1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?
The wine tastings particularly at smaller producers2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?
1. The only place to exchange pounds is the banks whereas US dollars and euros can be exchanged in other places. Also the banks won't accept Scottish pounds - make sure you get Bank of England ones 2. If you need to get two or more flights to Tbilisi and back and are buying wine at Tbilisi airport, make sure they put it in a sealed bag otherwise you won't get it through security at intermediate airports, e.g. Instanbul3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?

1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?
The Cascasus mountains. Scenery amazing. Like stepping into a part of the world that hasn't yet been spoiled by mass tourism. The history of Georgia is fascinating. Georgia is predominately a christian orthodox country and religion stills plays a significant role in people's lives despite years of soviet rule. One can really experience serenity and spirituality in visiting some of the major cathedrals and churches.2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?
Maximum 3 days in Tusheti. Bring Lomotil with you. Travel light.3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?
WE hope the locals in Tusheti benefitted. Otherwise, cannot see a significant positive factor regarding environment or conservation.4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?
Excellent vacation. Really felt we were in a very different place with friendly people, fascinating and exotic sites and good fun.Holiday Reviews
