How to get around in Georgia?
In Georgia, you can use the metro and taxis in Tbilissi, marshrutkas (minibuses) for intercity trips, flights or trains to Batumi and Kutaisi, or rent a car (preferably a 4x4) for more comfort and freedom.
Transport in the capital
In Tbilissi, the metro efficiently serves the main neighborhoods of the city. Taxis are also a convenient way to get around, with affordable rates.
Traveling between cities
- Marshrutkas (minibuses) : an economical but uncomfortable solution for reaching most destinations in the country.
- Plane : domestic flights to Kutaisi and Batumi from Tbilissi.
- Train : direct line Tbilissi-Batumi, scenic journey along the coast.
Car rental
Rental with or without a driver offers the greatest freedom to explore Georgia. Choose a 4x4 because of the variable condition of roads, particularly in the mountains.
Key points
Before any departure to mountain regions, check the condition of the roads. In spring, many routes can be temporarily closed due to avalanches.
