5.00I took a side trip from Tbilisi to Kutaisi, which is a beautiful wonder in and of itself! Then, I took this tour with Maxim, a great driver and guide who was very accommodating to my wishes for places to stop/skip on the trip to Mestia. Mestia is absolutely gorgeous! It is a Georgian mountain town near the Russian border, in the high Caucasus. The whole drive there and back, you will see so many spectacular views of snowcapped mountains, forests, and waterfalls! There are also great places to get traditional Georgian food along the way!
