[@bozenamajtyka356]

Hi guys, wow, I've explored Georgia before you🙃🙂😅it was one of the most amazing journeys I and my husband have had❤️Batumi is holiday, we 've finished in Batumi, for sure you're planning to go to Kazbek, visit beautiful Tbilisi and enjoy wine tasting ❤️ unforgettable memories, great people, great country 🥰

[@TwoMadExplorers]

Such a cool place!❤️❤️

[@Georgian2go]

I'm Georgian but having lived most of my life in Germany, I still haven't made it to Kazbegi (hopefully in March though).

[@oleseemann3457]

what an underrated beautiful country

[@trollsnotwelcome7805]

I honestly need to go there I just love the look of it. Thanks for showing us around 💜🤗

WELCOME TO GEORGIA! კეთილი იყოს თქვენი მობრძანება საქართველოში!

[@izabela1961]

It's good to travel to places which you do not know so well and discover with your own eyes. Georgia is quite popular among Polish tourists, I haven't been but I was told by other people that it is an extremely nice, unspoilt country with hospitable people, great nature, huge mountains, good food and wine! Lots of Georgians work in Poland, many taxi drivers from Bolt or Uber come from Georgia. They also run restaurants here.

[@TwoMadExplorers]

Yes absolutely! ❤️ it’s a great place so far!

[@Georgian2go]

so is Poland for Georgians...

[@YvvS]

Hey! Just "walked" into this movie, welcome to Georgia! Very nice how you guys explore Batumi without any "knowledge", with all respect, very funny to see! I'm a Dutch guy, Living in Georgia with my Georgian wife for 4 years now, so I have had the privilege to explore Batumi and the rest of Georgia with a local guide.👌 We started a Family Winery and are building a full Marani and are making beautiful honest and traditional wines in Kakheti region. If you will come to this region and would like to do some wine tasting or get a local tour, my wife loves to tell all about beautiful Georgia and their many beautiful traditions, history and culture! And I could tell you more about my Dutch view on things here ;) Gagwimarjos!

[@TwoMadExplorers]

Wow that sounds amazing!! We absolutely would love to do that! Thanks so much for watching ❤️ Luke & Naomi

Hello guys will be worth to visit market (bazar) where locals selling fruits, chees vegetables, home make vino, chacha, also fish market, where you can buy fresh see food, and in next door restaurant they will cook for you. Enjoy. Greetings from Cambridge

[@TwoMadExplorers]

We will definitely check this out!

[@INTUITIVENORSK2303]

This is awesome guys! I'm a new subscriber here & I am soooo glad that you've both visited Georgia, as it really is a stunning country, yet, still very underrated globally. A country possessing wonderful & friendly peoples, so full of very rich history, such beautiful architecture & culture, plus so much more! I myself am part Georgian, although I've never visited, but have long wanted to & some day in the near future, I certainly will. Thanks for sharing & for informing/educating those watching this video. Here's wishing you both more happy & enjoyable travels, wherever the road may take you.

[@TwoMadExplorers]

We are sure you will love Georgia 🇬🇪

[@SeanSeesAdventure]

I haven’t seen the entire video yet, but overall I think you did a good job. I like your price comparisons for shopping at the markets and cost of living. Thanks.

[@TwoMadExplorers]

Thank you so much!

[@trollsnotwelcome7805]

Such an artist city. Love it 💜

[@CabroAR]

Lovely content! Saw on another vlog that the wheel on that building actually never worked

[@TwoMadExplorers]

Thank you 🙏 ❤️

[@blubrydarka2028]

Amazing country. I have to go back there in the future

[@TwoMadExplorers]

Yes! Very beautiful place for sure

[@yb8080]

That "song" they were played at the clock tower in the Piazza, was the Georgian National Anthem, it plays several times a day.

[@blubrydarka2028]

I'm surprised what you said about the prices. I was there 3 years ago. We paid less than 10 euros for a dinner for 2 with alcohol. For a taxi 7h 300 km less than 25 euro. The greatest treasure of this country is people. They are very friendly and helpful. While in the restaurant, we hit a birthday party. While waiting for the order, the Jubilarian brought us a plate of food and a jug of homemade wine. When they found out that we are from Poland, they were our friends right away. Btw your apartment its next to Kaczyński st polish past president

[@michaelclass3139]

Hi., nice vid. and have a good time in Georgia. Try a nice bottle of georgian wine. You will enjoy it. All the best. 😁😋

[@TwoMadExplorers]

Thank you!! Yes, we are very excited to try the Georgian wine 🍷

[@lestatdelioncourt5550]

For recommendations I would say first you must check Batumi botanical garden and nearby places like Green Cape ('Mtsvane kontskhi') and Tsikhisdziri

[@TwoMadExplorers]

Thank you for these great recommendations!

[@rarotonga-paul]

Georgia and Armenia are both worth visiting and they are really popular with the Polish tourists. I have wonderful and unforgettable memories from both countries. I have not been to Batumi, but I have been to Sokhumi, Pitsunda and Gagra on the Black Sea in Georgia. Tbilisi and Mccheta/Mtskheta, Borjomi, Gori, Kutaisi are also worth visiting. Enjoy your stay in Georgia, warmest wishes and greetings from Poland, Paweł and Gosia 🌞 🧡 🌤 🌹 ⛱ 🌅 🧡 😊 🌞 🌟 🍀 🇵🇱 🏝 🏖 🌅 🧡 💙

[@TwoMadExplorers]

Sounds amazing! Thank you 🙏

[@Georgian2go]

Polish, Lithuanians, Ukranians and Georgians are the loudest to protest against Russian injustice (not just for themselves but also for each other). -> I have fond memories of Zakopane and Krakow, where I used to go skiing with my Family. (Anna)

[@alfredoar8906]

Wonderful Georgia..! Where is a good frugal place to stay in Batumi ? Even if it is the residential areas ? For a month or similar.. but NO Airbnb Thanks

[@Joshdyisdifh]

Batumi is like a mix of Gold Coast, Miami and Las Vegas.

[@TwoMadExplorers]

True ❤️

[@maraltravelworld6307]

Are you guys coming to Kazakhstan? Have the best journey 🎉🎉🎉

We hope so! Soon! 🇰🇿

You should try adjarian khachapuri, cheese boat, popular dish which is from that region

[@TwoMadExplorers]

Oh that sounds delicious!

[@Georgian2go]

@@TwoMadExplorers I highly recommend Davidsbeenhere's video on Batumi.

[@normroth6221]

The mini ferris wheel, built into the tall building you shared with the viewers, is just decorative. It doesn't work. Also, the structure you showed early on with the ball on top, is the alphabet tower. Those are Georgian letters being displayed.

[@Georgian2go]

i saw in a documentary that it works...so it's not just decorative. Maybe decorative just for the moment but they definitely want to make it an attraction

[@erkanbildik]

Bargain well in hotels and hostels in Georgia, they say the prices are high on purpose.

[@LM-he7eb]

I want to travel to Georgia so bad

[@informationcollectionpost3257]

I have watched a young Russian digital nomads video on Batumi. Batumi is more expensive than the rest of Georgia and most Russians go to the smaller neighboring cities near it to escape the high prices. It is the warmer part of a cold country that exists in the higher elevations of the Cacaus ( spelling is ???) Mountains.

[@TwoMadExplorers]

Nice! Thank you 🙏

[@elizabethmatraszek630]

Nice place

[@TwoMadExplorers]

Yes!! ❤

[@lestatdelioncourt5550]

Most young Georgians speak good English so there shouldn't be a language barrier. Btw Trabzon which u mentioned above was part of Georgia and there are Georgians living there even now. P.s. Get ready for frequent rains

[@repla2992]

Trabzon was a part of Georgia? When? 5.000 years ago? Batumi was also a part of the Ottoman Empire back in time.

[@lestatdelioncourt5550]

@@repla2992 But there are no native Turks in Batumi, however there are up to 2 mln native Georgian speakers in Turkey.

[@repla2992]

@@lestatdelioncourt5550 They were the Muslims from the Georgian ethnicity who had to flee to Türkiye after the war with Russia. We also had Georgian origined ministers and even in other professions who became well known in Türkiye. They are a part of us.

That Ferris wheel building supposed to be university, wheel alredy was tested by president and university studens, so its working😊 but after new president this idea was "vanished" there's nothing in it now

[@Apistoleon]

Actually the black sea region of Türkiye is very rainy and green! It has an oceanic climate. It does not have Mediterranean climate at all! Also the myth of "golden fleece" passed in Colchis. Colchis was a land in black Sea region of Türkiye and Georgia. People of the black sea region of Türkiye and Georgia are connected ethnically since ancient times. People of Greece and Türkiye are connected as well!

[@giopa110888]

you are talking about Lazs, which is a Georgian sub-group living in historical Georgian lands of north-east Anatolia now part of Turkiye. Colchis was a Georgian kingdom in ancient times (BC), while Turks arrived in Anatolia in the middle ages. writing this because from your comment it sounds like Colchis has something to do with Turkiye, which is not true.

[@serdarsevinc2454]

Turkish contactor companies build the modern buildings in batumi, other parts of the Georgia are not so modern.

[@ryan_ryan]

@@bg2459 other cities of georgia doesn't looks modern like batumi

[@datodato4560]

Taxi driven was speaking his point of view.with is wrong, we have 5 million viewers in batumi whole year. I have alot of irish friends, they have been spending summer with me in georgia for 6 years now. I think passport guy was checking if passport was fake, cuz a lot of people try to sneak out with fake ID, he also may be checked on drugs. foreigners trying to import some drugs.
