Vardzia, Rabati & Borjomi: The 15 Best Tours

20 reviewed

The long southern day: a cave monastery of six hundred rooms dug into a cliff at Vardzia, a rebuilt Ottoman-era fortress at Akhaltsikhe, and Borjomi’s mineral park on the way back. There is a lot of driving in it, so the comparisons that matter are departure time, group size and price.

“Unforgettable experience. The guide, Giorgi K, was so friendly and welcoming. The 9 of us plus him felt like friends right away. It was a great and fun environment. We saw some truly beautiful sights and he gave just the right of information. He was lively the whole time and very smiley and helpful. Best person for the job for sure. I also want to note that I read reviews that said the driver wasn't safe, which scared me before booking, but I had the complete opposite experience and we were in rain and snow. He was careful and only.passed when necessary. I was comfortable and confident with our team.”

One long day from Tbilisi to Vardzia, Rabati Castle, and Borjomi mineral water, with cave churches, fort views, and spa-town time.

“The trip was pretty awesome! Our tour guide name was David, and he was very polite, patient, translated everything from English to Russian, funny and interesting. The tour is very long and we spent a lot of time in the car. So it’s not recommended to people who can’t handle long rides. The bus was very comfortable, with great WiFi and working air conditioning (we needed a lot of warming up as the weather wasn’t very nice to us). Our first stop was Borjomi where we hear the story of the place, bottling factory and tasted the famous water. Then we drove to Rabati, historic and very interesting fortress with…”

Group tour from Tbilisi to Borjomi, Rabati Castle and Vardzia. Air-conditioned ride, English guidance, timed stops, extra entry fees.

“Nice place to visit but I’d avoid going with this travel agency for sure. Non competent driver/guid. We were about to have accidents 2 times. We were two couples in this tour, we were all stressed during the road because of bad driving. We are also not sure if the driver was actually a guid , he didn’t tell us facts/stories about each attraction we visited. It was a strange not to have a professional guide for this price. He allowed other tour sales persons to keep coming and try to upsell us some non sense trip within our trip (ex electric car tour and 4x4 tour ..etc) Of course…”

A full-day private trip from Tbilisi to Paravani Lake, Vardzia, Khertvisi, Atskuri qvevri beer, and Rabati Castle, with pickup and English.

“OK, let me start by saying the sites we visited were fantastic. Vardzia was amazing and well worth visiting, as was the Rabati Castle complex. We really enjoyed walking around these. This could easily have been a 5* review, but for the driver. Bad driving, OK. Crazy driving, OK. Dangerous driving no. This was a long trip. The driver we had nearly crashed 5 times, including going off the road while playing with his glasses, driving at 120km/h with no hands on the wheel folding up a USB lead and passing a lorry with 10cm to spare. I do not expect to fear for my life on a tourist excursion.…”

We went skiing first and Paata was a person I will always appreciate as he taught me how to skii and probably will be a lifetime hobby now. We learned alot about georgia in depth and already planning our next visit. One of my favourite parts was visiting borjomi and trying out the natural mineral water. I definitely recommend this trip for anyone thinking about doing it especially with Paata.”

“Beautiful places and a big thank you to our guide Alex! We generally don’t go on planned tours because it feels too binding … just rushing around ticking off things on a list… you don’t really experience places you just see them! But since this was a last minute planned trip, we didn’t have time to research, and so we booked this trip and we got lucky because we had Alex!!! Excellent guide and an even better human! He explained about everything, the cultural and historical aspects and never rushed us, we even tweaked our itinerary our way! I would strongly suggest to get in touch with him early so…”
