About this excursion
One of the most spectacular routes from Tbilisi: Zhinvali Reservoir, Ananuri Fortress, the mountains of Gudauri, Kazbegi with Gergeti Church, and lunch in the birthplace of khinkali - already included in the price.
Description
The Kazbegi excursion is one of the most beautiful and impressive routes in Georgia. In a single day, you'll travel along the Georgian Military Highway, see mountain passes, lakes, fortresses, and authentic Caucasian landscapes.
Along the way, you'll encounter the bright turquoise waters of Zhinvali Reservoir, Ananuri Fortress, panoramic views of Gudauri, and the Friendship Arch - places where you truly feel the scale of the Caucasus Mountains.
An important part of the program is lunch in the birthplace of khinkali (Georgian dumplings), already included in the price. It's a chance to try one of Georgia's most famous dishes exactly where it belongs - after a journey into the mountains.
The highlight of the trip is Kazbegi and Gergeti Church, perched high in the mountains. This is the place many come to Georgia for: panoramic views, mountain air, and the authentic spirit of the Caucasus.
