This was a wonderful area to visit and I'm glad I went, however absolutely nothing was included in this price. We paid admission fees to everything and even the wine tasting, if you wanted more than 2 different kinds was not free. The wineries were definitely for tourists and especially because we went during the grape harvest, I would like to have seen some of the smaller operations. Georgia has not been in the wine tour business for long, so I imagine these will improve. The restaurant we went to for lunch was very, very good and we stopped at some ruins that I loved. The guide was just OK and honestly did not give us anything more than if we had done this ourselves.

Amazing experience, i had a driver and tour guide who were absolutely wonderful. The Georgian countryside is on the most beautiful and the wines were delicious. I had the opportunity to stop and interact with the locals and even explored small church ruins. I rank this among my best wine tours. Thanks
