Most Kazbegi tours fill a 15-passenger minibus, visit three paved viewpoints, and call it an adventure. This experience goes much further.
We travel in authentic, licensed 7-seater 4x4 vehicles with a strict maximum of 6 passengers. This gives you a personal atmosphere and allows us to drive where standard minibuses turn back.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What vehicle is used and how is seating arranged?
We use high-clearance, licensed 7-seater 4x4s built for rough mountain tracks (max 6 guests + driver). Standard tickets include shared row seating. For maximum space, extra legroom, and front-row views, select the Front Seat / Comfort Upgrade at checkout. (Only one seat per car)
Is a 4x4 really necessary?
Yes. The road into Truso Valley consists of unpaved gravel, dirt, and river crossings where ordinary minibuses cannot drive.
Is the Truso Valley walk difficult?
No. It is an easy 2–3 km walk on mostly flat terrain. Standard, comfortable sneakers or trainers are perfectly fine.
Is lunch included?
Lunch is not included. We stop at local spots (budget approx. 20–40 GEL per person for authentic khinkali and local food).
Can I be dropped off in Kazbegi/Stepantsminda after the tour?
Yes! Drop-off at your hotel or central Stepantsminda is available for both group and private bookings.
What should I wear?
Mountain weather changes fast. Bring layers, a windproof jacket, walking shoes, sunscreen, a power bank, and spare socks for Truso Valley. A warm layer is essential even in mid-summer.
