- ADebra· May 28th, 2023Definitely the opportunity to eat homecooked food made with love in the homes of a variety of local people. It enabled me to gain a greater insight into Georgian culture than I could have gained simply by visiting tourist sites.Trip date: May 2023Review collected by Explore!

The amazing amphora maker, producing coil pots of the most astonishing size by a completely traditional process. The evocative church interiors with their candles, icons and incense. The long climb up to Kashbegi on the Military Highway, the traffic, sprawling ski resorts, the halal tents and the Chinese Tunnel against a backdrop of soaring mountains.Show moreTrip date: September 2023Review collected by Explore!

- AAleksandra· October 4th, 2023Food, both in restaurants and especially with the local families. The hike. The views. Great guide.Trip date: September 2023Review collected by Explore!
- ARebecca· September 25th, 2023The lunches with the local families were really good, they were all really friendly and there wasn't any awkwardness or pressure to buy things which there can sometimes be with activities like these. The felt making was really fun although maybe with a small group everyone could have the chance to make their own small piece rather than 1 large piece. I really like the weird hotel in Sno.Show moreTrip date: September 2023Review collected by Explore!
