Day 2: Ananuri, Gudauri & Kazbegi – Into the Mighty Caucasus Mountains
Fuel up with a delicious hotel breakfast before heading north along the legendary Georgian Military Highway into the rugged Caucasus peaks.
Exploring Castles and Turquoise Reservoirs
Your first stop is the stunning 17th-century Ananuri Fortress, standing proudly next to the Aragvi River and the mesmerizing, bright-blue Jinvali water reservoir. Snap classic photos of the stone towers before continuing your mountain ascent.
Standing Over Valleys at Gudauri and Kazbegi
Drive higher into the clouds to reach the Gudauri Panorama, home to the colorful Russian-Georgian Friendship Monument perched on a sheer cliffside. Finally, reach Kazbegi city. Here, you will behold the jaw-dropping sight of the Gergeti Trinity Church silhouetted against the colossal, snow-dusted peaks. Return down the valley to Tbilisi for a warm dinner and overnight stay.
Traveler’s Note: Temperatures drop rapidly as you ascend into the mountains today. Make sure to pack a windproof jacket or a warm fleece sweater in your daypack to stay comfortable at high altitudes.

Enjoy breakfast at your hotel, check out, and journey west into the lush, emerald regions of western Georgia.

Watch the moving steel figures of the Ali & Nino moving sculpture and enjoy the synchronized music at the Batumi fountains before checking into your coastal hotel.
Traveler’s Note: The suspended walkway at Okatse Canyons offers an unparalleled thrill. If you suffer from severe vertigo, take it slow—the views are incredible but the drops are steep!

Finish by looking up at the Symphony of Stones, a breathtaking natural geological formation of hanging basalt columns, before returning to Yerevan for dinner.

Conclude your sightseeing at the red-rock canyon-defying Noravank Monastery before making your final return drive to Yerevan for a celebratory dinner.
