I am a highly experienced guide. I am the one who will give you ultimate experience of the parts of Georgia you're visiting. I have an excellent command of English and since I used to be an English teacher I know how to talk to people with different levels of English. I am very knowledgeable about history, geography and current affairs. I understand human psychology really well which helps me deal with any type of traveler and make them happy. I am at the same time a super safe driver taking no risks when it comes to passengers safety. The car I use to drive my tourists is spacious, safe, and comfortable. I myself am a gourmet which means tourist are guaranteed to try only the best cooked Georgian dishes at best restaurants. As for my personality, I am open-minded, considerate, caring and has a great sense of humor. All in all you are sure to have a great time with me. I am a licensed guide. The license is issued by Georgian Association of Guides. I have a bachelor's degree in banking and master's degree in English Literature. Restrictions on entering Georgian orthodox churches - no photos, no hats, no shorts, no trousers for women, women should cover their heads with scarves. At church entrances there are baskets filled with scarves and waist aprons to cover your legs.

Vazha was an excellent tour guide with a comfortable minivan. He was very knowledgeable about Georgian history and I enjoyed our conversations about modern day Georgia. The drive out to David Gareja has beautiful views especially when you get closer to the monastery. We saw quite a few shepherds on horseback moving sheep with their dogs. You cannot see the upper part of David Gareji with the ancient paintings but the lower part was beautiful too. We also saw Ninotsmanda which was a pretty nunnery.

Vazha was absolutely fantastic as a tour guide. He was really friendly and chatty and was happy to chat and answer our very many questions! He is hugely knowledgeable. He brought us for a gorgeous lunch so if you go out with him you can trust his recommendations.

Vazha provided us with a very informative tour to David Gareja. He went above and beyond by providing us a lovely Georgian lunch at a local restaurant in Udabno nearby. He also organised a reservation in a very nice restaurant for us to see Georgian dancing whist enjoying a Georgian meal. Nothing seemed to be too much trouble. Vazha also provided us with much information regarding the Georgian way of life. Great day to a special place. Thank you. Jackie and Peter - Australia

Even though it was just a day trip, Vazha was excellent. He gave us great insights, was attentive, informative, and very easy going. The tour was well-organised and he made sure we had the most authentic experience possible and asked us about what we want to see, provided us with recommendations/insider about the city. Vazha is great! Highly recommend! :)
