The tour was excellent and we had a great driver and enthusiastic guide. We enjoyed the itinerary. Except for one night, the food was outstanding. In terms of the places you visit and the food, you cannot go wrong. It won't hit every important site in the country on this itinerary, but it does a good job of giving a taste of the regions of Georgia. And if you happen to have Levan as a driver you will not regret it! Now for the "bad" news: First, and foremost, there is a lot of traffic on the roads. A lot a lot. As such, sometimes I felt the driving to dinner was too long. While the hotel was nice, maybe it is worth considering by Sakara to balance getting accommodation closer to the city center in the peak Summer travel period to reduce the travel times, because I believe most of the good restaurants will be closer to the center than where we stayed in Tblisi. The traffic in Batumi was just downright painful. It must be noted that this is August, so everyone is traveling, especially to Batumi. We certainly experienced that. And it was not totally unexpected as this is "normal". Next, for those few people who are looking for in-depth scholarly (ie. encyclopedic) descriptions by a PhD in history of the sites you see: we did not experience that. What we did get was a great driver who loved to provide personal insights about his country and the areas we visited and a guide who gladly described her personal experience and did not get upset when her guests messed up madloba twenty times.

We are very happy with Sakura. I sent in the tailor-made tour request and received answer quickly. Despite my countless requests to readjust the program, Magda was very patient and helped adjusting until we got a perfect itinerary to suit our requirement, despite many completes on our requests. I compared Sakura with 5 more tour operators in parallel and Sakura won with the best itinerary, service, and price. Everything was very smooth. During the tour we also had a great time. Our guide Aneta is just the best. Very sweet, knowleadgeable, service-minded ,and has a super polished manner. The driver Mr. Zaza was also very nice. Though he drove a bit wild sometimes, I guest all Georgian do so. We had a great time for 7 days and nothing at all we could complain about. I would recommend Sakura to anyone.
