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

Please book here. They have good rates and excellent guide ( Nino ). We went away for a whole day and saw cave houses in the SE. If you want to learn and hear more about the country, this is your chance. Very affordable and they do pick ups at your hotel, hostel or B&B.

You definitely should chose this tour if you’re interested in culture and history of this country. I literally could feel the soul of Georgia deep in the caves as much as in the calm atmosphere of monastery, which architecture I, by the way, liked very much.

The guide was on time and friendly. He gave us plenty of time at all sites including Uplistsikhe and at the Museum (Stalin) in Gori. The restaurant that we were taken to for lunch was good. We had the option to substitute a stop, so we visited a friend as guests instead of going to Mtskheta. That "detour" turned into a few visits with lots of wine and Georgian hospitality. The guide was professional and flexible with us. We had a great day!

If you are traveling to Georgia and want to hire Koba as a guide but he is busy, reschedule your trip for when he is available. He is that good. I am just now finishing a 21 day solo trip with Koba that ranged from the east to the black sea and everything in between. Koba's knowledge of the country is encyclopedic, his good humor never wained and his enthusiasm never faltered. I have traveled extensively and because of Koba, this is one of my best trips. This is my unqualified recommendation.
