Georgia-ously Delicious
We discovered three delicious Georgian specialities (Imeretian khachapuri, khinkali and badrijani) by getting involved in their preparation. But above all, we shared a wonderful, convivial evening, chatting around the table and discovering Georgian culture and everyday life from the inside. The evening stretched late into the night, and we left with full stomachs and wonderful memories, so full, in fact, that we didn’t need to eat again until lunchtime the following day!

Super recommended!
We cooked and ate the most typical Georgian dishes together. Guidance and company were wonderful. It was a unique and fulfilling experience for several reasons: first, I had the opportunity to learn more about the food I had been eating during my entire trip (and the one I ate there was even the most delicious); second, even more importantly, I spent the evening with such a welcoming family, whom I will never forget. This is among the best memories of my journey, thanks to which I left Georgia with my heart full of joy and gratitude.

Recommended!
We cooked with the grandmother of the family and her grand daughter (and her friend). The grand daughter translated, and was also great at giving direction and helped. The grandmother starter the fillings, and the grand daughter finished with us. The whole family were very welcoming, sweet and knowledgable, and we had a great time. Both making the food and eating it. We made eggplant rolls with walnutfilling, khinkali and katchapuri. Everything delicious, and nicely accompanied by the grandfather's homemade wine :)
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It was a great pleasure to welcome you into our family and cook traditional Georgian dishes together. We are delighted that you enjoyed making khinkali, khachapuri, and eggplant rolls with walnuts—as well as our grandfather’s homemade wine. Your kind words mean a lot to our entire family. We hope to welcome you again in Kutaisi one day! Natia,Medea,Avto,Nutsa

Why this scores 73
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Traditional Georgian Cooking Class in Kutaisi: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kutaisi.
How much does Traditional Georgian Cooking Class in Kutaisi cost?
+
Prices start at $37 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Kutaisi usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Traditional Georgian Cooking Class in Kutaisi take?
+
Plan for about 2 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 Kutaisi is not rushed.
Is Traditional Georgian Cooking Class in Kutaisi worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 73 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 41 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Kutaisi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Traditional Georgian Cooking Class in Kutaisi?
+
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 Traditional Georgian Cooking Class in Kutaisi suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Traditional Georgian Cooking Class in Kutaisi?
+
Around 14 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 Kutaisi 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 Kutaisi and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Traditional Georgian Cooking Class in Kutaisi 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 Kutaisi 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 Kutaisi?
+
On Outty we rank every Kutaisi experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include From Kutaisi: Martvili & Okatse Canyons & Cave Guided Tour, Kutaisi: Martvili Canyon & Prometheus Cave, Georgian Lunch, Kutaisi:Chiatura Tour with Katskhi Pillar & Cable Car Experience. 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 Kutaisi?
+
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 Kutaisi?
+
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.

+
Included: Dinner. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Traditional Georgian Cooking Class in Kutaisi?
+
Located 2.5 km from city center. Take a taxi, rental car or bus #141 directly to the location. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Traditional Georgian Cooking Class in Kutaisi offered in?
+
