4.00Giorgi Ioselani was our tour guide for a week-long tour of Svaneti. Unlike most visitors, we did not go for the hiking or skiing; we went for the culture. As a native Svan, Giorgi was the perfect guide. Besides exploring the fantastic natural history and architecture (without too much walking), we had wonderful experiences meeting local people, enjoying traditional music, wood carving, and even cooking lessons. We knew that Georgian cuisine in general was wonderful; regional Svan foods are delicious too. Giorgi is a great guide to a great region.

5.00Goga (Giorgi) is a true Svanetian guide. Both in character and in his knowledge of the Svaneti region, he shows the true spirit of this land to the visitors. He took me around for 4 days in June for a video production and was very patient in handling all my necessities and requests during the trip. He speaks good English and was able to explain a lot of different tales and events from the area he both knew and lived during his lifetime. He is originally from Svaneti, born and raised, so he knows all the hidden corners of the region and will be able to guide you in every situation without any problem. He also listens to great music. We're still in touch, this showing how Goga truly cares about his customers even beyond their stay in Georgia and makes whatever he can to make true Svaneti be experienced by his customers.
Best and most fun touring with Giorgi

5.00Touring with Giorgi was fantastic. He was very kind and friendly and accommodating to the fact we have children. The tours were spectacular. Giorgi always made sure we were well taken care of. He is very knowledgeable on where to go, what to do and the history of the area and surroundings. Thank you for the perfect trip and for being so warm and welcoming.
