This was one of the most...
This was one of the most enjoyable tours I have been. Our guide was just simply superb. He is a lovely person with a great love for his country and shares his knowledge about its history and culture as we visit the sights and historical places along the way to and from Kazbegi. The information made us appreciate these historical sites and their place in Georgian history. He was also very helpful in selecting local restaurants and ordering wonderful, simple Georgian food along the way. Last but not least, he is a very skillful driver and we felt safe and secure throughout the trip.

Back in Time
I love the Chronicles of Georgia. The sculptor really amazes me not to mention the location. And of course, the monasteries/churches that was built on top of a mountains. The architecture is amazing.

This 2 day was very good . I saw many interesting and historical places . Special thanks to my guide Gogi , he is professional in his job.

Helpful. I recommend him
We liked George he was helpful and polite, he helped us a ton when our kid got sick in the middle of our tour. The only downside regarding the tour was that it felt a little rushed because we couldn't move that fast with our kid. I wish we were able to enjoy the tour more, a few things were closed like the cable cars.

5-Day Svaneti Tour | Mestia, Ushguli & Hikes: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tbilisi.
How much does 5-Day Svaneti Tour | Mestia, Ushguli & Hikes cost?
+
Prices start at $658 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Tbilisi usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 5-Day Svaneti Tour | Mestia, Ushguli & Hikes take?
+
Plan for about 120 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Tbilisi is not rushed.
Is 5-Day Svaneti Tour | Mestia, Ushguli & Hikes worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 69 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 11 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Tbilisi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 5-Day Svaneti Tour | Mestia, Ushguli & Hikes?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 5-Day Svaneti Tour | Mestia, Ushguli & Hikes suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 120-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 5-Day Svaneti Tour | Mestia, Ushguli & Hikes?
+
Around 4 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Tbilisi can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Tbilisi and add a light layer if any part of the 120-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 5-Day Svaneti Tour | Mestia, Ushguli & Hikes start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Tbilisi within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Tbilisi?
+
On Outty we rank every Tbilisi experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Kakheti Wine Region Tour + 10 Premium Wine Tastings & Sunset, Tbilisi:Mtskheta,Jvari,Bazaar,Chronicles of Georgia & Wine Cellar, Day Trip to Kazbegi and Gudauri. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Tbilisi?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Tbilisi?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in 5-Day Svaneti Tour | Mestia, Ushguli & Hikes?
