Reviews of Small Group tours to Georgia
- 10 Day Authentic Georgia
We enjoyed our tour very much, especially with our guide Lasha, who is very experienced and knowledgeable. I felt that travel times between some places were very long and some knowledge of that beforehand would have been useful, eg I would have preferred an extra night in Batumi after a long drive from the mountains. Some of the expected attractions were closed with no apologies or advanced warning from the ticket offices or alternatives eg. Sataplia cave and Svan tower museum in Mestia. However, we enjoyed visiting Georgia and want to thank everyone involved who helped to arrange our trip, especially given the pandemic situation, we were very grateful to have our holiday which was postponed from last year.
- 8-Day Trekking Group Tour in Svaneti
Joined the 15 Sept - 20 Sept run; the group size of 8 from 7 countries was just right and could not have asked for better company. Accommodation is basic but food is plentiful (and delicious).
- Grand Georgia Journey Through Highlands and Sea
A friend of mine and I went on a customized one-week tour of Georgia in March/April 2021. We had a fantastic experience. The tour was professionally planned and both the owner of exotour Niko and our guide Vakho did their utmost to take excellent care of us. They were very receptive to our wishes and enabled us to make smaller adjustments along the way. Travelling during Corona involved some extra tests but Niko had planned everything for us, which made them doable. In return, we got the opportunity to experience Georgia with very few tourists. In some places, such as the cave city of Vardzia and the Svaneta villages of Ushguli, we were the only tourists (!), which felt very special. Altogether the trip was a unique experience and I would highly recommend it to others. Based on this experience I would also not hesitate to travel to Georgia during the pandemic.
What our customers ask about Georgia Small Group Tours
What is the ideal length for a small group tour in Georgia?
Most successful small group tours in Georgia run between 7-10 days. This timeframe gives travelers enough time to explore key destinations without feeling rushed. The Georgia Highlights tour takes 10 days through Tbilisi Kazbegi and Svaneti while the Georgia Real Food Adventure runs a compact 8 days. A TourRadar traveler noted: "Eight days was perfect to really get to know both the country and our small group."
What type of accommodation can I expect on small group tours in Georgia?
Accommodations range from modern city hotels to traditional mountain guesthouses. In Tbilisi travelers often stay at places like Hotel Heritage & Suites while remote areas like Svaneti offer stays at family-run properties such as Mestia Inn with views of medieval towers. The remote Tusheti region features traditional guesthouses in villages like Omalo and Dartlo where modern amenities meet local architecture.
What kind of dining experiences are available on small group tours in Georgia?
Small groups enjoy access to intimate dining venues that larger tours cannot visit. Travelers can join a traditional supra feast in a Tbilisi family home taste wines at smaller producers like Chateau Mukhrani or eat at family-run restaurants in Mestia. As one TourRadar traveler noted: "Our small group size meant we could dine at authentic family restaurants and even join cooking classes to learn traditional Georgian dishes like khachapuri and khinkali."
How much more expensive are small group tours compared to larger tours in Georgia?
Small group experiences cost 20-30% above standard tour prices with daily rates from $172-$306 based on itinerary and comfort level. While regular group tours average $142 per day premium small group tours staying at boutique hotels like Piazza Four Colours in Batumi or including private wine tastings reach $306 daily. TourRadar travelers often note that the personalized experience justifies the higher cost with one sharing "the personalized attention and unique experiences justified the higher price point."
What regions in Georgia are best suited for small group travel?
The mountainous regions of Svaneti Tusheti and the wine country of Kakheti work especially well for small groups. These areas have fewer tourists but offer rich cultural experiences. Small groups can explore UNESCO villages like Ushguli or visit family wineries in Sighnaghi. A TourRadar traveler noted: "Our small group size allowed us to stay in remote mountain villages and really experience local life in Svaneti."
How does transportation work on small group tours in Georgia?
Tours use minivans or 4x4 vehicles equipped for both city streets and mountain paths. In remote areas like Tusheti specialized vehicles such as Mitsubishi Delica handle the challenging terrain. According to TourRadar travelers "Levan was an excellent guide and driver making us feel safe even on the most adventurous mountain roads while providing detailed information about the places we visited."
What makes small group tours in Georgia more special than larger group tours?
Small groups can adapt their schedule and access experiences unavailable to larger tours. Travelers can join wine-making at family vineyards in Kakheti take cooking classes in Tbilisi homes and dine at small local restaurants in Sighnaghi's old town. Boutique accommodations like Hotel New Port in Kutaisi welcome small groups. A TourRadar traveler shared: "The small group size meant we could stop at local markets meet families and have authentic experiences that would be impossible with a big bus tour. Our guide could also give us more personal attention and detailed explanations about Georgian history and culture."
