5.00A very nice way to get into the Caucasus and appreciate nature. Mikheili was a warm, attentive and knowledgeable guide to his country.
Good option to see Esvanetia

5.00The tour went as expected. Everything went well, although some things were not available, like the cable car. The dam was not in operation

5.00The two-day tour to Mestia and Ushguli was a really great experience and definitely worth the money. Although the bus for six people was a bit small and narrow (max. 5 people would have been more comfortable), but overall it was a very successful trip. There were many stops to take photos and enjoy the impressive surroundings. The trip provided a quick but very impressive overview of Swanetia. Anna did a great job and also gave us excellent food recommendations.
Recommended at 200%. AMAZING Experience! :)

5.00Brutal experience, out of 10! Super recommended. Teona, the guide is a super responsible person with the group (we were only 2 couples, which made it closer and special even) and very interesting and attentive. He knows the region wonderfully and transmits his passion for the Georgian mountains at every turn. He had many details with us during the trip (I buy typical bread, a bottle of wine, offer me his canes for trekking, chocolate,... Incredible) as well as recommendations and information of interest about the country. It was better than we expected. Recommended at 200%.
Great tour

5.00I really loved this tour. All the activities were great, the hike to the glacier was fun and I appreciatie you can pick your own hotel in Mestia. We had James as a tour guide and driver; he was fun, informative, and very happy to stop for photographs along the way. This might have been my favourite tour I’ve ever done.
Unique experience you should not miss

5.00This 2 day excursion exceeded all my expectations Despite the rain and the long distance covered we had a truthfully great and unique experience with our guide James to see this region of Georgia everyone should visit Svaneti! I would say this is the best part of all of Georgia’s nice places. Nature, culture, animals not so many tourists and a great variety in sites to explore make this excursion a MUST do Hats off for our great driver James

5.00We have just returned from a two-day "safari" in Svaneti, staying overnight in Mestia. We did the 4x4 tour with Teona, a kind, helpful and prepared person. He made us fall in love with this land with his stories, from which a deep attachment and sincere empathy for the Georgian people shone through. On the first day we had the chance to do a short and easy trek (2 hours about) to get closer to the glacier. Despite the bad weather on the second day prevented us from making the cable car ride to enjoy the beautiful view, we fell back on the visit of the Enguri Dam, an important engineering work. Overall we recommend this tour: the landscapes are breathtaking, the urban agglomerations with very characteristic tower houses and divine food, as in every place in Georgia. Thank you Teona and happy birthday! ❤️☺️ We hope to see you again soon!

5.00This Svaneti Villages tour ended up being the absolute highlight of our trip to Georgia. The views in Svaneti are just breathtaking, Ushguli and especially the Shkhara Glacier were the best parts. The tour itself was really full-on, with so much to see and do that we never once felt bored. But honestly, what made the overall experience great was our guide, Ana. She wasn’t just super knowledgeable and professional, but also really warm and down-to-earth. She always made sure we were comfortable and enjoying ourselves, and you could tell how much she genuinely loves Svaneti. It honestly felt more like traveling with a friend than with a guide. Out of all the tours we did in Georgia, this was by far the best one. If you’re planning to go to Svaneti, we can’t recommend this tourenough!
Excellent private transfer Ushguli - Kutaisi

5.00Ana is an amazing driver! After our Mestia-Ushguli hike we were looking for a faster transfer to Kutaisi. The car was in a great condition, Ana shared very useful insights into Georgia and we made stops when needed - 100% recommended!
