Same thing happen to me also on 5 Jan 2023 There are groups of thieves and kids who stick to me in front of the entrance of galleria mall of tiblis and steal my valet ,but no people help me ,They are we trained and big mafia is making all this.also around in 10 meter police was standing but they didn't do I cont to georgian Police, and they do nothing!Only they write report, but they cannot talk in English also.so it was difficult.They stollen my credit card and cash including.Also they were using my card for purchasing i told to police also that they are using my card at this place .But no action taken.so with the help of one person I block all my credit card.later I was taken to crime branch and they told me to sit .I waited for 3 hrs in police station.then again they took my statement and tell me to sign on statement, when they found my vallet they will inform me.But any how I came to know that they already found valet in 45 minutes. So one of man ask to me that have u got ur valet.i said not yet .bcz police are telling me when they get they will contact me.he then ask to police and then finally they give me.As I lost all my money and Cards , but only I have got my EID and DL.Dont believe on Google News about no Crime in Georgia. I would request and suggest to go other place than Georgia.Also on the same day in police station I meet three people having same issue .They belongs to UAE resident,Asian and one from US .There is big gang of mafia in Georgia, Tiblis who is operating these racket.As price are saying we cannot do any thing to children as they are 14 years old or less.Also came to know people are following you and have connections outside .when go outside of mall these children are attacking tourisy.No tourist are safe.These racket are g
Operating since 2019 ,still no action taken means surely there is big people behind it .And also too much corruption I think ,So last and final words to all my friends.Avoid to travel Georgia.Bcz no body will help you there.
The crime rate of Georgia is low because the Police force tourists to file the robberies as Lost!and they take signature to close the case bcz the statement is written in their language.
Shame on you ... Worst trip experience. Several almost 4 thefts occured in few minustes and Police did nothing.

be careful with these bars in the old town tourist area, a friend got cleaned up the bank 5600lari in 3 mobile banking app transitions, this was after 2 drinks, he doesn't remember anything, only remembering he was pushed in a car driving around to get more money. doesn't remember which place exactly they drop him off. plus the next day they try to call him to ask for 5000 lari more.

Georgia is the one of the world centers of the children prostitution trafficking.
Even international hotels have special posters that warns parents about children kidnapping.

It is extremly unsafe for all central Europeans, because Georgians think for most of us that we are Russians.
So if you from west or south slavic countries, don't come to Georgia.

I have information. Alexandro Yunoc Rapa. Coming tonight to Tbilisi, and have drugs geroin and cocain . Coming from Etland 2:30., goin to AInstabul . And 04:30 Sunday to airport to Gorgiya Tbilisi. Have too many drugs.

never under any circumstance go into a restaurant, bar, or club from any women that approach you from the street asking if you need recommendation for a place to eat or drink. These are scam restaurants, and all bars/clubs in Tbilisi are scam places. u been warned.

Its not safe for people that look different . Georgians are very aggressive people especially if you are minority. All this good comments are nothing but lies. You cant even walk alone during night because some drunk georgians might start fighting for no reason just because your skin or even t-shirt looks different.

The reason why people have a mouth and two ears is because they listen twice as much as they say

Crime is much lower today, most crimes are family crimes, which unfortunately, but still is very common problem for whole region, not just for Georgia, tourism is mostly safe, but there are still some areas that you should stay away from (but, such areas you can find in every city nowadays, unfortunately) and police reacts very fast, not long ago someone stole bike from my friend, who is a British tourist and police find it just in a day.

I have read my message below- and it is really not fair of the beauty of the place and the people. Tbilisi is an amazing place for tourists and the poeple lovely- we had a few moments of suspicioion but apart from that the people were warm and wanted us to love the country as well.

I would recommend this city one hundred percent.

Be careful at outside bars, I sat down at a bar ordered a beer and two ladies next to me started chating with and I offered the a drink... to find out those women work for the bar and the drinks they order (cognac)is 50 dollars a glass.which was written in a menu that no body will show you So after three drink each they charge me 600. When I protest they call their fellow security people and they put handcuff on me till I withdrew money from ATM. To let me leave. A lot of fraud is going on in the city.
