Overview

Our 7-day Hiking in Tusheti , one of the most popular Hiking Tours in Georgia, consists of 5 hiking days and 2 transfer days. This tour is ideal for experienced hikers who can comfortably manage daily distances of 13 to 17 km and elevation gains of 500 to 900 meters.

Tusheti, a mountainous region in eastern Georgia in the Greater Caucasus, attracts many travellers who want to discover the breathtaking landscape and diverse flora and fauna of the Caucasus. A national park was established here as early as 2003 to protect the unique beauty of this region. Even the journey to Tusheti via the 3000-metre-high Abano Pass, which can only be driven over with a four-wheel drive, is an adventure.

During the hike through Tusheti, we explore all four valleys in the region and visit picturesque villages. A baggage car helps us transport our luggage to the next accommodation, so that hikers only have to carry a daypack.

In Tusheti, we stay in the guest houses of the villages, where delicious meals and hot showers await us every day. Guests have the opportunity to experience the daily life of the Tushetians up close and to visit the famous Tushetian defence towers. Our guide will tell us a lot about Tushetian culture and local customs.

Please note: This tour can also be booked as an individual tour with or without a guide. Tips, pre- and post-programme for hiking in Georgia on your own can be found here.

 Trustindex überprüft, ob die Originalquelle der Bewertung Google ist. Giorgi hat uns zu viert zwei Wochen lang auf einer kombinierten Kultur- und Wanderreise durch Georgien und Armenien begleitet. Er hat sich vom ersten Kontakt bis zur Verabschiedung stets freundlich und professionell um alles gekümmert. Wir haben in schönen Hotels gewohnt und sehr gut gegessen. Die Wanderrouten waren konditionell anspruchsvoll, haben uns aber mit tollen Ausblicken in die Landschaft belohnt, inklusive der Sichtung von Steinböcken am Kasbeg. Wer Lust auf die spannenden Reiseländer Georgien und Armenien hat, kann sich bedenkenlos Giorgi anvertrauen.

Perfekte Reise durch Georgien mit Giorgi! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wir haben unsere Georgien-Reise für meine Deutsche Freunden gemeinsam mit Reiseziel Kaukasus geplant und durchgeführt und könnten nicht glücklicher mit unserer Entscheidung sein. Ein ganz großes Dankeschön geht an Giorgi! Er hat unsere Tour (unter anderem nach Mzcheta, Signagi und Tiflis) perfekt organisiert. Dank seiner hervorragenden Fachkenntnisse, seiner warmherzigen Art und den vielen spannenden Einblicken in die georgische Kultur und Geschichte wurde die Reise zu einem unvergesslichen Erlebnis. Alles lief reibungslos und super entspannt ab. Wer Georgien individuell, authentisch und bestens betreut erleben möchte, ist hier genau an der richtigen Adresse. Absolute Empfehlung!

 Trustindex überprüft, ob die Originalquelle der Bewertung Google ist. Wir haben im Juni 2026 eine Rundreise durch Georgien gemacht, im Zuge der Planung sind wir auf Giorgi‘s Kontakt gestoßen. Leider hat terminlich keine gemeinsame Tour geklappt, aber Giorgi hat uns über die gesamte Planung und Reise wertvolle Tips gegeben und Kontakte vermittelt. Wir haben uns auch einmal in seiner Heimatstadt auf Durchreise getroffen und uns über unsere Erfahrungen und weiteren Ziele ausgetauscht. Er ist sehr kompetent, hilfsbereit und spricht sehr gut deutsch. Meine nächste Reise in Georgien wird definitiv eine von ihm angebotene Trekking Tour sein. Bis demnächst!
