Joy • traveled in April, 2026
In the early April of 2026, my husband and I had a 11-day Grand Georgia Journey Through Highlands and Sea run by the company of Exotour Georgia. We had a wonderful time in the tour. Thanks to David Sadzaglidhvili, our driver and guide. David was an excellent driver and guide. He was kind, attentive, and always made sure that he could serve our needs or interests during the tour. Especially when there were challenges to execute the original tour plans due to the poor weather or road conditions, he always managed to find a good plan B for us. We are really impressed by the rich Georgia history, culture, and the magnificent Scenery in Georgia.

What is the best time of year for hiking in Georgia's different regions?
Georgia's prime hiking seasons vary across its diverse regions. The high-altitude Svaneti region opens up from June to September when the Chkhutnieri Pass (2720m) becomes accessible and weather conditions are reliable. The lower regions near Tbilisi and Kakheti welcome hikers from April through October with milder temperatures. The historic village of Ushguli at 2200m sees its best hiking conditions during July and August. A TourRadar traveler notes: "The September weather was perfect for hiking in Svaneti with clear views of Mt. Shkhara and comfortable temperatures for long-distance treks."
Where do travelers stay during multi-day treks in Georgia's mountain regions?
Accommodations range from well-appointed hotels in cities to local guesthouses in mountain villages. Modern hotels like the Kala Hotel in Mestia provide standard amenities while remote villages such as Adishi and Ushguli offer family-run guesthouses with basic shared facilities. These mountain stays let visitors experience daily Svanetian life firsthand. A TourRadar traveler notes: "Staying with local families in Adishi village was a highlight - their warm hospitality and homemade Georgian cuisine made the experience unforgettable."

The country offers trails for every ability level. Beginners can take on the Gergeti Trinity Church trail (6-7 hours 16km) with its views of Mt. Kazbek. Mid-level hikers often choose the Mestia to Ushguli route through historic villages. Advanced trekkers can tackle the Chaukhi Pass trek (8-10 hours reaching 3338m) for dramatic mountain views. A TourRadar traveler notes: "The hiking is hard but well worth it. Scenery is terrific."
