“This trip was really so excellent! My group was small, only 4 people, which was neat. Vardzia was definitely the highlight - I could've spent another hour there easily! This site is so stunning & historically interesting and really feels unique to Georgia. Giorgi made sure we were able to explore the site as we wanted to which was so cool, we went through some of the tunnels which was incredible. Borjomi is probably better in late spring/summer but Rabati was cool too. The guides and drivers went above and beyond, going out of their way to help us get back to our hotels since it was late at night…”
A long day tour from Tbilisi to Vardzia, Rabati Castle, and Borjomi, with cave churches, fortress views, mineral water, and a guide.
“Despite a rocky start, this was a great tour. This is a very long road trip but my guide was just great. Incredibly informative and very knowledgeable, I started to feel bad about taking all of her time from the other tourists. The only thing that worked against this tour was having a combined English and Russian group, just because that made our tour guide split her attention. Otherwise, this was perfect.”

“The guide was horrible. Roni as he called himself shouted to the driver during the whole journey or he shouted into his mobile or they listened to music at full volume. It seemed As if it was their trip and all the other passengers who paid for it were just burden on their back. The worst guide of my life.”

This tour absolutely deserves five stars — and Jimmy deserves six!”

Borjomi, Rabati and Vardzia from Tbilisi: hotel pickup, English guide, cave-city views, and mineral water, with entry fees extra.
“Nice place to visit but I’d avoid going with this travel agency for sure. Non competent driver/guid. We were about to have accidents 2 times. We were two couples in this tour, we were all stressed during the road because of bad driving. We are also not sure if the driver was actually a guid , he didn’t tell us facts/stories about each attraction we visited. It was a strange not to have a professional guide for this price. He allowed other tour sales persons to keep coming and try to upsell us some non sense trip within our trip (ex electric car tour and 4x4 tour ..etc) Of course…”
Ride through Borjomi Kharagauli National Park with a small group, about 4.5 hours on horseback, pickup from Tbilisi, and mountain calm.
“This turned out to be our favourite day throughout our stay in Georgia. We want to thank the driver, Gocha, and the horse handler, Soso. They were punctual, kind hosts, and even though they didn’t speak much English, they still managed to convey their love for Georgia and horses in a way we understood well and truly appreciated. Despite limited experience riding horses (I had only ridden a couple times before, my partner never before) everything went smoothly and the views from the top were beautiful. In total, we spent around 4 to 5 hours on horseback. Date of the event: Friday, 7th of November Kind regards from Czechia, Slavka”
