⚠️ Crucial Traffic & Punctuality Notice
The road from Tbilisi to Kazbegi (Georgian Military Road) is notorious for unpredictable traffic, sudden police checkpoints, and long delays caused by cargo trucks (caravans). A drive that usually takes 3 hours can easily take 5+ hours without warning.
Plan Ahead: We strongly advise leaving Tbilisi much earlier than planned to avoid missing your slot.
Strict Policy: Our guides and horses are booked back-to-back. We operate on a strict punctuality policy. Tours cannot be rescheduled, delayed, or refunded on the day of the activity due to traffic or transport issues.
Changes: Any requests for rescheduling must be submitted at least 24 hours prior to the tour start time. Same-day late arrivals will result in a cancelled tour with 100% cancellation fees.
Thank you for your cooperation and understanding in helping us keep our horses and guides on schedule!
