Borjomi, Vardzia, Rabati - The tour is a long tour due to the distance but it was excellent. All the locations are beautiful and different. Our guide, George, was knowledgeable about the history and a great guide. The driver was very good and safe. I would highly recommend this tour. Not suitable for children as it’s a very long day.

Great guide and many lovely views - Georgi 13 is a great guide. Very charismatic and has the ability to make people feel comfortable. I really liked how he put on a playlist with songs from countries the tourists were from. A small but a nice gesture. The trip was great. I especially enjoyed Vardzia.

Great tour - Tour was a long day. Timur was awesome. Started at 7am. Got to Rabati. He gave a history. However if you wanted to venture on your own you could. He gave meeting time and spot. There was 15 min free time. Not enough to see the whole castle. Then drove to Vardzia. Vardzia he gave tour. It's a maze, so don't venture off if youre not good with direction. Lunch after. Last was Borjomi. One hour there. Then drove back. Didn't get back till 10pm. Expect long day.

Self Guided - The driver is awesome. He is friendly, guided us and played wonderful music on board (i liked 90% of the song in his playlist). He literally and metaphorically carried this trip. I appreciate, Vladimer (the driver) efforts in doing so much for us. He made us enjoy the trip despite the fact we did not have all that we should’ve had. He allowed us to explore the areas at our pace. Some we took longer, others shorter. He stopped for us at the supermarket, midway from departure point. Also, he told us to tell him when we are hungry, so he stops over for lunch. Even at our destinations, he allowed us to grab food at ease. At the night, he stopped for us to eat at a restaurant. Although it was mentioned that there will be a guide, we did not have a guide. Also, it was mentioned that it will start at 09h00, but then I got a message that it is starting at 07h00. I am sûre they are aware that Vardzia is far, but they acted as if « oh we just realised ». As a heads-up, be prepared for the randomness in shift of plan. The locations are marvellous though. All three of them. Borjomi had the best weather; however, all three deserve your time. Everyone who was part of this trip was amazing. I am appreciative of them as we made the most out of the little resource we had. We were each others guides and friends.
