How to reach Gudauri from Tbilisi
Gudauri has located about 120 km from Tbilisi and it usually takes around 2 hours to get there from the capital.
Gudauri is a ski resort town in the Caucasus Mountains in the country of Georgia. It is considered one of the best ski resorts in the country – with 50 km of slopes and even heli-skiing tours. The best part? A ski pass here will cost you a fraction of what it would cost at a ski resort in Western Europe or North America.
The views are spectacular. Long slopes of pristine snow glittering in the sunshine, with the jagged peaks of the Caucasus dominating the horizon in every direction. In the summer, the slopes are lush and green and woven with hiking trails. The air is crisp and fresh – a nice break from the busy streets of Tbilisi.
The fastest way to get to Gudauri will be with a pre-booked taxi or minibus waiting to whisk you off on arrival.
The most economical way to travel to Gudauri is by bus. Shared transport options will be more budget friendly as you will be sharing the travel with other passengers.
And the cheapest option is to take a local minibus (marshrutka) from Didube bus station. Take the red line metro in the city centre and get off at Didube. The bus station is big and can seem chaotic.
