— About this tour

The photographers'
choice.

Same two signature Caucasus hikes as our weekend package — but with an added day built around the Gudauri Friendship Monument at 2,300m. This is a Soviet-era mosaic on a cliff overlooking the Greater Caucasus, and one of the most photographed viewpoints in Georgia.

The third day means less rushed pacing, more photo time, and a proper send-off to Tbilisi. Built for travelers who have a mid-week gap and want to enjoy the mountains slowly.

What you'll see
  • Gergeti Trinity Church (2,170m) — 3h hike
  • Juta to Tina Lake (2,550m) — 3–4h hike
  • Gudauri Friendship Monument panorama (2,300m)
  • Mt. Kazbek views from multiple angles
