Frequently asked questions and answers
Are 2 days enough to have a good ride?
Yes. The program is designed to maximize skiing on both days: an early departure from Tbilisi on the first day allows for a full day on the slopes immediately upon arrival, and on the second day, skiing continues until you drop off your gear before departure. Essentially, you'll have two full days of skiing, not just a day of travel and one day on the slopes.
Do you need any riding experience?
No. The format is suitable for both beginners and experienced riders. If you've never skied or snowboarded before, we recommend taking the instructor-led lesson option (either group or private) – this will speed up your learning curve and make your first day more comfortable.
Is it possible to leave not from Tbilisi, but from Batumi?
Yes, the program includes a departure option from Batumi. Please confirm the time and cost of this option when booking, as the route and travel time may differ from those in Tbilisi.
What to do if you don’t have your own equipment?
No problem—the resort reserves rental equipment (skis and snowboards from beginner to advanced levels) for your group in advance. If something isn't the right fit or feel, you can exchange it during the day at no extra charge.
Is it possible to go alone, without company?
Yes, this is a group tour—you join a pre-established group, get to know and ski with other participants, and a guide accompanies the entire group around the resort.
Is it worth taking a tour with training if I have already skied a little?
Even if you've had some experience, albeit inconsistent, training is still beneficial. The Gudauri tour with training includes a technique review with an instructor, who will help you solidify proper movements and gain confidence on more challenging sections of the trail. For complete beginners, one lesson over two days provides the foundation for independent skiing on green and blue slopes.
