TripAdvisor, a leading online travel platform, has placed Georgia’s Gudauri ski resort among the top five underrated ski towns in Europe to visit this winter.
Yolanda Evans, the writer of the article and a participant in the Georgian National Tourism Administration’s press tour, suggests Gudauri as an ideal destination for those looking to ski on a budget.
The article explains that travelers can easily book private transfers to Gudauri, just a two-hour drive from Tbilisi, for around $60, or opt for an affordable transport or minivan service for just over $3.50.
Gudauri Ski Resort offers a budget-friendly experience, with daily ski passes priced at about $9 and ski rentals under $20. For more seasoned skiers, Evans recommends experiencing the weekend night skiing.
Beyond skiing, the article highlights various off-slope activities for visitors. These include a jeep tour along the scenic Georgian Military Road, where travelers can explore historical sites such as the Ananuri Fortress and Gergeti Trinity Church. For those seeking more thrills, paragliding is available, with most tours starting around $100 and offering memorable photos and videos of the adventure.
Travelers are also encouraged to take some time to discover Tbilisi before or after their ski trip.
