Bike Tour Across Georgia
16 days through Georgia’s landscapes, history, and legendary hospitality—by bike
This exceptional bike tour offers a full immersion into Georgia’s cultural and natural richness. Beginning in the west, you’ll explore the ancient Colchian heartland of Kutaisi and the seaside charm of Batumi. Then, journey through the mystical cave city of Vardzia before heading east to Kakheti—the country’s celebrated wine region. The tour also includes in-depth visits to Tbilisi, Georgia’s eclectic capital.
Daily cycling stages range from 30 to 70 km on mostly paved, low-traffic roads. Terrain varies from flat lowlands to moderate hills, with a few challenging mountain segments. A support vehicle carries your luggage (and tired cyclists when needed). Rental bikes are available.
