Great private day trip from Tbilisi - We had an amazing private tour with David. He was extremely professional, very knowledgeable, and shared so many interesting insights about the places we visited. David was also very attentive, helpful, positive and easygoing with a great sense of humour. By our request, he also organized a private visit to Château Mukhrani Winery, which was absolutely beautiful and very enjoyable. David was reliable, punctual, and truly went above and beyond to give us the best possible experience. Thanks to him, our private tour became the highlight of our trip, and we can highly recommend David to anyone visiting Tbilisi and its surroundings! Thank you, David!
