Additional Information

The Caucus Mountains are admired for their captivating beauty and the area’s profound past. The isolated Gergeti Trinity Church, the only structure of its kind in the Khevi province, was constructed in the 14th century by an anonymous builder. The separate bell tower, constructed slightly later, is from the equivalent timeframe as the church. Strategically positioned atop a precipitous mountain and enveloped by an expansive natural landscape, this church is a remarkable emblem for Georgia. Notably, the 18th century Georgian writer, Vakhushti Batonishvili, documented that during perilous times, invaluable artifacts from Mtskheta, including the Cross of Saint Nino, were safeguarded here. Despite the prohibition of all religious ceremonies during the Soviet period, the church continued to be a favored destination for visitors. Today, the actively functioning church is part of the Georgian Orthodox and Apostolic Church.

Trip from Tbilisi to Yerevan with Nik - We went on a private trip from Tbilisi to Yerevan with Nik. Nik is a very nice person and a very good driver (which is quite important since traffic in Georgia and Armenia can be crazy :-D). Nik owns a comfortable big car with WiFi access. We definitely recommend to book a tour with Nik.

Best Georgian experience thanks to Niki - Had booked Niki as driver and Guide during our weeks stay in Georgia. Would like to thanks nick for everything. His knowledge about all the places, his help to get the best restaurants, his eagerness to go out of the way to ensure that kids had the fun, his concern for us, well the list is long. He is a complete Guide plus driver. He ensures we learn about the country and the history, he helps in local language with the locals when needed.. to the extend that I have asked 4-5 of my family friend to be helped as Driver/Guide and never once did anyone have any complaint. Very highly recommended by us. If you not interested only in a driver/guide but someone who understands your need and does that extra mile to just ensure that you get the best, pls reach out to him Thanks Niki

Very relaxing holiday - It was our wonderful, emotional, family trip. Everything was very comfortable and interesting. My 9-year-old daughter remembers the stories and parables that Niko told during excursions. We plan to come again.

The ultimate guide you need for Georgia - Had the best tour of Tbilisi and the countryside. Niko my favourite guide showed me places I would have never discovered by myself. From the mountains of Kazbegi to the hilltops of Juta, villages in Kutaisi and seaside town of Batumi everything on the itinerary was absolutely incredible

Nika - The best guide - Nika was our guide when we landed in Georgia. From the time we landed till we went back, he made georgia a memorable experience. Firstly he gave his portable wifi to use when we were in car or visiting a destination. Helped us save money spending on sim and data. Secondly explained us significance of all the monuments and places. He would help customize your itinerary by stoping at spots on the way and give you the best experience possible. We had a great time with Nika and would recommend all.
