What a great tour. Great value for money and lunch in a local Georgian house was the highlight especially the home made alcohol. Qeto was a great tour guide and make sure you request her when booking this trip. It’s a must do in Georgia. 🇬🇪

Wonderful people, wonderful rooftop view, wonderful breakfast. Anything you could ever need in a hostel. There is a common room, too. Great vibes and an unforgettable experience truly exemplary of Georgian hospitality. All front desk staff were great, but to the owner, if you are reading this, please promote Vakho, he is the best 💚 When I return to Tbilisi, I will stay here again.

This was my third stay at the Envoy Hostel in Tbilisi. And as always, this is Tbilisi's BEST HOSTEL. This time, we stayed at their private room (triple room) with an access to our own private balcony. Now they have a Rooftop bar with a lovely view with the same fantastic hostel vibes, and a wonderful community. The staff is accommodating and helpful, especially Magda who always helps me with a smile. I'll always stay here everytime I'm in Tbilisi. Can't wait to come back again.

I stayed here for four nights in one of their private rooms and took 3 tours. All amazing. In my trip through turkey, georgia, and armenia, I stayed at 3 hostels and Envoy Tbilisi was by far my favorite. It's not a huge hostel but I liked that and the location is amazing. Walking distance to many of the most popular and/or historic sites of Tbilisi. The fact that you look up on their terrace and are just staring at the Narikala Fortress is amazing. The room is comfortable and clean and you have a nice view out of the window. The shared bathroom on the 2nd floor only has one toilet and one shower but because it's not a big hostel it's not really a problem. I had some breakfast from the hostel once and it was pretty good! Prepare your legs while walking around though because the hostel is up a pretty steep hill so you get a good workout when you go to and from the hostel. As for tours, I took the day trip to Gergeti Monastery, the walking tour around Tbilisi, and the one-way day tour to Yerevan. The Gergeti day trip was unbelievable. Kato was our tour guide and she was awesome and super fun. There was fresh snow in the mountains which were basically completely white. In some parts, the snow was probably 4+ feet deep. When we tried to walk to the Russia-Georgia Friendship Monument, we literally couldn't because the snow was so deep so we had a fun but exhausting time trying to make it as close as we could. Because of the snow, we couldn't hike to the monastery but it was still fun taking the little van up to it. The views at the monastery aren't done justice by the photos you see online. Truly something to see in person. Oh also the lunch we had was absurdly good even though the khinkalis us non-Georgians made were really ugly. I couldn't eat as much as I wanted to because I got so full. Note: if you get motion sick in cars on windy roads, bring medication that works for you and sit towards the front. I felt quite sick at parts. But that didn't really detract from how great the trip was. The Tbilisi walking tour was a great way to get my bearings around Tbilisi and hit all of the popular sites. This tour was once again led by Kato and I was the only one on the tour so it was very personal. Besides being knowledgeable about the history and the sites, Kato also added some local knowledge that I couldn't get in a guidebook. Our weather for it was perfect. Could not ask for a better walking tour of the city. The last tour was the one-way tour to Yerevan. Never have I been on a tour that provided so much value in terms of sightseeing interest and practical travel value. My flight home was out of Yerevan so being able to travel to Yerevan while also taking in sights and enjoying delicious food was perfect. As before, I got a little car sick from the windy roads but it wasn't as bad as during the Gergeti day trip. I think my favorite part (besides the scenery) were the pastries we got towards the end of the trip. They were delicious. We had Christine as our tourguide and like, Kato, she was fantastic and provided so much value to the experience. All-in-all if you're going to Tbilisi, stay at Envoy and take some of their tours. You won't regret it. …

I looked for a good location and good advice for my stay in Tblisi. This was my first visit to Tblisi but was received as had I been an old friend. The room was comfortable and clean with a fabulous view of the city. The kitchen had all I needed to feel at home, and the staff gave me great advice on where to go and what to do. What more can you wish? Price was very reasonable compared to what I got! Next time I will be using Envoy's tour service. Everyone I talked to, said it is worth every dollar and every hour.

Recommend highly the day tour to Armenia arranged by Evoy Tours. We took part in it with my daughter and enjoyed a lot the nine hours long journey to the northern part of Armenia with its mountains and villages. Katie (Kato) was such a great guide with so much knowledge and good humour. The whole small group enjoyded the lovely atmosphere she ceated. Visited three monasteries in beautiful spots and had tasty lunch as guests at a home in a lovely village with beautiful garden. It was just perfect.

Dates of Stay: 13 June 2022 - 26 June 2022 Room Type: 4-Bed mixed dorm The 3-storey hostel has one of the best view of Old Tbilisi, also the location is great as it is close to many bars and restaurants including the cable car and the Narikala Fortress. Rooms can be private or 4-6-8 bed dorm. There are toilets and showers on every floor. Internet connection isn't the best but it's a great way to "digitally detox" and socialize with the other guest. The best place in the hostel is its outdoor rooftop terrace. This is where the fun part happens. You'll meet people from different part of the world, and get to know their story and start a new friendship. The whole staff has added value to the hostel, as they were so helpful in any way. Kudos to Envoy Tbilisi staff! I'll definitely be back at this hostel!…

It is easy to write this opinion for me. After visiting 81 countries in the last 35 years this is one of those places that you feel good. Marine and her team just help you fast and professionaly in any question you may have. At the same time is not a busy and noise hostel but not boring as well. So for me is just a great place.
