- · Stepantsminda sits at about 1,740m and is noticeably cooler than Tbilisi, pack layers even in warmer months

What happens if the Military Highway is closed on our travel day?
We substitute Ananuri and a Gudauri viewpoint and either wait a day for Gergeti Trinity Church or adjust the route; this is agreed with you in advance where possible.
Is this a private tour or do we join other travellers?
Private throughout, your own car, driver and guide, not shared with other groups.
What standard are the hotels?
Comfortable 3-4 star in Tbilisi; Stepantsminda and Sighnaghi use well-reviewed guesthouses, as larger hotels are limited in both towns. Options confirmed before booking.
Can this be extended to include Svaneti or Batumi?
Yes, see our Georgia in 7 Days or Georgia in 10 Days itineraries, which cover a wider route at a daily rate close to this one.
Prices are per person for two travelling together, in euros; solo travellers and larger groups are quoted on request. Every departure is private and adjusted to you. Hotels, wineries and restaurants on our routes are verified by GTour.
