Kazbegi Amazing Tour
Description
What to see on the road to Stepantsminda (Kazbegi)- Kazbegi (since 2007 renamed Stepantsminda) is the first large settlement on the Georgian side of the Georgian Military Highway. The sights of Kazbegi include natural and architectural monuments that are worth seeing. Old Mount Kazbek is actually an extinct volcano that last erupted 2.5 thousand years ago. Church Gergeti, against the background of Kazbeg is not just a view from a postcard, it is a sight without which it is impossible to say, that a person has been in Georgia. The building itself looks quite ascetic, it is not replete with luxurious decorations, architectural delights. Kazbegi tour is the secrets of the four gorges.

Itinerary
Zhinvali reservoir - Despite the fact that the word “reservoir” can create an association of a territory with a large number of iron reservoirs for water, everything is exactly the oppoite. Located 70 km from Tbilisi, Zhinvali is striking in its beauty and in relief it is very similar to the Scandinavian fjords.
Fortress Ananuri - Ananuri fortress is located 70 kilometers from the capital. Back in 1723, King Teimuraz and the Kakhetians hid here from the attacks of the Avars, who unsuccessfully tried to besiege and seize the fortress. Ananuri (end of the 16th century), the main stronghold on the Georgian Military Highway, was very popular with travelers, as it is located at the confluence of the Aragvi and the Wajathevi River.
Friendship of Nations Arch - The panoramic view that opens at the Cross Pass from this unique architectural structure, can not leave anyone indifferent. The arch stands at an altitude of 2384 meters. Located on the observation deck of the people will feel the true power of the Caucasian rocky nature.
Kazbegi (Stepantsminda) - So often described in poetic and prosaic works of various writers, Kazbek is the second highest point in Georgia after the "Shkhara". It is unique and the fact that the territory of Stepantsminda is a temple called "Gergeti". It was built in the 14th century. The construction of the temple is worth special attention, because all materials were manually raised to a huge height.

Interesting tour. Good guide. Only pity is you get cramped into a minibus with as many seats as possible so no legroom at all. Would have booked different operator had I known, even if it came at an extra cost given the time you spend in the bus.
It was a good experience and the group were nice! Thanks Alex for arranging everything! We had free time to walk around and take photos and the tour guide was trying so hard to make the atmosphere positive and relaxing.
An amazing journey from Tbilisi to the breathtaking landscapes of the Kazbeg mountains. A once in a lifetime journey. Thank you Alex !!! It was a fun filled travel experience. My family and I were so grateful for taking care of us during the trip. Kudos to you and to your team.
Спасибо большое буду рад вас всегда
We spent eight days of tour in central and eastern Georgia with Aleko Makharadze. We drove a couple thousand kilometers with a beautiful interlocutor, learning people, history, nature! Aleko's awareness, mobility, patience, openness and friendliness are striking! Glad to have placed our full trust in his choice of places, cities, museums and attractions visited. And the smiles and laughter from his stories and anecdotes never left us. When we came to this country, we made a friend. We will visit the western and southern part of Georgia with him and only him, God willing, the next time we arrive. We wish Aleko well, good luck in his difficult business and, of course, generous guests! With respect and a deep Slavic bow, not a large group of Belarusians...
