About this tour
This is a planning call about where to actually eat khinkali and lobiani in the city, built from spots I go back to myself. We compare a handful of corners rather than a long list. It works entirely by discussion, with no camera walk.
I describe each option and what makes it different, then help put a short route together based on where the traveller is staying. We finish with a written shortlist sent afterwards.
It suits anyone who wants a shortlist rather than a guessing game, and travellers happy to eat on their own once they know where to go.
Included
- A 45-minute call with a local guide
- Honest tips on where to eat, stay and what to skip
- A short follow-up note with every place mentioned
Not included
- Bookings made on your behalf
- Phone or data charges from your provider
Itinerary
-
Hello, and what you want to know 5 min
The guide calls you and asks what you are after: planning Tbilisi, recommendations, or just questions.
-
Comparing neighbourhood spots 15 min
I describe a few specific corners around the city known for khinkali and lobiani, comparing what each one does differently, before we settle on a shortlist together.
-
Building a small eating route 15 min
We put the shortlist in order by neighbourhood, so the traveller can plan a short route between two or three spots without doubling back.

Your questions 7 min
Ask anything that is still on your mind, there is no fixed script.

A written note after the call 3 min
You get a short follow-up message with everything mentioned, so you do not have to remember it all.
Good to know

- No app to install. You answer when the guide calls, or join a video call if you would rather.
- Times are shown in Tbilisi time, so check the time where you are before you book.

- Have your questions ready, though there is time to think of more as you go.
Questions about this tour
What will the call cover?
The guide talks you through Tbilisi: where to go, what to eat, and answers to whatever you ask.
What happens if the call drops?
The guide will try you again straight away.
Can I ask the guide questions during the session, or is it a fixed script?
Anything, any time. Sessions leave room for your own questions throughout, not just at the end.
Do I need to buy or cook anything?
No. This is a conversation: the guide describes the dishes and where to find them, so you can try them yourself whenever suits you.
