Breathtaking Kazbegi Adventure! - Visiting Kazbegi was like stepping into a postcard! The landscape is surreal rugged peaks, lush valleys and the iconic Gergeti Trinity Church overlooking it all. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing fascinating insights about the region’s history and local traditions, which made the trip feel very personal and immersive. The hike to the monastery was challenging but absolutely worth it for the panoramic views of Mount Kazbek. We also had the chance to interact with locals in nearby villages, giving a genuine feel of mountain life in Georgia.

A Perfect February Trip to Kazbegi - Our February trip to Kazbegi was absolutely amazing. Traveling through the snowy landscapes along the Georgian Military Highway felt like being in a winter fairy tale. As a couple, we really enjoyed the calm and beautiful nature. Standing near Gergeti Trinity Church and looking at the snow-covered mountains was an unforgettable moment for us. The air was fresh, the views were spectacular and the whole trip was very comfortable and enjoyable. We highly recommend this tour, especially in winter for couples who want to experience the beauty of the Georgian mountains together.

Great! - We absolutely loved the tour. Not only it was very informative, but also done in the way of the open conversation. Kakha is very interesting and intelligent guide who is open to discussing not only the sights on the tour but all the aspects of life in Georgia. He was very flexible with changing the route according to our expectations (we did let know in advance). And have to mention - very good driver, which is important on mountain roads.

Experience the most beautiful parts of Georgia with a great guide - I had a chance to take this tour with Khaka and it comes with my highest recommendations. The views along the way are incredible and you get a true sense of Georgia outside of Tbilisi as well as experience the Caucasus mountains. Khaka is a great guide who speaks fluent English, has a comfortable car and truly ensures his guests have a comfortable experience including little extras like snacks/water and ensuring the music in the car is to everyone's liking. If you are looking for a great tour to get a sense of Georgia with a great guide - this should be your choice.

One of our highlights in Georgia! - Super fun and informative! Views were breathtaking and we learnt a lot about the Georgian history. But more importantly, Kakha is the best. He's so knowledgeable, attentive, ready to answer any question, humorous (but not overly excited which is the best level of energy for us), and most of it all, he's extremely kind. In a day we've experienced the true and heartwarming Georgian hospitality from Kakha, and we couldn't be more grateful! At the end of the tour, we were saying bye to a dear friend. A must-do in Georgia, especially during Covid times when things are more uncertain, we have no doubt Kakha and his team will be able to cater and support in numerous ways. Wish we had more time to explore the rest of Georgia with Kakha. Garmajos!

great service - My group of ten coordinated with Restingeorgia for one day tour. A special thanks to our guide Kakha who made our tour excellent. We enjoyed kakha so very much, he is an exemplary guide and has a fun and easy personality to fit in with any group of tourists. Kakha went out of his way to show us special details and he is a wealth of knowledge. I'd recommend Kakha and restingeorgia for any tour coordination, they will be well-liked by anyone. We hope to see you soon our new friend.

Wonderful trip to Georgia😍 - I had a wonderful time in Georgia! Excellent day tour from Tiblisi with a nice combination of culture, history and natural heritage. Kakha was very pleasant and informative. I felt I had made new friend at the end of my tour😊I was quite sad to be saying goodbye. This was the second time that we used Restingeorgias service and we highly recommend him!

incredible, unforgettable, spectacular scenery! - It was an unforgettable day. at first we thought that the second-time Kazbegi region will not be as attractive but we were wrong. Gveleti Waterfall was amazing. The mountain scenery was spectacular and this tour provided a great glimpse of why places like the Gergeti monastery are seen on the pages of National Geographic. Kakha is extremely knowledgeable, kind and flexible. I absolutely recommend going on this tour
