Great tour! Great service!
I highly recommend booking with Georgian Holidays! My private one day tour of the wine region was fantastic. 'K' was a great guide - extremely knowledgeable about Georgian history & wine & he was fun! Communication & service from the company was excellent as well.

Perfect must-do experience
I have really enjoyed the tour. The guide was the nicest ever. Such a fun experience, and the wine is gooooood!
Response from the operator: So thankful for your time for this wonderful review! Hope to host you again in Georgia next time!

Wonderful day wine tasting outside Tbilisi
A super nice day wine tasting and discovering the history of wine in Georgia at the museum... I used to think that French wine was the best in the world... Georgian wine made me change my mind about this! It was overall such a well organized trip, the guide was absolutely lovely and super knowledgeable... Highly recommended!
Response from the operator: Thank You very much for such a nice attitude and wonderful review! Thanks!

Manana was a walking enciclopedia
Thank you for a beautiful day! It was very interesting ... I loved the wine museum and I want to congratulate again our host from Telavi! I suggest to the company to create another tour with just one visit to the winery ( for me should be that with the museum, or alternate the wineries) and try to visit both, Batoni Castle and Tsinandali Palace, in one trip. I was in two different trips to see both objectives. Thank you Manana and I hope wi'll meet again. Great driver with a beautiful dog.
Response from the operator: Thank you very much! Your feedback is sent to your guide. Please, come back to Georgia!

Fantastic wine tour
We spent an amazing day touring around the Kaktheti region, visiting a local museum, having a delicious home-made lunch with a local family, visited several great and well-known wineries and learnt a lot of information about the traditional wine making quevri process. Our guide was awesome and provided an insight into the Georgian culture and history. The travel was very safe. The wine tour is really recommended, all the communication is truly professional and very quick, there was no problem at all.

Private Wine Tour to Kakheti from Tbilisi: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tbilisi.
How much does Private Wine Tour to Kakheti from Tbilisi cost?
+
Prices start at $107 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 Private Wine Tour to Kakheti from Tbilisi 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 Private Wine Tour to Kakheti from Tbilisi worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 64 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 11 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 Private Wine Tour to Kakheti from Tbilisi?
+
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 Private Wine Tour to Kakheti from Tbilisi 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 Private Wine Tour to Kakheti from Tbilisi?
+
Around 4 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 Private Wine Tour to Kakheti from Tbilisi 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 Kakheti Wine Region Tour + 10 Premium Wine Tastings & Sunset, Tbilisi:Mtskheta,Jvari,Bazaar,Chronicles of Georgia & Wine Cellar, Day Trip to Kazbegi and Gudauri. 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.
