Frequent questions

Is the price per person or per car?

Per car. A sedan takes up to 4 guests, a minivan up to 7 — nothing is charged per head, so the cost per person falls as your group grows.

Does the driver come with us to the sights?

Yes. Your driver stays with you for the whole excursion, walks you to the entrance of each stop and explains what you are looking at. He is a local professional driver, not a certified guide, so you get practical first-hand guidance rather than a scripted tour.

How do I pay?

Directly to the driver on the day, normally in GEL cash. No prepayment, no card needed, no booking fee.

How is the booking confirmed?

You send a request with your date and group size. OrbiTrip confirms within a few hours on WhatsApp and sends you the driver's name, car and phone number.

Can I change the stops or the order?

Yes. The order of stops is yours to change on the day. If you want to add a stop that is not on this page, write it in the request and we confirm the price before the trip.

What happens if a road is closed?

Your driver tells you before you set off and proposes an alternative stop of the same kind at the same price.
