Martvili canyon & Prometheus Cave group tour from Tbilisi

Beautiful scenery and very helpful and energetic tour guide.
You must bring some snacks and water with you though as the tour buses doesn’t stop for food or bathroom breaks.

Easy and efficient pickup from Tbilisi, with a rest stop included as well. Highly recommend doing both boat rides if you are doing Prometheus and Martivili Canyon. The guide could have elaborated more on information at each site, but the sheer convenience of the tour is why I give it 5 stars. They also were one of the few companies on TripAdvisor that weren't for a private tour, and were still offering group tours during the low season, which I really appreciated. If you are a solo traveler, I would highly recommend this tour.

We made a stop in Kutaisi, despite friends saying there wasnt much to see, because we wanted to visit the canyons and the gorges. Budget Georgia was recommended by the Wander Lush blog as the go to travel guide in Kutaisi.
We went to see them in their office right in the city, quite last minute and managed to secure a place for the tour next day.
It was well organised and our guide spoke great English and very knowledgeable about the area.

Both the caves and the canyons are now famous tourist sites, so you need to buy tickets and likely to be busy.
While, this may put off some people who are looking for a more rustic experience, highly recommend taking the time to see these two sites, if you are on your first time in Georgia. Because they are truly beautiful and an important heritage of Georgia.

When at the canyon, you can either do the hike to the view point from the main entrance, or pay for the 4 wheel drive that takes you to the entrance to the bridge. But, it is still a bit of a walk on the bridge and back to the 2nd entrance, so we were in the end glad we took the 4-wheel to get there.

Was never one for going with tour operators, but Budget Georgia may have just changed my mind, as it is such a good way to see places in a new country, especially when you are on a short trip with no

The places are nice (though touristy) but expect: a) A pretty large group - more than 20 people b)to wait in lines in all the three attractions because the tour agency for some reason does not buy the tickets in bulk and the whole bus waits in the line with all the other people c) In total, without food - expect to pay a minimum of approx. 90 Lari per person for entrance tickets, one boat ride and car ride (all mandatory, except the boat ride) d) Bring snacks because there is no time to eat lunch.

So, the tour ends up being quite pricey and the added value of the agency is unclear - you still wait in all the lines, pay for entrance tickets yourself. The only thing you get for the price is the transfer - I think it would be better to hire a driver or rent a car and just go there yourself, you can have more flexibility, stop for lunch, avoid lines etc.

Also, the company does not have the best client service - we paid 160 Lari per person for a round-trip from Tbilisi and in the end of the excursion asked to board a half-empty bus that was taking people to Batumi, instead of going back to Tbilisi. This would not have cost the company anything but they refused to allow us on the bus and instead drove the half-empty bus back to Batumi and a half empty car back to Tbilisi- not nice and certainly not eco-friendly as we had to take a separate car to Batumi the next day and of course did not get any discount for driving just one way from Tbilisi.

We had a great time exploring the natural sites of Georgia on this tour. The guide was really friendly and taught us a lot about Georgian culture and history. Everyone in the group thoroughly enjoyed themselves and even got to know each other a bit over a casual lunch in between sites. The trip was perfectly planned with unique, natural sites and I would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Tbilisi!

The tour was good and our guide was friendly and knowledgeable. The car was comfortable and the guide provided a lot of interesting information about the sites and the local culture along the way. Unfortunately we weren't able to take the boat ride on our trip due to the weather, but that's out of the hands of the tour company. Enjoyed the sites, lunch was great, smooth trip without any hassles.
