Excellent tour booked on short notice - We booked a winetasting tour on short notice for a company offsite, and this trip was perfect. The guide was excellent, speaking very clearly and passionately about the recent changes in Georgian life and politics. But the day with Andro was the best - he is enthusiastic about sharing his knowledge of the winemaking process and even more enthusiastic about sharing wine with his guests. We probably sampled a dozen bottles of different vintages and varietals, culminating in a wonderful Georgian lunch of traditional food that lasted for a couple hours. 10/10 would recommend

Natural wine tour and experience - An exceptional journey to the heart of natural wine making with Andro Barnovi like no others. Andro is passionate, knowledgeable and good nature on top of making the most delicious wine. We were given an incredible tour of his home and cellar, tasting wine all at the same time. Very clear explanation of wine making in Georgia. Homemade lunch made with much love and local produce can only be delicious and accompanied by more delicious wine too. We would very much like to thank Tsotne, Traffic Travel Georgia for making this experience possible. Good communication and reliable from the start to the end.

An Oenological Experience to Rival Any Other - This is a truly special tour for a remarkably affordable price. The drive from the city to Andro’s place is breath taking and the world class guide provided an excellent presentation on Georgian history ranging from antiquity to the 2008 war. No detail was spared but the presnatoin was far from dry or overbearing. I do not want to overshadow the experience with a deep analysis. The wines on offer at Andros place are simply exceptional. These are one of a kind blends that you cannot tase anywhere else in the world. His production overview is immersive and engagning. This is far from a clinical experience he has something new to say each time I would imagine as the blends are ever evolving. Andro is generous with portions before bottles are even opened. You have the opportunity to taste some amazing natural liquors as well. The tasting it self is heavenly Andro and his lovely wife provide a meal second to none. Combinations flavors and textures which will be eye opening if you are unfamiliar with Georgian cuisine. Accompanying this meal are some of the finest wines imaginable and memorable conversation. Andro is a true renaissance man we touched on topics ranging from Georgian history and linguistics to astronomy. We left Andros with a case of wine some natural liquor and enough memories to last a lifetime. I truly hope to return as soon as I can. A quick note on traffic travel. This is a FIRST RATE company. They engaged with me to tailor a meaningful experience which exceeded the promises from the advertisement. Emails were answered at all hours of the day some even at 3am, no request seems too ridiculous and the end result was simply incredible. Traffic Andro and our guide davit made every second spent in Georgia memorable. I cannot recommend their services enough.
