us tke our time to immerse ourselves in the moment.
Levani & Kaxa are really top sellers. Together they organized a nice, safe and substantive tour through Kakheti for us. Nice clear day trip, maae more wine is always nice!
I had a truly wonderful experience on this journey. Every aspect of the trip was thoughtfully arranged, contributing to a seamless adventure. It was a truly memorable and rejuvenating escape. Guide Levani and driver Nukri were really good..
Our tour guide, Vaxo is a cool and friendly guy. He displayed a high sense of dedication and established an excellent rapport with his guests. His knowledge of Georgian history and his excellent command of both Russian and English languages made communication fluid. His willingness and availability to answer any questions were much appreciated. I would highly recommend this tour.
Vaxo was amazing 👍 as was the trip
It was an amazing trip about the history of georgia becoming a Christian country. In addition to wonderful locations and beautiful scenery throughout the whole trip. The driver Lari is a professional one full of faith and the tour guide Zura is full of information and an amazing person. For sure I will recommend this trip to my friends. Thank you for the day!!
I booked this particular tour at $17 despite it being charging more than others (some others charged $12 or $14 per pax), largely influenced by the fact that it stated clearly that it offered WIFI onboard the van. However, to my great disappointment, the van that I was assigned to seemed much older than the other vans at the same starting point and to my horror, it did not provide any WIFI nor any working power output to charge my mobile phone. It was very stressful because the trip would last almost half a day and these days, mobile phone batteries do not last that long especially when it is used for taking photos and videos. Our guide, Levani, was friendly and helpful though, explained more in Russian language and occasionally forget to repeat in English unless he was asked. The driver Umari was excellent and also friendly. Even though I had arrived at the starting point half an hour before 9 am, the tour started quite late and also ended late, which was rather inconvenient. Otherwise, the tour had covered all the main places and activities as stated in the itinerary.
Really nice day trip to Bodbe, Sighnaghi, and Telavi. Our guide, Vahtang, did a good job and everything went smoothly. The wine tasting was enjoyable. Solid experience overall.
Great value. Everything was perfect. Our guide Hercules (Irakly) was fantastic - very knowledgeable, enthusiastic and personable. He made the trip super fun!! I speak for both myself and my son.
