A few comments about renting a car from Tamaz.
In general, so far so good, the situation is rather cloudless. We met, talked, the car was not Forester 2015, but XTrail 2005. I did not argue, the class of the car is a little higher, everything is on the move, ok. The agreement, however, is only in Georgian. They explained to me about the territories that cannot be entered, about the rest of the dirt roads Tamaz said that it is possible to drive. Go.
The problems began when, on one such road (in Khevsureti, not prohibited by the Khevsureti road, specifically - near the village of Roshka), I, this happens when driving on dirt roads, broke through the oil pipe of the gearbox. I ran over a stone, did not even notice much, but the oil soon leaked out and the car stopped. I called up with Tamaz, he connected the insurance, everything should have been ok. Mountains, it was getting dark, we were picked up by car from the hotel where we were staying. At the request of the insurance company, I called the police to file the damage. It turned out that he had to pay a fine of 250 GEL for leaving the scene - Tamaz did not report this. OK.
Then I warned him that the car was in a hard-to-reach place - the insurance tow truck would not reach. He said nothing, they will sort it out on the spot. The next day, it turned out that the car key was missing. I informed Tamaz, but he did not have a duplicate (it turned out that the car itself was rented by Tamaz from another owner, with whom he could not quickly contact). Friends of Tamaz arrived in another car, which they had to give me as a replacement. But due to the history of the key, I was eventually told:
calling a programmer, a trip to Tbilisi and back, giving a car - all together it will cost me 600 GEL. We were taken to Tbilisi. One day of the lease was gone. the day the police reported that the key was found in their car (at night it fell out of my jacket pocket). I told Tamaz's friends that they canceled the programmer who was supposed to open the car and honestly went to the station for the key. The car they drove, the XTrail of a friend Tamaz, was promised to me as a substitute, but only when they finished evacuating the broken car. They didn’t give anything else, they said no. They promised a car by 18 in Tbilisi, brought it to 22.30., Because of this, the hotel reservation (already the second) in the next place of the route was lost. Then Tamaz behaved incorrectly. He promised to contact me, to explain that with the return of a part of those 600 GEL that I gave earlier. Tamaz just disappeared. He stopped taking the phone. As a result, his friends came and explained that I could only get 60 GEL back - the rest was spent on round-trip gasoline, oil, and something else. Prior to that, Tamaz said that it would cost 120 lari to supply a replacement car to Roshka. The difference is noticeable. Tamaz did not get in touch. When I dialed him two days later, I said as if nothing had happened that I was to blame for breaking my car, that I had gone where it was forbidden to go, that his friends had incurred expenses, that nothing would be returned for the money. I didn't curse, vacation time and mood are more expensive. Bottom line: Tamaz returned 100 GEL to me and promised 5 free Forester days next time. Needless to say, I will not take advantage of his suggestion. I don’t understand where all these cool reviews about him on your site come from. I do not argue, they still gave me a car and somehow tried to help, but all the problems were on me - two leases disappeared, the money went to no one knows where, the mood, of course, ruined. The versions of what will happen next have been changing all the time. If they told me right away that for the pleasure of spoiling the car and losing the key I owe 600 GEL and immediately gave me a replacement car, it would be possible to discuss. But in fact, all problems were solved at my expense, and at the most unpleasant moment the owner simply disappeared.
