    Beautiful day trip with many different sights

    We had a lovely day with Dimitri who took us to the monastery complex of David Gareja at the border to Azerbaijan. Even though we couldn’t see the main caves due to a conflict at the border the landscape and monasteries are worth seeing. Dimitri gave us interesting insights into the Georgian culture of today and the past. We had an excellent lunch and wine tasting in Signagi after a nice stroll through this small town. When looking for souvenirs we met a lovely lady who proudly showed us her picture in an issue of the National Geographic.

    Great day trip with Dimitry, who not only took us to the senic monastery and a lovely wine tasting restaurant, but very patentienty answered all our questions about georgian daily life. Highly recommended!

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much.

    Outstanding views

    A fantastic day with a really nice guide. We were pick-uped at hotel in the morning and spend almost 12 hour with our lovely guide Dido. He is a exellent driver and you can feel comfortable in the somtimes hysteric traffic. The landscape outside Tblisi is so beautiful and the view over the valley round Davidgareja is really amazing! We learned alot of geogian History. We walked for about 2 hours with amazing views everywhere. The village Signagi looks like a fairytail town. So beautiful with the mouintains in the background. We also visit a nice monastry. A fantastic day with a fantastic guide! We are so happy for this experince!

    Response from the operator: Dear Anna, Thank you for your warm words, keep coming and exploring Georgia.

    David Gareja was excellent !! Guide...

    <p>David Gareja was excellent !! Guide Dimitri from Trek Georgia was very very amicable, and warm without being intrusive, which I really liked. The 2-hour hike up the 750 meter mountain to see the caves and frescoes on the 6th-century monastery was worth it. Please be prepared for the expedition.</p> <p>Signagi is GORGEOUS. I plan to spend a night there next time !!!</p>

    Full day tour to Kakheti: David Gareja and Signagi Town: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tbilisi.

    How much does Full day tour to Kakheti: David Gareja and Signagi Town cost?

    +

    Prices start at $90 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Tbilisi usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Full day tour to Kakheti: David Gareja and Signagi Town take?

    +

    Plan for about 10 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Tbilisi is not rushed.

    Is Full day tour to Kakheti: David Gareja and Signagi Town worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 60 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Tbilisi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Full day tour to Kakheti: David Gareja and Signagi Town?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Full day tour to Kakheti: David Gareja and Signagi Town suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Full day tour to Kakheti: David Gareja and Signagi Town?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Tbilisi can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Tbilisi and add a light layer if any part of the 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Full day tour to Kakheti: David Gareja and Signagi Town start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Tbilisi within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Tbilisi?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Tbilisi experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Tbilisi:Evening Walking & Talking Tour with Wine & Boat Ride, Kakheti Wine Region Tour + 10 Premium Wine Tastings & Sunset, Tbilisi:Mtskheta,Jvari,Bazaar,wine tasting,Chronicles of Georgia. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Tbilisi?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Tbilisi?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
