What do other 2 guests say about Private Tour to Mtskheta and Georgian Wine Tasting from Tbilisi
Tamara was a great guide. Highly knowledgeable and patient.
Reliable tour operator and was well organized. The lunch included at Mtskheta was our first lunch in Georgia and it was lovely.
Wine tasting was at the Chateau Mukhrani - this might be hit/miss for some that are use...
Tour was amazing the tour guides were very nice and friendly Lasha was one of their names. He was very informative too.
Only drawbacks
1) is we seen other tours for a similar price that were for a longer duration
2) the wine tour should have shown us the vineyards and more
