Fantastic day on the Georgian Military Road
We had a wonderful time - the scenery was gorgeous and our guide Aleksi was friendly, patient, and very knowledgable. We especially appreciated his guidance on lunch, as his recommendation was spot on and we had a fantastic meal. We couldn’t have been happier with our trip!
Response from the operator: I hope you are having a wonderful time in Georgia! We were absolutely delighted to read your lovely review about your journey along the Georgian Military Road. It makes us so happy to hear that the scenery was as gorgeous as expected and that your day was truly fantastic. We are especially proud to hear your kind words about Aleksi. He is a wonderful and valued member of our team, and we will be sure to share your feedback with him. He will be thrilled to know that his patience, knowledge, and lunch recommendation helped make your trip so special. There is nothing quite like a "spot-on" Georgian meal after a day of exploring the mountains! Thank you so much for choosing Friendly.ge for your adventure. We wish you a very happy holiday season and a wonderful continuation of your travels. We would be honored to welcome you back for another tour in the future!

Perfect Mountain Adventure
We had a wonderful experience with Khatuna, she was the best guide, very professional, kind and funny. She helped us choose a nice restaurant and was also a very skilled driver, so driving with her was comfortable and safe. The trip was very well organised and planned, we had enough time to explore all the locations, and there even was the possibility of travelling from Gudauri to Kobi by cable car. I would recommend this private tour, it allows you to visit one of the most significant and iconic places in Georgia at your own pace with a magnificent guide.
Response from the operator: Thank you, Dagmar, for sharing your experience with us! We're so glad you enjoyed your mountain adventure with Khatuna. It's great to hear that she made the trip both fun and safe, and that you appreciated the well-organized itinerary and the flexibility of a private tour. We're so glad you had the opportunity to explore the stunning landscapes of Kazbegi and Gudauri at your own pace. Your recommendation means a lot to us and we hope to see you again for more adventures in Georgia!

Awsome scenery and road with a mix of history and culture as a bonus
Overall very satisfiled. The weather up at Kazbegi was clear, scenery was stunning. My guide Aleksi has good English. He was very knowledgable about the history and culture of the area. He described the carvings on the monastery wall at Ananuri in some detail. He stopped wherever I wanted and was careful driving. Had snow tyres because the weather can change rapidly up top. He has contacts at Stephantsminde if you want to get a 4x4 up to Gergeti church
Response from the operator: Dear John, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review! We're thrilled to hear that you had an awesome time on our tour to Kazbegi, Ananuri, Zhinvali, and Gudauri. It's great to know that you found the scenery stunning and that Aleksi, your guide, was knowledgeable about the history and culture of the area. We always strive to provide the best experience possible for our customers, and we're glad to know that you enjoyed it. We understand that the weather can be unpredictable in the mountains, so we always ensure that our vehicles are equipped with snow tires and our drivers are experienced and careful. We're also happy to hear that Aleksi was able to accommodate your requests and stopped wherever you wanted. Thank you again for choosing to tour with us, and we hope to have the opportunity to show you more of Georgia in the future!

Why this scores 68
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Tour to Kazbegi Ananuri Zhinvali Gudauri Full Day: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tbilisi.
How much does Tour to Kazbegi Ananuri Zhinvali Gudauri Full Day cost?
+
Prices start at $100 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 Tour to Kazbegi Ananuri Zhinvali Gudauri Full Day take?
+
Plan for about 10 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 Tour to Kazbegi Ananuri Zhinvali Gudauri Full Day worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 68 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 46 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 Tour to Kazbegi Ananuri Zhinvali Gudauri Full Day?
+
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 Tour to Kazbegi Ananuri Zhinvali Gudauri Full Day suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Tour to Kazbegi Ananuri Zhinvali Gudauri Full Day?
+
Around 16 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 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Tour to Kazbegi Ananuri Zhinvali Gudauri Full Day 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, Tbilisi:Mtskheta,Jvari,Bazaar,wine tasting,Chronicles of Georgia, Kakheti Wine Region Tour + 10 Premium Wine Tastings & Sunset. 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.
