We took three tours from this firm and this one was the first. We were promised water in the car, a Russian-speaking guide, the said cave and canyon, as well as a drive to Kutaisi, see-photo of the old town there and also that we would be brought to a good place to eat lunch. We were also told it was a rare tour, so it was only possible to go on a certain day.
Unfortunately, half of what was promised turned out to be shreds:
There was no water. Even though the firm had one, the driver just didn't care and didn't take it.
'There was no guide, there was only a driver who didn't really speak Russian or English, he was just driving from point to point, without any storytelling or communication.
-Prometheus Cave had its own guide entering the ticket
'Also, the driver just missed Kutaisi, we drove through it clear on the outskirts because the road led to the canyon and cave through it, no stops, no center, nothing.'
'The same thing about lunch, when after the canyon he informed us that we were going back to Tbilisi, we asked him about lunch, and he briefly thought and asked around and suggested there and lunch in the only place, with lousy food and a pretty high price tag.
To be fair, the other two tours were organized as promised, apparently because they are daily and popular, which does not negate the ugly organization of this particular tour.
