review 30 May 2022

1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your vacation?

Almost everything in Svaneti - the scenery, the towers, the walks and watching the film 'Dede' in the world's cosiest cinema the time in Vardzia was a very close second

2. What tips would you give other travelers booking this vacation?

Read the instructions! It is partly a walking vacation, so those who don't want to walk may have to amuse themselves. And take less luggage! The guide and driver were left to carry cases up and down stairs.

3. Did you feel that your vacation benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?

At the ethnographic village near Zugdidi and at Vardzia we felt as though our visit benefited new enterprises combining farming with tourism. We were happy to stay in family-owned accommodation wherever possible. But driving more than 2000km cannot help the environment.

4. Finally, how would you rate your vacation overall?

One of the best. We enjoyed almost everything. The guide in particular was outstanding. We are hoping to return to Georgia and to visit Armenia.
