It was a most unusual trip! If your goal is to truly understand a country, feel what it breathes and how it lives, then this is the place for you. You can learn about the love with which khachapuri is prepared in Batumi and the passion for tea in Gori. You will also discover the beauty of the abandoned city of Tskaltubo. In general, this amazing place has become even more wonderful thanks to our friendly guides.

Good afternoon. We went to Borjomi for 3 days. It’s so beautiful, beyond words. And the air is so clean and dizzying. We came on our own. We drank Borjomi and walked around the park. I advise everyone to visit Georgia, they are extraordinary, hospitable people They will show you and tell you about the history of Georgia. So, come to Borjomi and see for yourself.And enjoy nature and taste national cuisine.

We were so happy to find this city quest in Tbilisi! This tour is an excellent way to understand the city, know some interesting facts, spend time with a family, friends.This tour is very well organized. The team is friendly and responsive quickly, price is very reasonable. Defenetly will take the second city quest. Thanks a lot!The best way to really see the city, understand its history, get to know the people. In one of the locations, where we had to figure out which house was built later, the locals saw us and started telling the stories of each of their houses and it was wonderful! It’s a pity that there are only 2 quests and we’ll definitely go to the second one

Geotrend helped me to organise a work group activity and transfers in Tbilisi. Since my first contract they were very responsive, professional and friendly. They recommended a number of activities and when we decided on the best option for our group I was assured by Geotrend that it would be a very nice one. Everyone in our group was impressed with the venue, the food, the hospitality, the whole experience was amazing.Throughout our stay in Tbilisi, Geotrend were always helpful and made every effort to accommodate our needs.Many thanks to Geotrend team!

If you have already been on a tour of beautiful Tbilisi, then this quest will be the icing on the cake)Ancient and mysterious Tbilisi is waiting for you!

I really liked the quest tour - exciting and educational. Being not the first time in Tbilisi, I was able to experience the city in a new way. Interesting locations with their own history that are inaccessible to the average tourist. I recommend!

Excellent organization of the tour; already at the moment of discussing the program, the professionalism of the agency team is obvious. Everything was thought out to the smallest detail: wonderful guides in Tbilisi and Batumi, excellent hotels, comfortable minibuses, a well-thought-out program. The Geotrend manager was always in touch and promptly resolved all emerging issues; this was especially important for us - at all stages of the tour we felt a caring, attentive attitude. Thank you very much to the agency! I highly recommend Geotrend, a team of professionals that you can really trust with your vacation????????????

We took the Green Georgia small group tour in the summer of 2019. We had such a wonderful trip. I highly recommend this tour and this company. Our tour guide and driver were exceptional. Geotrend far exceeds others for their level of service. They were responsive to our many questions before the trip and sought our feedback and suggestions for improvement after the tour. If I travel to this region again, I would definitely book with Geotrend again.

Geotrend organised a 5 week tour of Georgia and Armenia for 6 of us. Based on our interests they developed an itinerary, arranged transport and accommodation. It was well coordinated and Geotrend were quick to respond to any issues that arose during the trip. We particularly enjoyed the homestays which were arranged for us. The drivers in both Georgia and Armenia were personable and drove safely. I highly recommend Geotrend.

Geotrend has arranged every one of our Georgia trips for past 3 years. We’ve gone skiing with them, toured Tbilisi and the famous hot sulfur springs, and they’ve taken us on wine tours of the countryside. Outstanding trips, we didn’t have to worry about anything. Lodging, transportation, guides, and Akmal’s personal service and dedication to us were top notch. We’ll be back again ... and again ... and...
