Last year, it was our first time we did a ski tour and Mikheil Nadiradze was a guide, who made our experience fascinating and memorable. He made sure to equieped us with proper equipment and he explained all details that helped us to raise awareness regarding ski touring and feel the all benefits of this process. I do recommend Mikheil as a great guide who can lead the tour in a fantastic maner.

Svaneti, Georgia, Guided 11 Day Splitboard Tour

Pre-Trip: Service from Explore-Share could have been better. What should have been a simple request with payments was badly dealt with. Taking automatic payments is a strange and unusual way of booking a guide. This was eventually dealt with though I had to argue for some time. Pre-trip support from guide could also have been better - getting an E-mail response on queries about the trip was not easy. I suggest a shared E-mail between the guide team would enable a better response capability if some guides are on the mountain etc. Although saying that, once in Svaneti we found even the most remote villages have Wi-Fi.... During the trip: Guide service was brilliant. Airport pick up was spot-on. Accommodation and food was great. There were two challenging aspects - the weather and the start of the Coronavirus issue. Guide team dealt well with both curve-balls (E.g. restaurants closing, and arranging slightly earlier return transport to Tbilisi). We had a great week, I would strongly recommend these guys to anyone visiting Georgia.

Wonderful people with precise knowledge of the wild nature of Georgia, I recommend you go whenever you want to enjoy the deep snow, hospitable people and virgin snow where you can see as much as you can see with your own eyes.

Svaneti, Georgia, Guided 11 Day Splitboard Tour

We had a fantastic trip in Svaneti with our guide Ilia who is a very professional and nice person. We were blessed by his kindness. He is a very patient, experienced and passionate person. Svaneti is a really beautiful region, wild and remote. I would advice staying more than a week as it takes quite some time to reach the mestia valley. The villages are vey harming and accommodation is quite good. There are thousands of ski tour possibilities and we were most of the time alone. Georgian people are great..and the food is fantastic ! I would definitively recommend the trip and our guide Ilia.

Mikheil is as exelent as on can be high on the top of the mountain. He is calm, but always aware of the circumstances, he's friendly but always ready to kick your ass if you stop respecting the mountain or other colleagues.

More info about Splitboarding in Georgia:

Situated in the very easternmost portion of Europe, tucked beneath Russia and above Turkey, Armenia and Azerbaijan, Georgia is an excellent winter sport destination. The country boasts outstanding snow conditions, the beauty of some of Europe’s highest peaks in the Caucasus mountain range, and a diverse and exciting culture. The ski, and subsequently, splitboarding scene has been rapidly developing since the 1990s. Now there are four ski resorts in the country: Gudauri, the most famous, Mestia, in Svaneti, Bakuriani and the most recent, Goderdzi, in Adjara. When you’re not out on the slopes, Georgia is famous for the laid back atmosphere of its people, a keen passion for food and wine. Georgia is an excellent destination to combine relaxation with adventure, one at a time of course
