I had a request for an additional Cattle drive in Spring 2007 from Alvani to the summer pastures in Tusheti with the start at around 20th of May. Included in the adventure with the herders and the animals over snow, rocks and bright meadows are a couple of days in the capitol Tbilisi and in the wine-region Kakheti.
