Nice work as always, I've spent plenty of time In Batumi, that perfume lady was more than likely a Gypsy rather than a typical Georgian.

[teamwhiztravels]

This was such a cool video. Thanks for sharing this with us.

The weather changed SO much SO quickly. Was so summary in your last video and now looks like winter.

[GPosner]

what beautiful pictures, is worth a trip. thanks for the pictures

Luke, she is basically giving the perfume away! lol. That stinks about the rain, but looks like you made the most of your time. What a great saleswoman the spicy seller was! Naomi knows fruit leather when she sees it. Yea, that market does sound super quiet. The coffee shop, not so much. Great video. Keep showing us the locals!

[siciurynka]

and this long hanging sweets are amazing. it's made of dried grapes or cranberry with nuts. delicious.

[mishachaganava]

Good Bay is "Nakhvamdis" not Madloba :) Madloba is Thank you

[Enter_joy]

Exploring batumi from root, so good Very informative, well done🎉

[DavidandSarah]

wow what an experience. looks like such a big market!

[Annaconda]

The woman who taught you didn't seem georgian. Honey is tapli and naxvamdis is bye bye...madloba means ONLY thank you. I'll leave you guys a comment from our georgian2go account as well. I subscribed btw and wish you an awesome time in Batumi. As for the fruit leather, go for red or dark red, those are the original flavors and the best (same goes for churchxela, the ones with nuts. The ones with walnuts are better. Sometimes theres white powder on them, it's not mold, it's sweet).

[PaulStrizhevsky]

What an epic market! Thanks for the tour, guys.
Malina is raspberry (in Russian) and adjika can be best described as the better version of a mild salsa. Absolutely delicious with most meat dishes.

[Ian.]

They don't seem to be as pushy as a lot of markets are around the world. Nice. It makes for a lot better shopping environment.

[Nata]

Wow, the old lady is talking to you in russian as if you can understand it, malina is a raspberry and it's a home made raspberry jam))) and funduk is a hazelnut)))

[greathey]

I own a flat there and travel every few months to Batumi and have never known this place. I will definitely visit this market

[Georgiango]

as promised, here's another comment. Use adjika lightly...you can add a little bit to your bread and butter or you can spice your fried potatoes with it. You can also get dried adjika as a spice, if you want to take some home but are restricted in your luggage (the spice is available at spar or carrefour as well as at the local markets). I gave the video a thumbs up! I'm not sure about the lady who was claiming the perfumes were original but I ended up buying original high end perfumes at a similar market but in Tbilisi...Some perfume here and there is quite nice but I feel like since Corona and also with what has been going on in the Ukraine, people's values shifted in a more positive direction.

Just for knowledge, can you tell me whether electronic goods especially smartphones, laptops etc from other country is supported in Georgia?

[serdarsevinc]

Turkiye's small neighbors county Georgia very good on natural products, you can find many naturel and handmade products there

[trollsnotwelcome]

Markets look so good but so confusing because of language wow. I'm sure you're learning loads
