Wonderful taste of Georgia's stunning scenery and iconic landmarks. It was so nice having a private tour guide who was able to tailor timings and activities for exactly what we wanted! Our tour guide, Avto, was fantastic; so knowledgeable and kind. We would highly recommend this to anyone who wants to see some of the beautiful nature close to Tbilisi (especially if you only have a free day!).

Very unprofessional service
Cancellation happened after sitting in car like snow just happened now
There is no responsibility to inform customer before
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Full night was snowing, unfortunately we can't control the weather)
So, at the morning, once we checked road condition, we told you that police closed the road, and insisted of Gergeti church, we offered to Go Jvari monastery UNESCO. So you refused and asked cancellation. And we refund all amount.
You booked 3 tours with us. Two of them you rated 5stars. But kazbegi 1 star because off weather conditions. Anyway thanks for other 5 star rewieves.

Excellent guide, very caring and drove us fabulously through the snow and ice. Took care of each us, helping us through some terrible ice at places.

If you want a truly personalized experience, book this trip. Our family enjoyed this experience so much. Our guide Nico was fantastic. He picked us up at our front door right on time and continued to deliver throughout the trip. Every stop he took the time to explain what we were seeing and why it was important. But then, he just let us do whatever we want without feeling pressured or hurried. He was very patient and kind. We even asked to go somewhere not on the tour and he happily obliged. It was the best day trip I've experienced in all my years of traveling.

The day was amazing! My tour guide was Sasho, and he even arrived before the scheduled time. He coordinated everything with me a day in advance, and he was very knowledgeable. Throughout the whole trip, he explained everything clearly and was incredibly friendly and pleasant.

We had a wonderful time especially when our guide Nikolos provided us with the information of the places we visited. He was very accommodating throughout the trip.
Benjamin_J, Nov 2025
From start to finish, this was a wonderful trip. Avto, the guide and driver, was extremely knowledgeable about all the locations and provided a lot of information in great English. Additionally, he was flexible and gave me the chance to make adjustments to the trip which allowed me to take part in other activities along the way (I recommend the zip line near Mount Kazbegi!). He was also patient with me and was happy to wait/stop the car so that I could take particular photos.
Most importantly, Avto was incredibly friendly and he made the day so much more fun with excellent conversation between destinations.
I really cannot recommend this day trip enough and, especially if you have the chance to do it with Avto, you really will have an experience that will live long in the memory!
Andrei_S, Nov 2025
Fantastic day trip with many stops whenever you want for photos. We had very good driver and guide Niko, who was waiting for us, explaining on the landmark and doing extra to make this day memorable. Thank you so much for this trip!

The driver is professional and kind. The car is clean.

We are very pleased to have this private tour with guide Nika k. The beauty in Georgia part of Caucasus mountain is astonishing and exceeding our expectations. Nika is a very pleasant young man but very knowledgeable. We had great conversation along our private tour. I highly recommend the tour and the guide/driver Nika K.

Adem_H, Oct 2025
Truly a brilliant tour. The scenery is absolutely stunning and stops are well selected. Racho, my guide, was very friendly, knowledgable, and accommodating of my personal requests.
A must-do for anyone who has the chance!
Swathy_S, Sep 2025
Had an amazing trip from Tbilisi to Kazbegi with Giorgi aka Gio! He is a great guide, easygoing and fun to interact with and a genuinely good person. He shared great insights along the way on Georgian culture and cuisines and gave us some fantastic food recommendations that truly added to the experience. He even helped us get some good honey carry back with us
All the stops on the way were remarkably beautiful, especially the view of Mount Kazbegi from the top of Holy Trinity Church. The beautiful weather and breathtaking sights made the day even more special.
Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Georgia — unforgettable experience!

What an amazing experience and way to get to know Georgia. My guide Giorgi was amazing. Very skillful driver, fast but not risky. Very friendly and honest and wuite knowledgable. I can genuinely recommend this tour. Please mond that this is a full day tour, so prepare yourself accordingly - bring some water, rain coat, extra sweatshirt or similar. The weather and temperatures changes quickly in September, depending on altitude.
Raul_B, Sep 2025
It is a long scenic drive through hairpin turns. The 4 stops included a lake, a fortress overrun with tourists, Gudairi-- come mentally prepared for a ride on a paraglider so you get to do it, unlike us 😔-- and Gergeti Church. Everything is as pretty as seen in Instagram, but you won't be alone as many other tourists will be there fighting with you for a good pic... So deep breaths. Our tour provider (Karlo) was fantastic. Nice car and safe driver.
Krupali_T, Sep 2025
The tour guide Lika was just a driver- was not engaging or did not explain anything. Expected more enthusiasm about sharing things about Georgia. Would not recommend taking this tour.
Response from Host, Sep 2025
Of course, she was talking your old parents at the mountains from morning to evening instead of you. And While explaining about Ananuri fortress, you started play with dogs. * when you texted me, and i said, how can i improve? You texted me this
"I would not recommend this tour. Lika was nice but did not talk engage or give any information,
Looking back, may I be filled with gratitude;
Looking forward, may I be filled with hope;
Looking upward, may I be aware of strength;
Looking inward, may I find peace.

Iraqli was an amazing driver and guide . Very safe driving in the winding roads of the Georgian military road , gave us enough time at the beautiful Kazbegi hotel for lunch ( not included) and knew all the photo spots at the 2 cathedrals , fortress and reservoir . Recommend doing this privately and not as part of group as it’s a long full day experience
Adam_B, Aug 2025
Fantastic experience. Givi was an amazing guide - very clear, helpful and accommodating. He was always happy to help and very knowledgable. The various scheduled stops helped break up the otherwise long journey and the car was extremely spacious. Overall, a great experience and would recommend to others.
Olivia_W, Aug 2025
Davit was our tour guide. We very enjoyed the tour. He is very knowledgeable and very good tour guide. We have a very good time. Thank you Davit.
Kairui_W, Aug 2025
A bit similar to my other review since I happened to book two tours from the same company.
Truly enjoyed the experience. Niko our guide is super knowledgeable and gave us lots of info, anecdotes, history, and answers to my questions. He really made the difference - accommodating our situations, making good suggestions to our plans, and helping with restaurant booking etc. The monasteries, mountains and monuments that we visited are superb. The Holy Trinity is under construction and the clouds are a hit heavy but the view is still breathtaking. The drive, especially back takes three and half hours so people with weak back need to consider.
I still highly recommend this tour to everyone who has limited time but still wants to see the mountain range! Thanks for the hospitality!
Adrian, Aug 2025
What an amazing day out. Our guide Lika was amazing and so hospitable. Lika was knowledgeable and so interesting talk to. The sites and history to sites aside, Lika gave really good insight to Georgia, Georgian way of life. She was amazing and went above and beyond the whole day. If I could give more stars I would. Thank you from Annie and Adrian

Nika is an excellent guide, very patient and knowledgable and made the whole experience memorable!!!
Jyoti_B, Jul 2025
It’s a long drive from Tblisi. The Gergeti church is breathtaking no doubt. But there is hardly much to see in Kazbegi and Gudauri. The drive was beautiful too. If places of tourist interest in these towns could be identified it would be better
Jon_L, Jul 2025
Mamuka the guide was excellent. Friendly and knowledgeable. The scenery and trip was amazing. Breathtaking views at the mountains. It’s a long day trip from Tbilisi so I recommend staying a night. Highly based on the quality of the tour guide and scenery.
Gautam_K, Jul 2025
Good sites.
However, the waterfall hike was not offered as listed, nor the honey tasting.
Likewise, when we asked about lunch at Rooms Hotel in Kazbegi, we were told we should have mentioned it earlier. Surprised the guide never mentioned it in advance.
Response from Host, Jul 2025
Please be a kind with tour guide and we will be kind too. Golden Rule.
Evgeniya_O, Jul 2025
Thank you, Avto, for being such a fantastic guide! Everything about the tour was top-notch — from your safe and smooth driving to the insightful information you shared at each location. We especially appreciated your kindness and support with the kids’ needs throughout the day. You made the experience seamless and enjoyable for the whole family. Highly recommended!

The guide Davit is very good and helpful. Kind and good person was taking care as his own family. We had covered all places with a toddler with help of Davit
