Wine and food tours in Kakheti
Eight thousand years ago the first qvevri of wine was buried here, and Kakheti has not stopped since.
In short
At a winemaker's table negotiations finish sooner
A wine tour beats any restaurant: a private format, wineries picked for your taste, timing built around your programme, and a host who solves problems before you notice them.

How the price works

Wineries, tastings, transfer, lunch and the guide at real prices; our organisation fee is a fixed 10% of the estimate. One-day formats from Tbilisi, two-day ones with a night at a chateau.

Honestly:
September and October bring rtveli, the harvest. It is the best time and the busiest: small wineries need booking 4–6 weeks ahead.

FAQ
What people ask most
How is this different from a marketplace excursion?
It is private: your group only, wineries picked for your taste, timing built around your programme, and a host who solves problems before you notice them.
What about people who don't drink?
The route holds up without a glass: qvevri, food, Sighnaghi, churchkhela. Alcohol-free tastings — juices, lemonades, chacha-free pairings — are built in.
How many people can come?
From 10 to 100. Groups over 30 are split between wineries in streams so the visits stay intimate.
Can we take wine home?
Yes — we arrange purchases at the wineries and packing for the flight, and delivery to the hotel if needed.
