Tbilisi (English: /təbɪˈliːsi, təˈbɪlɪsi/ tə-bih-LEE-see, tə-BIL-ih-see; Georgian: თბილისი [tʰbilisi] ( listen)), in some countries also still named by its pre-1936 international designation Tiflis (/ˈtɪflɪs/ TIF-liss), is the capital and the largest city of Georgia, lying on the banks of the Kura River with a population of approximately 1.5 million people. Founded in the 5th century AD by Vakhtang I of Iberia, since then Tbilisi served as the capital of various Georgian kingdoms and republics. Between 1801 and 1917, then part of the Russian Empire, Tbilisi was the seat of the Imperial Viceroy, governing both Southern and Northern Caucasus.

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

Omg! I cannot even start describing how memorable Karlo made this entire experience for me and my sister who recently took a trip with him. He curated the trip in a short time exactly how we had imagined. We hiked in the rain which was so worth it, we visited his village which was so beautiful, met some lovely locals, tasted fabulous wine, horseback riding across nature and basically had a great time. Karlo understood us and delivered his best. I have been to Georgia before but I have never had such a different and worthwhile experience. I am glad we chose Karlo and we will soon come back for more adventure.

Our trip guided by David was perfect! David knows and loves so much about Georgia and is so happy to share it with you. It made me love Georgia, too. He is very responsible and a lot of fun and he let us decide much about how we want that trip to be, in order to give us the best experience. The trip during winter was just amazing with everything so white in the mountains, covered in snow, and the peace at Gergeti Trinity Church, the monestaries we stoped at, the changing views besides the road (the water reservoir, the wild river, then the mountains...), the Georgian lunch we had, the breathtaking view at the friendship monument.

During this day, we visit contrasting sites of several historical eras. A professional guide and safe driver with comfortable car, take you to the adventure in the south part of Georgia. We start our trip at 08:30. Our driver and the guide pick you up from the hotel. We have three destinations to visit in southern Georgia : Vardzia cave complex, Rabati castle and Borjomi. We start our journey with Vardzia, which is a cave dating back to 12th century, excavated from the slopes of the Erusheti Mountain. We go on the way to Rabati Castle, that is a medieval castle complex of Asian style in Akhaltsikhe. Built in the 13th century, Rabati castle developed under the influence of different cultures over subsequent centuries and this is reflected in its architecture. Our last destination is Borjomi. Borjomi is a hydro-thermal health spa resort in the southern region of Samtskhe-Javakheti in Georgia. Borjomi has an international reputation for its geothermal spring mineral water resources.

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!

No about service I am very happy with them, guide And driver picked up me on time, guide was very knowledgeable and friendly car was super comfortable very new and clean,driver was speaking minimum English but it was okay for me. Highly recommend this tour and I think I will take another tour from this company
