I like the fact that the tour operating company contacted us regarding the pick up time and location, via whats app as soon as we made the payment online on - viator.com , this made us feel very secured and relieved even before we reached the city.
The tour guide - Ms Meena was very informative and she spoke in Russian, Georgian and English .
She filled us in with information about the city of Tbilisi as we moved out of the city towards Kazbegi.
We were given enough time to move around a place of interest and take pictures, make memories.
She also guided us about the local cuisines of Georgia and what to eat while we stopped for lunch.
The view along the drive was picturesque and beautiful, and makes you ponder on Gods wonderful creation and the work of his hands.
However I dont remember seeing the great Kazbegi mountain. While we waited for those who wanted to go up the Gregeti Church ( for an extra 15 lari by 4x4 jeeps ), we were parked below in a parking zone not knowing that , it was the closest we would get to Kazbegi mountain.
It was not a great site of the mountain, and I’m not even sure which was the kazbegi mountain.
This information was not communicated to us. Or maybe she mentioned it in Russian or Georgian and forgot to mention it in English
Therfore my only regret on this tour is- I took the Kazbegi tour, went all the way there and still never really saw the great Kazbegi mountain.
I thought after Gregeti Church we would go to Kazbegi mountain which was in the order of the itinerary on viator.com.
Other than that everything was well organized by the tour operators.
