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.

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.

Soviet Era Brutalism and Socialist Modernism Buildings
Overview of your Tbilisi tour
If you are a fan of Soviet modernism you will love this tour. With its Soviet heritage Tbilisi is one of the best cities to visit. You will see all the finest examples of Soviet brutalism architecture and mosaics, together with unique sky-bridges hanging between tall apartment buildings. I grew up in Tbilisi and personal roamed in some of these abandoned buildings without realizing they would be any future interest of anyone visiting Tbilisi. But here I am asking you to go with me on this fascinating tour. Let us go back to the Soviet times together.

This was a brilliant tour and highly recommended for anyone who likes architecture, is interested in finding out more about the Soviet impact on the city or just wants to get a bit off the beaten track! Vazha was very knowledgeable, spoke excellent English, was a safe driver and very punctual. I booked the tour with 2 friends and we all really enjoyed it and felt we saw places in Tbilisi that would have been really hard to discover on our own. Vazha adapted the tour to our needs and the booking process was easy. He replied quickly to any questions prior to the tour and on the day provided an excellent experience. It was great value for money and one of the highlights of our trip to Georgia!

This was a great tour to some lesser known sites in Tbilisi and I highly recommend it to anyone interested in architecture as you will get to see some very unique and beautiful buildings. Vazha is a great guide too and is very knowledgeable and has a lot of interesting information to share. He is friendly and funny as well. He even helped me to organize another custom tour during my trip which was very helpful.

This was the first tour I did coming to Georgia - and I couldn't be happier about that! Vazha is an excellent guide, incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. Next time I visit Georgia, I will be sure to book Vazha for another tour. Highly recommended!

Vazha was an absolutely wonderful guide! He shared some truly unique parts of Tbilisi with us that we never would have found on our own. We had such a great time we booked a second trip with him to tour wineries which was the highlight of our whole visit to Georgia.
