    Our tour was...

    Our tour was conducted by Mamuka, who is an excellent driver and an excellent guide. Unfortunately, we got rain in the middle of the day and that ended up making it impossible to do the Okatse Canyon. So we only made the Martvili Canyon and the Prometheus Cave. Even so, it paid off a lot, since the two attractions are absolutely unavoidable. The experience was unforgettable!

    Convenient and affordable, but some logistical issues

    Even our driver reiterated, that this is more of a "ride" then a "tour". But our driver Mamouka was kind, entertaining and informative, and if you have any questions about Georgia, he will answer them. He brought us a bottle of wine and bought us some local sauces and stopped for food and toilet. The round-trip journey is quite long, and since you leave Tbilisi so late, it is really not possible to see Okatse, if you are already visiting the Caves and Martvili. In Okatse, even if you just want to see the famous panorama/walkway, you either have to hike about 3 hours or hire a jeep for 100 Lari I think it was, to take you part of the way, and even then you STILL need to hike a little ways. And visiting the falls I was told takes even longer, so you need to devote several hours to visit this place. I think 9:00 departure for this tour is too late, as by the time you get to the caves, it's already afternoon. The Promethius Cave and Martvili Canyon are possible to see in the same day though. The cave tour (which is conducted by the cave's own guides), was very rushed though. What in the US would've been at minimum a 1.5 hour tour, was done in under an hour. The cave was very hot and humid. If you're not taking the boat, you need to take a bus back to parking lot and there was no sign of the driver or anyone to tell us if we're allowed to board. We were also told to wait OUTSIDE after purchasing our tour tickets. I don't understand why we couldn't wait inside the visitor center. Martvili was very nice, but I recommend doing the boat ride, otherwise, it's not really worth the entry fee. Apparently there are some bridges you can get to, over where the boats sail, but there were no maps to indicate where the trails lead. I felt the entry fee was a little expensive, so if you aren't planning to do the boat ride, maybe opt for another stop. I think for a private tour, the price was very good, and at Martvili, it was nice not being rushed or having to be at the mercy of someone else's schedule.

    The whole experience was...

    The whole experience was amazing! A full day trip with three locations - Prometheus caves, Okatse and Martvili. Our driver Mumaka was very friendly! He contacted us to decide time and location and made us feel secure and comfortable! Really recommend this tour in Georgia!

    Georgian Hospitality!

    The whole experience was unforgettable. We spent 3 amazing days with Mamuka, visiting canyons, Kazbegi and Kakheti. Mamuka and his wife also invited us over to a Georgian dinner at their house. Would definitely recommend and visi them once again!!

    Martvili + Okatse + Caves: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Martvili + Okatse + Caves cost?

    +

    Prices start at $79 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 Martvili + Okatse + Caves take?

    +

    Plan for about 9 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 Martvili + Okatse + Caves worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 55 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.1/5 across 8 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 Martvili + Okatse + Caves?

    +

    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 Martvili + Okatse + Caves suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 9-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Martvili + Okatse + Caves?

    +

    Around 3 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 9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Martvili + Okatse + Caves 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.
