5.00Had fun with this activity. Nick was a good guide, cool kid, full of energy and very informative. The pacing was just about right for each site visited. A fun way to meet new people from all over the world and learn about the places at the same. I think this is one of the coolest experiences in Tbilisi. Kudos to Nick and the driver for keeping all of us safe and making this experience unforgettable.
Highly recommend – perfect day tour with Get Your Guide!

5.00**Excellent** ★★★★★ This 5-hour private tour from Tbilisi was just one out of multiple tours and activities I've booked with the Get Your Guide through their app, and it turned out to be one of the absolute highlights of my Georgia trip. The 5 hours felt just right — perfectly balanced, never rushed or tiring. It beautifully combined peaceful sacred sites (Jvari Monastery and the majestic Svetitskhoveli Cathedral), breathtaking views at the Chronicles of Georgia monument, and the lively, colourful Dezerter Bazaar with a delicious wine and honey tasting. What really made the day special was our guide Nick and his team. Nick is an exceptional guide — truly professional, incredibly knowledgeable, and full of genuine passion for Georgian history and for the group of people he connects with instantly. He was warm, fun, and told the best stories that brought every place alive. Everything felt relaxed, well-paced, and perfectly organised, with smooth comfortable transport throughout. Special thanks to Mariam and the rest of the very accommodating team! Such a memorable experience. I would happily recommend it to anyone visiting Tbilisi. Date of experience: February 2026

5.00Our main guide Tanu and assistant guide Mariam made all the difference to this trip. They are both so friendly, helpful and knowledgable! Tanu brought us to the best sweet shop in the bazaar. Mariam has such potential to be a full fledged guide with her great personality! We enjoyed the trip very much because of Tanu and Mariam.
A great way to get a taste of Georgian life

5.00George was a great guide. The tour is informative and the monument is amazing with beautiful views. There is time for shopping and a bit to eat. The van is comfortable and the locations are close enough to town to make for a relaxing day. On our tour it was a rare snowy day in Tbilisi but we had a fun time seeing the city with a winter look. I would recommend this tour for all ages and abilities since it isn't overwhelmingly long.
