Tiny explorer, big adventure!

5.00It started very early in the morning, but it was absolutely worth joining this tour! We explored the main part of the cave before lunchtime. After the cave tour, we didn’t have lunch until around 3 PM, so I highly recommend bringing some snacks. The cave was incredible! While going down the stairs, I slipped and almost fell—ouch! haha—but it honestly made the whole experience even more memorable. As a 4.82 ft “little explorer,” it really felt like a full-on adventure! Timur is an amazing tour guide. He shared so many interesting things about Georgia and kept the tour both informative and fun, with some great jokes along the way.
Excellent educational and fun tour

The Incredible Vardzia...

5.00Vardzia is one of the most stunning places I've ever seen in my life...this tour was so well planned and executed. Our driver named David did such a great job getting us around such a difficult terrain in such an efficient fashion. Out guide also named David was great at strategically planning this tour to ensure an optimal experience and he was also so knowledgeable. Borjomi was so serene and beautiful....the fortress in Robati is really fun to explore and fascinating while Vardzia is just out of this world. This is a great tour a must while visiting Georgia...
Good and long your in Georgia

4.00Is a very long tour in our case due to a little mechanical issue on the bus took us around 16 hours. The places we went are worth it to see in Georgia. Our guide got a chance to tell us a little bit about the history of Georgia and each place we visited.
Long but worth it

5.00Very interesting trip, the landscapes are amazing and the trip is very well planned, allowing us to see as much as possible despite the unavoidable long drive from and back to Tbilissi. Zura was knowlegeable and very enthusiast to share the history of his home country.
