Brilliant organic wine tour! - We booked a private organic wine tour with Vaska, our wonderful guide for the day. Vaska was extremely knowledgeable and passionate, not only about the organic wines of the region but gave us interesting insights into his culture and its history. We were all so delighted that we found him via Viator and would recommend him highly to others seeking a similar tour. It was a most memorable day and experience for us all. Thank you SO much!!

Sustainability and quality - Great trip. The wineries were chosen for their love of sustainability and their care for the wine, the land, and their country. Nick was a kind and informative guide. It felt like we were getting a VIP tour of Georgia’s best.

Best wine tour ever - This wine tour was a gift from family upon arrival in Georgia to myself and my wife. After easy and direct contact with the organization, we were picked up by Vaska (one of the company founders) in Udabno, a city which is at least 60 minutes off the initial tour route. As this stop was slightly unusual regarding the normal itinerary, the organization decided to adjust the route and vineyard stops to best match the Udabno pick up. Hence we joined Vaska in his airconditioned Toyota (although we actually used open windows instead to better consume the countryside). Vaska is fluent in English, extremely passionate about wine and agriculture, but also in Georgia(n history). Consequently, the wine tour was actually also a crash course in cultural education, in addition to laughing a lot. The first stop was after 1.5hr drive at Okros in Sighnagi, which has a magnificent lunch, wine tasting and view from the terras. Slightly tipsy we continued our trip via Mosmieri (more luxurious place, short stop) to Kondoli wine cellar, for sure the summum of the trip. The winemaker is a 48 year old man, who lives by himself as his wife and kids are in Western Europe for a professional sports carreer. We learned the proces of making natural wines from A to Z (including the lovely Georgian chants that accompany the manufacturing), with Vaska vastly translation every single word. Eventually, he insisted on staying until all bottles (which were opened for tasting) were finished. After having also tried his two different Cha-chas and learned about it impressive personal history, it was time to hit back for the two hour drive to Tbilisi, were we arrived after 9pm (through impressive nature, see sunset pics). Vaska drove us the entire ride (luckily, because we certainly were no longer allowed to drive) while we DJ'ed from the backseats. However, although this ended up being a tasting + drinking experience, I'm convinced that Vaska (or colleagues) feel the vibe of their guests and make sure that your tour matches you personal wishes.

Great day with Vaska - A must do if you’re into food, wine or organic agriculture. You enjoy great scenery, food and wine. The best part was meeting and taking with the passionate wine makers directly (you can’t get that experience visiting a large , Shumi-like, winery) We enjoyed the drive to Kakheti where Vaska explained the history of the Georgian wine and he current industry scene. It was clear that he and the wineries he visits on the tour are passionate about nature, sustainable and organic practices and preserving tradition while improving quality Expect 3 main stops (depends on session) but the ones we did were: - VELLINO’s: was great meeting the young wine maker Beke. Tried the white, rose and Saperavi - Okro's Wines: this is a caller/restaurant nice traditional lunch with exceptional view on the Signagi town, and Alazany valley - GHVARDZELASHVILI'S: George was a great host :)

Amazing Winery Tour with Mariam! - My friends and I had the absolute best time on this winery tour with Mariam!!! She was a huge reason as to why we enjoyed our trip so much! As she toured us around she talked to us about Georgian culture and history and taught us several Georgian phrases we used the rest of our trip. We loved the 3 organic wineries we went! They all taught us so much about the unique process of Georgian wine and we ended up buying bottles from all 3 wineries! The whole day was an incredible experience and I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND it to anyone and everyone!

My friends and I HIGHLY recommend this tour and especially Mariam as the tour guide.

His knowledge and expertise helped us understand and appreciate the history of Georgian wine making. The vineyards he selects are organic and the wines were fabulous. Lunch was simply delicious! . This is a “must do” if you are in the area. Thank you Vaska
