Great tour that sums up most of the important parts of both Tbilisi and Mtskheta without feeling rushed or superficial. Sadly the cable cars were down when we visited, but a trip in the city Funicular more than made up for it. We had an amazing guide, Ms. Anna, who is very knowledgeable about the history of the country and the places while also being great company. Transport couldn't be any better. Overall great experience which I highly recommend despite the slightly high price compared to normal tours.

Can not go in the Church due to Sunday. If this is mention on the booking time will definitely help.

We had the same guide, Eka, as for our Private Tbilisi Walking Tour plus Wine Tasting and Dinner two days before, and were so glad we did. Eka and our driver both speak very good English and offered a lot of personal and very interesting knowledge and insights to the area and to the culture and history of Georgia. It was a very entertaining tour of Mtskheta even learned how to pronounce it! We picked the specific day based on the WeatherUnderground forecast to make sure we had clear weather and were able to bring back a lot of great photos. Eka was able to tailor the Tbilisi part of the day to cover the things that we were not able to do or see on our earlier tour.
