Stella Stevens

I am not a very talkative person, but I want to say it: It was a very interesting and well-organized tour, with a very good guide. The tour included so many places and all of them were so impressive. I don’t think that I had enough of this country, I see there is much more to explore, so much to know about the come back the next year to discover more of Georgia!

I am Sam, I traveled to Georgia a month ago. I love archeology and I am traveling a lot around the world to discover and explore the countries. Seems like Georgia has a lot to hide with its great history. I have visited so many places and have seen so many interesting things, like very old churches, archeological museums, even the dinosaur footprints in Sataplia Nature Reserve! The tour was very interesting, I came back to my country with lot of impressions. Thank you!

Samuel, Julie and Emma

My wife and I are just back home after travelling for so long. We haven’t had a chance to write anything as we're traveling to South Korea after this trip. Now we are back to London and can finally share our thoughts and memories from Georgia.
Hotels:
Our hotels were perfectly chosen by Tatev and had all the facilities. The locations were quite good and gave us a lot of freedom to explore the cities on our own after the daily tours.
Guides:
Having the right guide affects the whole trip, after travelling to so many countries we are now sure of this. Especially for an archaeological trip, this is the most important thing. We had the best guide one can ever think of. Katie was with us from the beginning of the trip until the end. She was so professional and knowledgeable, we had so many questions every single day and she answered all of them with such enthusiasm and professionalism.
We wank to thank Mygeo trip for such an amazing trip and memories!
