This route is relevant for those who have the time and starts the journey from Tbilisi early in the morning. This route is not suitable for those who want to implement it on the day of arrival and continue the next day. You need 2 full days of trips and walks. You will be amazed because of the beauty of Georgia, pleasantly tired of traveling, and afterwards get a great picture of a beautiful voyage.
First day of travel
Start the trip at 09 AM from the hotel
- Trip to Ananuri that takes 1-1.5 hours, sightseeing
- Moving to Gudauri - the road takes 1 hour. Walking in the ski resort is 30 - 60 minutes
- Moving to Kazbegi it is 1 hour on the road, then 1 hour 30 minutes for a walk, climb to the Temple on foot - 2 hours or local transport - 20 minutes, sightseeing until one hour
- Trip to Stepantsminda city
- Lunch – 1 hour
- Return to Tbilisi 2-2.5 hours to the hotel
- Have a supper and night in Tbilisi hotel
The first day can be shortened and lengthened. Reduction of the route is possible if you do not want to go to Gudauri or are not interested in the museums of Stepantsminda, but do not think that you have reduced the route by 50%, which means that you have plenty of time. All this time will be spend on the sightseeing. There are excellent views, the military-Georgian road is simply wonderful, only two other Georgian roads can compete with it. Places where you want to stop making a picnic, a photo or just a walk, just do not count.
The second day of travel
Start your trip from the hotel at 09 o'clock in the morning
- Tbilisi - Borjomi - drive to Borjomi on the way about 2.5 - 3 hours
