The food tasting tour was great! Georgian food is awesome and the explanations by the guide - Levan - made it even better. The tour finishes at a wine bar owned by the guide's friend and this was just the perfect end to the tour. Overall, highly recommended - the price is good, the food and guide are great.…

I have been on dozens of free walking tours around the world and have traveled to 134 countries— this was honestly the worst free walking tour I have ever experienced. Our guide, Levan, really didn’t act like he wanted to be there. He was very easily distracted with his phone ringing and dogs barking and often didn’t finish his stories because of these distractions. He spent 6 minutes complaining to the group about a client that just called him and wanted a tour the following day to somewhere they do not offer. Levan was also “training” another tour guide, who was much more excited and enthusiastic, however Levan always shot down his energy and also awkwardly corrected his facts every few words he would talk. We learned almost nothing in the 2.5 hour tour. Even in front of the oldest church in Tbilisi, Levan said he doesn’t know anything about religion and the only difference between Orthodox and Catholics is the way they cross their hands and stand— seriously?? We honestly couldn’t believe how bad it was. Maybe he was having a bad day, but this was our honest experience …

Response from Levan G, Guide at Tbilisi Free Walking Tours
Responded Sep 14, 2021
Hello Jared I can understand you not satisfied with my tour, which is okay, but terrible? I think i don't deserve it! Also i think not everything true what you wrote, but it is your opinion and that fine. 1. Yes there was many street dogs and they was barking lot, what usually very distracting for the guide and what the guide can do? 2. Yes i got one call and sorry if i answered it and after just make some comment about it, little bit louder :) 3. It is very sad if you didn't learned anything on the tour because how i know, other people satisfied with tour, but that okay! 4. It is general tour of old town and not a religious tour, where they talk a lot about differences between religions and so on. I said im not very religious and I will talk about from point of history and just mentioned some differences... Next time if you have more questions about religion ask to the guide. 5. Yes there was guide and i trained him, by the way not only him, many others and his is better then me! Im happy with that to honest! I corrected him twice and i mentioned in the start of the tour, im going to do that on the way, it is a usually way how we do it with new guides! 6. I really sad you had a bad experience with me and thanks for honest feedback. It is always important to get feedback bad or good, which helps to improve things, but terrible to much i thin. Also we know, not everyone will like us or our tours. we just trying our best! Thanks and next time try other guide. Thanks for your feedback!

I would highly recommend booking a walking tour with these guys. Our guide for the Old Tbilisi Tour was Nika. Despite the heat, which was exceptional today, Nika provided us with a great tour of the city which allowed us to understand some of the history, see parts of Tbilisi away from the main tourist areas and obtain some great recommendations of other places to visit. I am looking forward now to the other tours that I have booked with this company.…

This tour guide is amazing. We went to the backstreets of Tbilisi tour and he gave us a detailed multi-cultural history filled overview of the interesting, but low-key part of the city. At the end he gave a whistling concert. Excellent English.
