arbroath55 Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 I noticed pics from Tibilisi on facebook from a girl I worked with 20 years ago when we were both with Forte. Anyhoo I got in touch and she`s now got her own travel company specialising in top of the range travel to Russia and Eastern Europe https://exeterinternational.co.uk/destinations/ Here`s her feedback You need at least one full day in the city. Stalin's museum at Gori is, In my opinion, a must, And one day out doing one of the wine experiences. If you just have time for tbilisi, try and allow 2 days extra. Tons of churches etc. hotels: radisson is a bit pricy, but probably where your team Will be staying (Germans were staying here last week) if you want a budget hotel, try and get into boutique hotel number 12 Restaurants : Tabla (my favourite) Azerpersha (fab) avoid the bread house Any questions for her ?

kumnio Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 5 of us found a wee wine bar last time, we pretty much camped out there, never seen any other Scots there. The wine was fabulous, outstanding quality at incredible prices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robroysboy Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 Im never drinking wine on a trip again. Ever. Better staying away from the cheap stuff and get a mid price range bottle. I used to be partial to some Port on away games, got a cheap bottle and was ill the next day. Got a mid range bottle another time and no issues what so ever. Its all to do with filtering out the impurities apparently, so i am told. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
