Couldn't asked for a better guide, my wife and I had a fantastic day. Tsotne is extremely personable and knowledgeable, not only about the specific places you will tour, but also about all the villages throughout. He is also a winemaker so learning the history of Georgia wine was amazing. No matter if your young, older, single, couple or a family, Tsotne will be the best guide. Would highly recommend Tsotne for a wine tour when visiting Georgia. Amazing Chacha also! 😊We were picked up on time and taken approx. 120km outside of Tbilisi , visited couple of wine makers and tested/ enjoyed some different wines.

We were picked up on time and taken approx. 120km outside of Tbilisi , visited couple of wine makers and tested/ enjoyed some different wines. On one of our stops we visited a farm which made its own wines with traditional methods , we tested their rather young but delicious wines along with a BBQ lunch they prepared. Same evening we were brought back to our Hotel in Tbilisi . Overall we enjoyed the day and recommend it to anyone.We had a superb fun day with David as our guide since he was very attentive, friendly, and knowledgable.

We had a superb fun day with David as our guide since he was very attentive, friendly, and knowledgable. Really appreciate the hospitality from Okro’s wine and family winery, especially the lunch with the family. Shumi winery also gave a nice different experience compared to the other two places. Will definitely recommend this trip to anyone coming to Georgia for wine tasting trip 😊What a fabulous day! Omar was a great guide who transported us in a comfortable vehicle.

Our guides Saku and Tsotne were excellent, really knowledgeable, friendly and the tour they have cultivated gave us a rounded insight into the region and the differences between boutique, local and factory wine making. The views, the welcoming and friendly hosts and the Family lunch at Vaxo’s were all phenomenal. Our driver / guide stopped off to allow us time to soak up the views and highlights along the way. We would all highly recommend Traffic Travel for this tour and we wouldn’t think twice about using them again for tours when we come back to Georgia.
