Questions about this tour

How long is this tour and what time does it start?

This is a 2-day, 1-night private tour. Departure from your Tbilisi hotel is at 08:30, though since every departure is private, you can request a different time. You return to your Tbilisi hotel on Day 2 in the early evening.

What is included and what isn't?

Yes. Pickup from Kutaisi, Batumi, the airports or any address in Georgia can be arranged; the price adjusts for the extra distance and we confirm it in writing before you book. See also our airport transfers and car-with-driver service at gtour.ge/services/.

Is this tour private, and how many people does it accommodate?

Yes, this is a fully private tour with just your car, driver and guide. The quoted price of €390 per person is based on two travellers; solo travellers or larger groups can request a custom quote.

Is the tour suitable for children or older travellers with limited mobility?

The minimum age listed is 1, so young children can join, though the mountain altitude, long driving days and partly off-road 4x4 transfers should be considered for very young kids or those with health concerns. Walking is entirely optional — you can see Juta's views from the car park without hiking, which makes it manageable for those with limited mobility. Older travellers should be comfortable with a night away from Tbilisi and some time in a 4x4 on rough roads.

What is the best season to do this tour, and what happens in winter?

Juta is open and walkable from late May to October. In winter, when Juta is inaccessible, the tour substitutes a snow walk or extra time in Gudauri instead. Expect cooler mountain temperatures year-round given the altitude, so dress in layers.

What should I bring?

Bring sun protection, as the mountain altitude makes sun exposure deceptive even on cool days. Comfortable walking shoes are recommended if you plan to hike at Juta or around Gergeti, along with warm layers for the overnight stay in Stepantsminda.

Where does the tour start, and can it begin from Kutaisi or Batumi instead of Tbilisi?

What is the hotel like on the overnight stay?

You'll stay in a boutique 4-star hotel in Stepantsminda with mountain views and breakfast included. The Rooms Hotel Kazbegi can be arranged instead on request, for an additional supplement.

How do I book, and what are the payment or cancellation terms?

Private tour, priced per person for two travelling together (see the price table above for 1, 3 and 4–6 travellers). A deposit of 20 % confirms the booking; the balance is paid on arrival or by secure card link before the tour. Free cancellation up to 7 days before departure, 50 % refund up to 48 hours before, no refund after that; if a mountain pass closes we re-route or reschedule at no cost.
