Excellent scenery and great guide - Excellent your. Incredible natural scenery including lakes, mountains, wildflowers and animals. Shout out to Beso for being an excellent guide and giving a great history. Highly recommend the paragliding was a once in a lifetime opportunity. Heads up some venues will ask for extra money on arrival and most need cash, this includes the quad biking and paragliding

And thanks to our loving, kind Georgia guide, we had some great memories. - I was a little worried because it was a two-woman trip where I was not very good at English, but he spoke to us according to our English ability, so it was no problem.
He explained not only the buildings we go around on the tour, but also the wines and other things that were easy to understand and detailed to suit our interests.
Also, the weather was unfortunately bad on the day, but thanks to them they suggested another route, we were able to finish the tour happily.
I'll always remember the snowball fights we had at the places we visited, and the fact that we taught each other Georgian and Japanese in the car (she said she liked Japan and talked about anime).
He was a really nice guide full of Georgia love.
I hope to see you again when I go to Georgia.

Excellent tour today with... - Excellent tour today with our guide who took us to the most scenic spots of northern Georgia and who gave us recommendations for many things to try on the way too. The weather was perfect and the itinerary was very flexible. Absolutely recommend it to anybody traveling Georgia. Will likely book this tour again next time I’m back in Georgia.

I love Georgia - April is a great time to visit Kazbegi. We haven’t experienced better weather than this. Matshkhetas panoramic views and its historic 14th century fortified cathedrals are impressive. We were guided by our friendly tour companion Sergei, who shared with us so much about Georgias history but also about its economy today and its political viewpoints. He was very flexible and included activities not listed on the itinerary. Gadauri was a surprise I will never forget. Non-skiers shouldnt skip this because there is a lot to do apart from skiing. You could ride powerful snow mobiles or go paragliding over the Caucuses. Unforgettable memories!

Unforgettable Kazbegi Day Trip - My husband and I booked a day trip to Kazbegi with George, and we had a fantastic experience! Sergi, our tour guide, made the journey truly memorable. The car was well-maintained and comfortable, ensuring a smooth ride throughout. Sergi was very friendly and shared fascinating historical insights about the places we visited. He gave us plenty of time to explore each place at our own pace, making the trip both relaxing and enjoyable. A highlight of the trip was Sergi’s recommendation for a meal at a restaurant in Stepantsminda, which turned out to be one of our favorite meals of the entire Georgia trip. Overall, it was a wonderful day visiting Kazbegi, and we highly recommend booking a tour with George!

Great trip across Goergia with George - Got in touch with George through a good friend who highly recommended him. Airport to airport booking with him. Right from the time of the pick up till the last day and drop at the airport, George was great. He knew his country, places and people well. Ask him for your interests to be explored and he has great suggestions. From food, to places to visit and the right time to visit. His attitude and professionalism were what we were very happy with. And he is always on time, everyday. Highly recommend booking his tours for anyone visiting Georgia.
