An exceptional experience with Zurab – far beyond our expectation.
We would like to warmly thank Zurab for an unforgettable excursion to the military route, Kazbegi and beyond. The experience exceeded all our expectations. Zurab is not only a professional and careful driver, but also a highly knowledgeable guide. As a graduate in Art History from the University of Georgia, he has a deep understanding of Georgian history, culture and art. His knowledge extends beyond Georgia to the history and relationships with neighboring countries such as Armenia, Turkey, Russia and Azerbaijan throughout the centuries. We were fascinated by his detailed explanations of the paintings, icons and historical monuments we visited along the way. Every place became much more meaningful thanks to his passion and knowledge. Travelling in his comfortable and new Mercedes vehicle was a pleasure. He adapted perfectly to our pace as a mature couple, always showing kindness, patience and a great sense of hospitality. We had decided to extend our journey and discover not only Kazbegi, but also Borjomi, it's lovely park and the city of Akhaltsikhe and it's old forteress called Rabati and the magnificent ancient cave site of Vardzia and many other remarkable historical sites, landscapes and natural wonders, including a different and beautiful return route to Tbilisi. Having travelled extensively, we can honestly say that the days spent with Zurab were among the most interesting and enriching experiences we have ever had. We highly recommend Zurab to anyone wishing to discover Georgia with a passionate, knowledgeable and genuinely caring guide.

An experience you can never forget😇
I wish there was something more than 5 star for this trip experience, Rathi(tour expert) & David(driver) were exceptionally professional and and thorough with their work profile. They went above and beyond to make sure me and my husband had a memorable trip. Rathi is so passionate about sharing his culture and hospitality with tourist, a quality very rare these days. They were extremely accomodating amd open to adjust the day according to us. Rathi has great knowledge of the history and values and would share them with you also he is so keen on learning about different countries and their history amd culture,We had amazing conversation as we share mutual interest of services. I loved the places we visited however this trip is most memorable to me because of these beautiful humans.

One of the best experiences ever
One of the best experiences ever. I booked the tour from Tbilisi to Kazbegi, my tour guide was Rati and David was the driver. both of them made it absolutely memorable for me. Rati was incredibly knowledgeable and a great company to have. one of my highlights of my trip to georgia was the khinkali master class, the locals were so loving and welcoming. the place ofcourse was beautiful and the tour was very well planned. rati even helped take my pictures, which was so nice as I was a solo traveller. i felt very safe and happy, it was all in all one of the best experiences ever.

The best tour company in Georgia!
Easily the best tour guide company in Georgia. I had an amazing time with Zura & Goga who led me on this tour. I booked two full day and one night tour with them and it was the best decision I made going with this company. Zura and Goga delivered a real authentic experience of Georgia with a very personable tour. It honestly felt like I was visiting old friends after a long time. I had a great experience both getting to see the amazing country of Georgia outside of the main city and making lifelong friends. I will definitely re-book when I return!

Why this scores 67
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Day Adventure Ananuri and Kazbegi via Georgian Military Road: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tbilisi.
How much does Day Adventure Ananuri and Kazbegi via Georgian Military Road cost?
+
Prices start at $55 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 Day Adventure Ananuri and Kazbegi via Georgian Military Road take?
+
Plan for about 9 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 Day Adventure Ananuri and Kazbegi via Georgian Military Road worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 6 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 Day Adventure Ananuri and Kazbegi via Georgian Military Road?
+
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 Day Adventure Ananuri and Kazbegi via Georgian Military Road suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 9-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Day Adventure Ananuri and Kazbegi via Georgian Military Road?
+
Around 2 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 9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Day Adventure Ananuri and Kazbegi via Georgian Military Road 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 Tbilisi:Evening Walking & Talking Tour with Wine & Boat Ride, Kakheti Wine Region Tour + 10 Premium Wine Tastings & Sunset, Tbilisi:Mtskheta,Jvari,Bazaar,wine tasting,Chronicles of Georgia. 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.
