Our week-long horse riding tour to Glaciers, Rivers and Waterfalls was an adventure we'll never forget. The trails were a perfect mix of challenging and scenic an the horses were gentle and well-trained.
Staying in family-run guesthouses added a personal touch to our adventure. We were warmly welcomed and treated to delicious homemade cuisine. The hosts were incredibly friendly and went out of their way to ensure we had everything we needed.
I highly recommend this horse riding tour.

It was one of the best experiences I have ever had! We were riding beautiful horses, making lots of different traditional food on fire, trying homemade wine. Tamar and Mariam turned our small place to a little warm cozy camp, and we were so happy having nice conversations and preparing delicious food! They really put so much efforts to make it special. I'm so happy that I have such a fantastic memories now🙂 And so cool photos made by Tamar! I definitely recommend to try this unforgettable experience!❤️
Dear Mike,
Thank you so much for your review! It means a lot to know that your time with us was so memorable. We truly enjoyed having you and are always here if you ever want to return for another adventure. Warmest wishes, Tamar

We booked a two day tour in Borjomi. I would definitely recommend a trip to this region as the forests are beautiful and the vistas over the mountains are spectacular, but I would advise booking through a different provider for two reasons: the ill-humored and unprofessional guide and the terrible customer service.
*The guide*
Our guide, Suso, is not made for hospitality. When he arrived he did not greet us or care to look us in the eye. He was incredibly unhelpful, answering questions we had passive aggressively. For example, when we asked him how far it was while we were on our way, he asked “Why? Are you tired? How?”. He did not join us on a horse of his own but walked, making it feel as if we were children on a pony camp, and spent the entire time walking behind us while shouting at someone on his phone.
We felt as if this man did not care about safety, was (passive) aggressive throughout the trip and a thoroughly unpleasant person to be around, and definitely not someone who should work as a guide. When I expressed some of my concerns with the company, they themselves acknowledged that he was weird, which made me question ever more why they line him up for tour groups knowing that he isn’t a good fit for this line of work.
*Customer service*
We received a pleasant WhatsApp message a few days ahead of the tour informing us that we should pack food, water and sleeping bags. We did so, and arrived at the hut after the first day of riding… only to find out that there were no mattresses at the hut where we would be sleeping. Instead of undertaking any initiative to alleviate the problem, our guide just looked at us apathetically. We finally convinced him to call the company, only for him to call a friend instead and spend 20 minutes discussing his frustrations with that friend. Afterwards he finally called the company, but after 10 minutes it became clear he was making no progress and so I requested the phone. Having gotten Datia on the line, I was then subject to an attempt to gaslight me, with Datia telling me that it was written in the terms and conditions that we should bring mattresses ourselves, even though they had omitted to include it in the messages they had sent us about what to pack. They then tried to convince us that it was only natural to pack mattresses when packing sleeping bags, as if that is the most natural thing in the world. At that stage I wasn’t concerned about whose fault it was, but wanted a solution - whereas all our guide and Datia were doing was trying to cover their ass instead of trying to help us find a solution (like send up a car from the village, only a 30 min drive away). We found a discarded mat in the forest, and the guide found another in the attic of the hut, and so we had something to lie on, but notwithstanding the questionable hygiene of these mats they were paper thin and resulted in me and my wife having a terrible night’s sleep, having basically had to sleep on the floor. The next day we called the company to demand a refund for the terrible trip. The company acknowledged they should have provided mattresses and eventually apologized, but refused to provide a refund, saying that they considered the mats that we and the guide found to have been sufficient. And to add insult to injury, they offered us a 20% discount on the next trip we would book with them, knowing fully well we would never work with this tour provider ever again.
I can’t speak to the other tours they do, so perhaps the other guides are great. But I would avoid Borjomi because of Suso. But I can speak to Datia and the company, and the unwillingness to look for a solution and the panicky pointing of fingers suggest that this is far from a professional company, and I would urge any prospective customer to look elsewhere.
One positive point: the driver we had (Dima) is one of the nicest people I had the pleasure of meeting in Georgia.
Edit: after further discussion we received a 15% refund, and hence am revising my rating upwards to 2 stars.

We have updated our communication to ensure all guests are fully informed about what to bring on overnight tours.

We had a great trip with Everywhere.ge. Tamar was at all times very quick to reply for any questions and very service minded. The tour was extremely beautiful and we had a good driver. Only feedback for improvement would be, that it would great if there was an english speaking guide or driver available at the tour. We will be booking again with the company for future tours.

Eu e o meu companheiro escolhemos fazer 2 tours e apesar do nosso nível de iniciantes, foi uma experiência única que pretendemos voltar a repetir!
O passeio aos lagos em Mestia deu para tirar fotos muito bonitas e desfrutar da paisagem ao longo do percurso. No entanto, nesta altura do ano os lagos ainda estavam praticamente congelados e o caminho que fizemos é o mesmo por onde passam carros.
Por outro lado, o tour a cavalo nas montanhas de Racha com o guia Alex foi muito além das nossas expectativas! Percorremos trilhos bem no interior da montanha, onde mais ninguém vai a não ser o Alex, o seu cão (Bata) e os seus cavalos, que ele trata como família e se percebe claramente a profunda ligação entre eles. Encontramos enumeras pegadas de outros animais que ali habitam, marcas dos seus locais de repouso, que o Alex tão bem sabe interpretar e, ainda avistamos um urso. Apanhamos cogumelos enormes. Galopamos nos prados verdes repletos de flores, o que foi simplesmente extasiante! Em suma, foi o tipo de experiência a cavalo que permite desfrutar da natureza em pleno ❤️ Muito muito obrigada Alex

We had a wonderful week in Svaneti discovering the Caucasus and getting to know their rich history and welcoming people. Tamar was extremely helpful and the communication between us was excellent. Our guides were truly experienced and caring. The language barrier was a bit of an issue but nothing that we could not overcome with help of a translation app. It is also a good idea to travel with minimal luggage as you'll have to carry it all on your own horse and bulky bags will not only burden your horse buy will also get worn down by the friction with trees on narrow passes. If you still want to carry lots of luggage, make sure to split it into an even number of soft bags of equal weight to balance them. And finally, the horses of course. They were gentle and easy to travel with. I recommend everyone to feed them some apples and to try bonding with these exceptional beings. It made a big difference for me.

What an amazing trip. I've been hiking around Raja before, but on horseback was even better. The guide was so friendly and informative. We spent 6 days heading deep into the mystic mountains. We did camping and cooked on our own, as we wanted the full on experience, but other options available. Highly recommend.

We did the 1,5h tour. The guide was very cool and it was a lot of fun!
The only negative is that the landscape is not the most beautiful in the small tour. But I would recommend it to everyone!
Thank you so much for sharing your experience! 🌟
