Wine Tour - We had a fantastic wine tour with David. It turned out to be a private tour since we were the only two signed up for that day. After a short scenic drive to the wine region we stopped for bread and cheese at a local stand it was nice to see how the bread was made and try it warm from the oven. Then on to Signagi, a nice town with a well preserved wall. Then our 3 wineries which were each nice in their own way. Lunch was not included but we stopped at a reasonably priced restaurant with a view. We were back in Tbilisi by 7:30. An enjoyable day and great value. David was very personable and knowledgeable about wines. I highly recommend this tour.
