Unforgettable Time in Georgia 🇬🇪 - While i have been in Georgia with my friends together, we wanted to try something special, authentic and unforgettable, so started to find masterclass for local food. so we found this tour, and i can deffinitely say that it was worth to try. Mtskheta, Jvari and Chronicles are an Amazing places, but the lunch and masterkasses made tour even more unic.

Every single cent is worth to pay - Worth to do. An amazing food, real Georgian taste. Fresh products. Huge portions, lot of wine and Chacha. Lunch is top highlight for the tour or maybe even for your whole travel as well. Family has farms and all the food are so fresh and so delicious.
UNESCO sites are great and Chronicles of Georgia is place which you'll remember forever.

excellent, interesting and tasty day trip - Our lovely guide, David, was punctual, friendly, knowledgeable, informative and a safe and careful driver. Uplistsikhe cave village was really interesting - the steep steps and uneven walk over the rock was well worth the effort. We learned a few new things at the Stalin museum in Gori, although it's a little one-sided. Both the Jvari monastery and the Svetitskhoveli cathedral were beautiful places to visit, and we also had time to wander through the arts, crafts and souvenir stalls in old Mtskheta. But the highlight of the day has to be the wonderful family we went to for lunch, who showed us just how special Georgian hospitality really is. They were such nice people and the table was completely loaded with absolutely delicious traditional Georgian food, wine and chacha, all home-made - a mouth-watering feast and delightful people to share it with. We loved this tour and would highly recommend it for a great day trip out of Tbilisi.

Perfect Tour - There were eight of us -- including a 2 year old, some teenagers, and adults -- and we all thoroughly enjoyed this tour. The van provided was roomy and had enough space for everyone to have their own seat. (This is not always the case when booking private tours with a larger-than-average group in Georgia.) The sites, the driving, and the conversation were impeccable. The meal was delicious and left us fully satiated while we made new friends. I would highly recommend this tour to just about anyone. My only warning is that Uplistsikhe is not a place to go if you have mobility issues. There are a lot of steps and uneven terrain at this cave city.
