An Unforgettable Experience! Our family had an incredible time with Megobari Tour! Georgia is a beautiful and welcoming country, and this tour made our trip absolutely unforgettable. Our guide, Teona, was amazing! She introduced us to traditional Georgian cuisine, and one of the highlights was tasting the delicious Nazuki bread. She also took us to a stunning place called Borjomi, where we drank natural mineral water and enjoyed a peaceful walk through the park—it was breathtaking! After that, we headed to Bakuriani for skiing, and thanks to Teona, everything was smooth and enjoyable. She helped us with equipment rental and ski lessons, making the experience even more fun and comfortable for the whole family. Beyond the tour itself, Eva (Megobari Tour) showed great care and attention, assisting us and providing guidance for our trip back home. Their dedication and hospitality were truly exceptional! 10/10 – We can’t wait to return! Patricia
