Great trip with a great guide....
This 6 day trekking tour in Tusheti was beyond words!! The road into this mountainous corner of Georgia was scary as! "In the top 10 most dangerous roads in the world". Not for the faint-hearted: but, it was absolutely stunning. The trek itself, also has some stretches of vertiginous paths. But if you can summon the courage....don't miss this trek!! The scenery in this cut-off corner of Georgia was mouthwateringly good. We passed few other trekkers. Trek Georgia did a great job organising this trek. The local accommodation, although basic, was good. Lots of nice food, too. The hosts were very friendly. Our guide, Nugo, made the trip all the more fun. A very experienced, tuned in guide. Couldn't fault our trip......

An experience of a life-time!
If you want to experience the real Georgia, then Trek Georgia is the way to explore. The remote villages and mountains in Tusheti were pristine and we loved the hiking, but the highlight was the warmth of the people and the incredibly delicious food (and the cha cha). We had the perfect guide. An expert hiker who was very focused on our safety at all times, and he also gave us insights to the Georgian culture which made us fall in love with the country and its people. It was an experience of a life-time! Highly, highly recommended.

Not going again. Hospiltaity need an improvement
-Guide was good in her job but got yelled at some points while trekking when we have to walk away from sheperd dogs. Also spoke badly when we had many stop during incline hike. -Always have to email to ask information about the trip before going -After trip, we asked for photos and vdo few times but never get a reply on email
Response from the operator: Hey Thuncha, thank you for your feedback. Your opinion matters to us, and we appreciate you sharing your feedback as it helps us to deliver a better experience next time. We’re honestly surprised with your review, as we received a positive feedback from you after the trip in September, and we thought you enjoyed with it. I feel the need to respond to your concerns. We always try to be as responsive as possible, and I believe your tour manager also did as you exchanged tens of emails, and all your questions before the trip were answered within 24 hours. Pre-departure information was also provided more than a week before the tour departure. However, we’re sorry if you still felt the delay in communication. As for the shepherd dogs in the mountains, they may become quite dangerous if they are not managed and avoided in some circumstances. This is why your guide was trying to make sure that you would walk away in a certain way from them. Your guide was shattered that you felt this way as she was trying to ensure the safety during the challenging hike. She puts enormous effort into making the guests happy and we apologize if this was not met in your interaction with her. We are sorry about the late photos of your trip. Each of the members of our team tries to go beyond what is expected and I am sure your guide would be happy to share the photos she took, but as we informed you after the trip, her phone was crushed, and it took time to restore the memory. We're always ready to make things better, so we have just sent you the photos we managed to recover. Please check your email Thank you for taking your time to leave a review. I hope you are still having fun trekking and horseback riding adventures. It was a pleasure showing you around.

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Trekking in Tusheti: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tbilisi.
How much does Trekking in Tusheti cost?
+
Prices start at $1,200 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 Trekking in Tusheti take?
+
Plan for about 144 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 Trekking in Tusheti worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 50 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable food & drink in Tbilisi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Trekking in Tusheti?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Trekking in Tusheti suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 144-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Trekking in Tusheti?
+
Around 1 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 144-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Trekking in Tusheti 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 Trekking in Tusheti?

Not included: Trekking Gear (Trekking Poles, Backpacks) – can be rented; Gratuities; Travel insurance; and Overnight in Tbilisi for the last night. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 300 listed pickup locations in and around Tbilisi. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Trekking in Tusheti offered in?
+

Is Trekking in Tusheti wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
