Review of the $29 Kazbegi and Gudauri day trip from Tbilisi, with Ananuri Fortress, Gergeti Church, mountain views, lunch, and practical tips.
“The price was nice for two people, and although it was a bit of a long day, it wasn't too bad. I was worried I would be too much time in the bus but it was manageable and the stops were cool. Particualrly the water reservoir and the russian friend monument. The other stops were okay to be honest, however, if you are looking to get out of Tbilisi for a day during your vacation, this would be the trip. Great guide, they pick and drop you off in the city center, and you get to learn more about the history of the country”

“This tour could have been perfect. Nothing hinted at the problem I would face — which I’ll describe below. The company has excellent online reviews, a detailed and informative website, and quick, helpful communication via WhatsApp. Our guide was professional and knowledgeable, the driver experienced and careful. The itinerary included many interesting attractions, with plenty of time at each stop, including tasting of chacha, brandy and five kinds of montain honey. The minibus offered free Wi-Fi, USB chargers, a tasty “black box” surprise, and we enjoyed delicious food and monastery beer at Qavtaradze Khinkali restaurant — though it was a bit pricey and quite crowded. However, the main issue...”

“Not recommended at all. Reasons- 1. The operator was rude as hell. 2. We were given less time than what was mentioned in the itinerary which really have us pressure of touching and leaving. 3. 1 destination was omitted, we were nit even informed about the same, when we confronted, guide was clueless asked for several details and then gave us number of travel agent (Dream tours, 36 Shota Rustavelli avenue, Tbilisi). He was really rude and upon asking several times, he said we skipped it due to weather. They could have informed or compensated for that 1 hour they conviniently skipped. 4. Last but not the least, we were…”

“We had a wonderful experience with Khatuna, she was the best guide, very professional, kind and funny. She helped us choose a nice restaurant and was also a very skilled driver, so driving with her was comfortable and safe. The trip was very well organised and planned, we had enough time to explore all the locations, and there even was the possibility of travelling from Gudauri to Kobi by cable car. I would recommend this private tour, it allows you to visit one of the most significant and iconic places in Georgia at your own pace with a magnificent guide.”
Review of the $22 Gudauri ski tour from Tbilisi, with Ananuri Fortress, mountain views, winter activities, costs, and practical tips.
“Worst ever tour operator I have seen so far in my life- Ushba. Guide was very rude and does not explain anything. There is no guide service except at restaurant where they take you for lunch and honey tasting. Important places like aragvi junction ( black & white rivers) was not in their itinerary. We had to fight to stop there. It was just on the road, not a single meter extra drive. But the just make you touch the important places and waste time where there is commercial interest. Later I received similar feedback from other tourists for the same tour operator Ushba.”
Pick a cellar, a canyon or a mountain road.
