Tour & Activity Scams in Tbilisi

Unlicensed Wine Tour Operators Charging Inflated Prices

Unofficial wine tour operators approach tourists near Metekhi Church and around Shardeni Street, offering Kakheti wine region tours at premium prices (80-120 dollars per person), then deliver substandard experiences—cheap wine, unsafe vehicles, skipped promised vineyards, or aggressive upselling of expensive bottles. Many do not have proper licensing or insurance.
