1. Prometheus Caves
These caves are very close to Kutaisi. It’s a huge tunnels of dozen caves with wonderful lights inside. I would recommend you to take underground River trip option in your excursion plan. It’s short but worse it! When you will have such chance again? ;)
2. Martvili Canyons
It’s like inside the Lord of the Rings movie!
– Jane Maple
This place is not very popular destination in Georgia. But for me it was the best one! Fairytale on Earth. You are expecting elfs and trolls to jump outside of every second bush! Water is falling from 9 meters with incredible noise! Breathtaking!
I would recommend going there for few hours. Maybe even have picnic there. You should definitely rent the boat (it’s cheap) and go up the river to see the main Canyon, the old bridges, waterfall and maybe even swim in emerald water.
3. Vardzia Cave City
It’s an ancient city based inside of the huge mountain. You can walk inside or even rent a room inside in a few years.
4. Road from Vardzia to Tbilisi
Just best sights ever! Marvelous valleys, peaceful ships, small villages and nice people.
5. Gudauri Mountains
Your legs are shaking and your head is spinning but you can’t move your eyes from them. They’ve just captured you.

Pictures are saying more than I can. 2.2 km altitude. Sometimes even hard to breath. But I would do that again! Try staing in Tsar Bani hotel — wonderful place.
6. Mount Kazbek 5.03 km
Kazbek is a potentially active volcano, built up of trachyte and sheathed with lava, and has the shape of a double cone. Just go “russian” road farther Gudauri and you will find it! Great mountain with snow peak.
7. Svaneti Mountains
4 hours drive from Batumi. Nice and quiet places. You also can find storage reservoir worth visiting there.
8. Makhuntseti waterfall
This photo can't represent the beauty of this place. Waterfall is high and has place to swim. So if you are near Batumi just spend 40 minutes and visit this place. You can also go to Adjaria Vine House on the same road.
9. Mtirala Park
The most wet place in all Europe. You will find a few waterfalls and 50 shades of green there! Beatiful flowers and trees. If you like hiking — this is the place!
This trip should better be made by car and during minimum 5–7 days. Have a nice journey friends!
