Snow crunches under the tires as the minivan climbs out of Tbilisi and into the Lesser Caucasus — the driver negotiates hairpins while the guide points out ridgelines dusted in white.
First stop: Jvari Monastery, where two rivers meet below and the hill seems to hold its breath. From there the route slips into Borjomi-Kharagauli National Park: steep gullies, mineral springs that have been bottled for a century, and a short walk to a roadside waterfall. The day pivots eastward to Bakuriani, a compact ski hub whose lifts serve Didveli and the Kokhta ridges. Mount Kokhta rises to roughly 2,269 m while Didveli’s lifts reach higher terrain; artificial snow keeps main runs consistent.
The area mixes Soviet-era resort infrastructure with traditional Georgian mountain culture — shepherding and conifer forests shape local life, and nearby villages sell fresh cheese and chvishtari (cornbread).
Practical note: this is a full-day private transfer (9–12 hours) with guided stops rather than a dedicated ski lesson. Expect cold, variable wind, and quick altitude gains; bring windproof layers and winter footwear. Use the free time in Bakuriani to test a short lift ride, try a snowmobile, or walk gentle slopes if you’re not skiing.
Timing matters: leave Tbilisi early to avoid traffic and get the best light at Jvari. Hydrate for the cold, carry ID for mineral water tastings, and confirm which activities (lift tickets, rentals) are included or available locally.
This private day trip provides free time at the resort but typically does not include formal ski lessons; instructors and rentals can be arranged locally for an extra fee.
Yes — the itinerary includes a break for lunch in Bakuriani or Borjomi; plan 30–60 minutes depending on group preference.
Most bookings include transport, guide, and pickup/drop-off; lifts, rentals, and motorized activities are usually pay-on-site unless specified otherwise — confirm when booking.
The tour allows infants (lap seating or infant seats available) and is family-friendly, but some activities like snowmobiling have age limits; check operator rules ahead of time.
