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

It was the most pleasant and memorable solo tour I have ever experienced. Lasha is knowledgeable and a positive and energetic guide. He shared his info and passion regarding Georgia in a pleasant manner. The program was tailormade to my taste. Lasha and Ioane were great company. Lasha's grandparents hosted us for lunch in a typical Georgian way. What an honour to have met them. I will highly recommend Lasha's company to any visitor of Georgia!

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!

We got married in Georgia last April 2021. Our wedding coordinator referred us George to tour us around after our wedding ceremony. He drove us around tourist spots in Georgia. Not to mention that he also took beautiful photos of us and even drop us at the best restaurant in TBILISI. It was really fun!! We really love coming back to this beautiful place. We are a group of 6 (with our friends). We gotta visit famous places at a very very affordable price. We will definitely come back to Georgia after Covid and of course, will contact Goerge. (as always)
