RACA TOURS REVIEW
The Racha region, known as the "Georgian Switzerland", is located in northwestern Georgia. This place is famous for its lakes, picturesque alpine landscapes and vineyards. Here is the village of Khvanchkara, everyone probably knows the wine of the same name, grown in this region. However, we will not talk about the drink.
Racha is ideal for hiking, especially in summer, when the weather is not hot and comfortable for walking. Just 3.5 hours drive from Tbilisi and you are already admiring “Georgian Switzerland”. Until now, this area remains relatively little known among tourists. And this makes it an excellent location for exploring authentic Georgian culture. We never stop sharing the beauty of this region on our trips. All our routes include: camping equipment, transfer and meals, an experienced guide throughout the journey.
In this selection of Tours to Racha, everyone will find for themselves that original piece of Georgia, not touristy and very picturesque.
This tour is for those who aren't in a rush to explore. After all, the locals of Racha are renowned for their leisurely and measured lifestyle, so why not emulate that?

We'll admire Lake Shaori against a backdrop of fluffy fir trees, visit a 3000-meter pass, ascend to the beautiful Lake Udziro, and conquer the Buba Glacier. This six-day tour to Racha will be a memorable experience for all mountain tourism enthusiasts. It's like a complete reboot.
