A 2-day 4x4 safari from Kutaisi to Ushguli and Mestia, with a glacier hike, Svan tower views, and optional cable car.

“One of the best trips I have ever been on. During the car journey, we stopped at many beautiful viewpoints, each one more breathtaking than the last. The towns we visited were very pretty and we had a lot of freedom to explore, which was great. The optional horse riding was a great choice, it's an unforgettable experience and I recommend it to anyone who's hesitating. The guide who led us throughout the trip was very nice and we got on really well, I felt like I was going to the mountains with friends. It is important to remember that this involves many hours spent in the car, which may…”

“So unfortunate that the end of this trip ruined the whole experience. The drive was gorgeous and the driver very competent (the road is not easy!) however, we only booked a tour to Ushguli and back. Upon reaching Ushguli the driver asks my husband and I if we would also like to go to a glacier and of course we asked how much extra and he said 100 gel for the car. There were 2 other couples (6 of us in total). He never told the others what the price was for the additional visit to the glacier. After returning to Mestia, the driver never asked the other couples for…”

4 days hiking Svaneti from Mestia to Ushguli, UNESCO villages, glacier walks and waterfalls, guesthouses, meals, English guide.

“George is both a pro and a fun guy to be around. We checked about doing the hikes by ourselves, but having George around definately enriched our experience with his knowledge and selecting for us the best routes to go to the hikes and back. The hikes themselves were challenging enough while not being too difficult. The main problem we ran into was rain something I was not prepared enough for.”

“The tour overall was great. Gogi, our driver and guide, was magnificent. Accommodating and friendly, answered our questions and made the trip pleasant. However, more info could have been provided before the tour began. I had to reach out to the tour operator in order to find out that we were supposed to find our own accommodation in Mestia. It was also not until the day before the tour (after we have arrived in Georgia) that the operator messaged us telling us to bring boots and warm clothes. This could have been relayed ahead of time, when we were still in our home country packing, not the day before.”
