Must-do trip to Kazbegi with Select Georgia!
The trip to Kazbegi is a must-do for anyone in Georgia, and I highly recommend this one with Select Georgia tours. We saw the Ananuri Castle Complex, the Gergeti Trinity Church, and hiked to the Gveleti waterfall. We also saw a few hidden gems including ancient fire towers, an artist carving faces onto massive stones, and a monastery overlooking the Russian border. Our tour guide spoke excellent English, and was well versed in the history of the country and the individual sites we visited. As it was a private tour, we asked him a ton of questions about the area, and learned a few words of Georgian. He was patient with us as we explored each site, took pictures, and went at our pace on the hike to the waterfall. Rather than lunch at a restaurant, we ate at a home that had been turned into a B&B. We had a family-style meal with the entire room to ourselves and incredible view of the mountains in front of us. I'm a vegetarian and they had prepared numerous vegetable dishes so that I had a variety of traditional foods to try - all of it was delicious.
Response from the operator: Thanks a lot for your detailed review of Kazbegi Tour. Your honest feedback means a lot for us. Thank you.

The BEST option to see northern Georgia!
After having a terrible experience 2 days prior, Georgi restored our faith in Georgian tour guides. He is a true professional who takes pride in his country. He is very knowledgable about all things Georgia, and his English is very good as well. This is a true private tour where we could stop anywhere we wanted if desired. Play in the snow? Sure. Need a water closet or buy something from a roadside stand? No problem. We chose this tour out of what seemed like hundreds of options because it seemed the most unique and everything was covered. The vehicle had wifi, water was provided, and the 4x4 transportation to the Gergeti Trinity Church was covered. Some other unique things included visiting several hidden gems that it didn't seem like other tours had, such as carved stone literary and religious figures by a local artist, watch towers, and mineral deposits. Georgi spent much time during the Covid-19 pandemic to develop these unique itineraries and it shows. Not all tours included a hike either, but this one will take you to not one, but two gorgeous waterfalls. We aren't really in shape, and had our 7-year old daughter with us, but were able to complete the hike just fine, so don't be afraid of a little nature. Our hike was followed by a great surprise for lunch. While we had assumed Georgi would take us to a typical restaurant, he took us to a local guest house where a private, home-cooked spread of Georgian food awaited us. In addition, a local also taught us how to make khinkali (Georgian dumplings). No other tours I saw offered this and it was absolutely worth it. Maximize your time in Georgia and take this tour, or any others offered by SelectGeorgia-For Holiday. Pickup was at 8am, make sure to eat beforehand and/or bring snacks. We arrived back at our hotel around 8pm.
Response from the operator: Thanks a lot for your review. Your honest feedback means a lot for us. We really enjoyed organizing Tour to Kazbegi for your family. Thanks again. Hope to see you again soon.

Beautiful trip to Kazbegi with Select Georgia!
My friend and I just got back from a four day trip to Georgia, and visited all of the beautiful sites that the country has to offer, one of which we loved was our tour to Kazbegi. We saw so many things on this full day tour including the beautiful Ananuri Castle Complex and Dariali Monastery Complex, we tasted the water from the Sulphur Waters near Jvari Pass, we stopped by the Panorama of Gudauri for breathtaking views and finally, the highlight was hiking up to see the Gveleti Waterfall. We had a great time with Giorgi or Select Georgia and could not have asked for a better tour! Thank you Select Georgia!
Response from the operator: Thanks a lot for writing the review. Your honest feedback means a lot for us. Thank you for your kind words. We enjoyed organizing Tour to Kazbegi for you. Hope to see you again soon.

Fun filled day trip from the city
Great day trip to drive outside of the city and see the monasteries, Gudauri, where you can also plan to hang glide but bring cash with you, and also do a hike to 2 waterfalls in Gveleti. This is a full day tour from Tbilisi and we were able to hit all the spots we wanted to see.
Response from the operator: Thank you for your kind words. Your honest feedback means a lot for us. We enjoyed organizing Tour to Kazbegi for you. Hope to see you again soon.

Why this scores 65
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Kazbegi Tour with Gergeti Church, Waterfall Hike & Hidden Gems: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tbilisi.
How much does Kazbegi Tour with Gergeti Church, Waterfall Hike & Hidden Gems cost?
+
Prices start at $228 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 Kazbegi Tour with Gergeti Church, Waterfall Hike & Hidden Gems take?
+
Plan for about 12 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 Kazbegi Tour with Gergeti Church, Waterfall Hike & Hidden Gems worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 65 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 19 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 Kazbegi Tour with Gergeti Church, Waterfall Hike & Hidden Gems?
+
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 Kazbegi Tour with Gergeti Church, Waterfall Hike & Hidden Gems suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 12-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Kazbegi Tour with Gergeti Church, Waterfall Hike & Hidden Gems?
+
Around 7 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 12-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Kazbegi Tour with Gergeti Church, Waterfall Hike & Hidden Gems 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.
