Frequent questions

Is the price per person or per vehicle?

Per vehicle. A sedan seats 4, a jeep 6, a minivan 7 - nothing is charged per head, so the cost per person falls as the 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 rather than a certified guide, so you get practical, first-hand guidance and no 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 and no commission.

Can I change the stops?

Yes - add or drop a stop when you book and our engine recalculates the price before you confirm.

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.
