First I have to say that the tour... - <p>First I have to say that the tour guide Anna and the driver Giorgi made it all happen. It was more like traveling with your friends. Georgian hospitality all the way. I highly recommend this tour because it talks about the history of Georgia along with the modern progress of this very dynamic country. Ending the tour with the traditional dance was very rewarding. The food was excellent. The wine not included was the world's best. The show was amazing.</p>
