About us

We're locals.
This city is personal.

Live Tbilisi exists because we got tired of watching visitors see the wrong Tbilisi — and leave thinking that was the real one.

Why we started

We grew up here. We know which courtyard hides the best carved balcony, which family bakes bread in a clay oven the way it's been done for generations, and which viewpoint is worth the drive at exactly the right hour.

And for years we watched tour buses do the opposite: herd thirty strangers past the highlights, forty minutes here, photo stop there, lunch at whichever restaurant pays commission. Visitors left with photos of Tbilisi — but they never actually met it.

So we built the day we'd give our own friends: private, unhurried, planned to the hour but never rushed by it. One group. One guide. A driver waiting between every stop. Tables reserved before you're hungry.

What we believe

Four rules we don't break — they're the reason the day works.

Private means private

Just your group, 2–6 people, never merged with strangers. The pace, the stops, the conversation — all yours. That's not an upgrade; it's the only way we operate.

A day, not a checklist

Anyone can point at a monument. We build an arc — morning light to dinner table — where every stop earns its place and nothing feels like ticking a box.

The locals' Tbilisi

The café where we actually eat. The family food tasting — cheese, fresh bread, churchkhela, honey — from people we know by name. If we wouldn't go ourselves, it's not on the route.

You never wait

Driver between every stop, reservations made ahead, timing handled. No taxis, no maps, no queues, no "where do we eat?" at 8pm. You just live the day.

Our promise

We keep this small on purpose. Every day we run is a day one of us personally stands behind — the same guide from the first hello to the dinner table, the same care whether it's your first time in Georgia or your fifth.

Ask us anything before you book. Tell us what you love — food, photography, history, slow mornings — and we'll shape the day around it. If something isn't working mid-day, we change it on the spot. That flexibility is the whole point of private.
