Shorena and her driver, both very fluent in English, took us on an unforgettable day tour to Kazbegi, Georgia's highest altitude region. We first visited the beautiful old Ananauri Fortress and Church where we witnessed a Georgian wedding ceremony which was very special. Then we took a 4 x4 up to the Gegati Monastery, one of the most picturesque and photogenic in al of Georgia with Mt. Kazbeg in the background. Then we visited a local home for a delicious home-cooked meal and then took the 4x4 again up a steep and rocky road to a gorgeous waterfall trail. What a day! Highly recommended!
