This tour is a MUST whilst in Georgia! It was definitely the best day of our trip! Kakha is an amazing tour guide and very knowledgeable about everything! The places chosen to visit was picked out perfectly and well spaced out. From the cheeses to the house and dinner included was amazing and we meet some new friends! The wine in Georgia is fabulous and we are now willing to try many more and took some away with us! Views of the mountains to the old bomb shelter tunnels was truly unique! We have recommend our friends to do this trip next week and if we come back we would it it all again!

This is more than a review: this is the story about how I fell in love with Georgia, its people and everything that turned an unpretentious trip to a foreign country into something extraordinary, including the awesome team of Gamarjoba Tours. These guys will go above and beyond to accommodate all your needs and make you feel at home... And when I say that, I really, REALLY mean it - Georgian hospitality at its best! Tata, our amazing blue-haired tour guide, couldn't be recommended enough. As she led our way through snowy mountains and wine glasses, Tata became an instant friend and made the whole experience even more special :) It was trully an unforgettable trip and I can't wait to go back!

Excellent remote walking tour of the old city of Tbilisi with Bacho via internet. The technology worked well and Bacho has perfect English. Bacho is a friendly and very well informed guide. It was wonderful to get a taste of this beautiful and interesting looking city in the only way possible in current circumstances. Georgia is now very high on my list of countries to visit when circumstances allow and I will not hesitate to contact Bacho and Georgian holidays to help plan my trip. Highly recommended. Many thanks. Mike Davey England
