FROM TBILISI · KAZBEGI & GUDAURI DAY TRIPS
You get one shot at the Military Highway and the tour decides most of it. These 15 cover the whole road — Jinvali, Ananuri, the Jvari Pass, Stepantsminda — and differ on the thing that matters: whether the 4WD up to Gergeti Trinity is included, or whether you are looking at the church from the village below.

“The Gudauri & Kazbegi day tour with Gamarjoba Georgia Tours was top-tier energy and planning. Our guide Catherine = walking encyclopaedia, Informative, patient, fun, and somehow always one step ahead of the clock (time management Queen 👑). Driver Jaba = mountain whisperer. Smoothest and safest driving on the curves of the Georgian Military Road. Zero fear, 100% trust, elite playlist-in-head vibes. Weather: -3°C, breezy, spicy-cold — the kind that makes you question every life choice… until you see those snow views in Gudauri and Kazbegi and suddenly you’re like: “Worth it, would freeze again.” Highly recommended!!”

“Iraqli was an amazing driver and guide . Very safe driving in the winding roads of the Georgian military road , gave us enough time at the beautiful Kazbegi hotel for lunch ( not included) and knew all the photo spots at the 2 cathedrals , fortress and reservoir . Recommend doing this privately and not as part of group as it’s a long full day experience”

“The places seen on the tour were just as described in the tour description. We saw everything and it was all beautiful!! The bus was very comfortable. The tour lasted from 9am-8pm so plan for a full day. Bring enough cash (20 GEL) for the extra ride to the Gergeti Trinity Church since it is totally worth it! Also bring cash for the lunch and any snacks along the way (20-50 GEL). Only complaint was lunch was at the Best Western in Gudauri. While the food itself was not bad, travelers from the US at least don’t typically want to go to a hotel chain for a meal on a…”

“Our guide Omar was amazing. He was very knowledgeable and gave great recommendations of places to eat and things to do around Tbilisi. He was very attentive and personable. We stopped for bathroom breaks and snacks along the way. The scenery was beautiful and the drive wasn’t bad at all with all the stops. The only thing I felt like I was tricked about was paying 60 GEL on the way to the church and on the way back down. The description said ALL transportation was included in the final price. It was disappointing this was not disclosed by the tour.”
