Kazbegi:Hiking to Gveleti Waterfall

Wonderful and quick must-do tour in Kazbegi with a great tour guide and driver. Good times, good views, good company.

Beautiful experience. Time of tour was perfect. Short and sweet. Price was worth it.

An excellent experience in Kazbegi! From the booking until the end, the whole experience was smooth. The father and son guide and driver (sorry forgot your names!) offered such positive energy and interaction. I wish they would organise all tour experiences in Georgia, we loved their friendliness and welcoming attitude! The hike to waterfall was a magnificent way to experience Georgian nature. Would love to visit again!

Great communication, friendly people, enjoyed the hike. It took less than the time stated but was still enjoyable

The activity was well organized and planned, and took place in the set time - the actual hiking was a bit more than an hour to a pretty waterfall. What's important to know is that there are a few more steep climbs and you are at a high altitude. I got dizzy and needed to stop a bit to acclimate. The guide was good about staying back with me and making sure I was OK. It is not a particularly complex hike, but I would recommend good shoes and just be careful if you are someone who is affected by high altitude.

George was a fantastic guide ,he made sure everyone was safe. He is very experienced and he gave us time to rest ,enjoy the landscape and take pictures.

I was even picked up from the hotel, both the driver Georgi and the tourist guide Gerga speak very good English and are very friendly and open-minded. The hike to the waterfall is relatively short, only 2 km, but one is simply impressed by the beauty of the waterfall. I can only recommend this beautiful tour to everyone. It's not exhausting and fun and you have a great goal.

Super friendly guide who took me to the big and little waterfalls. It was just me today so it felt very personalized. Thanks for the great day!

Lasha was a great guide! He was very knowledgeable about the area. The hike to the waterfalls were breathtaking!

Me and my girlfriend booked this trip at the beginning of June. It was a great day and i can only recommend you to try it as well. Soso, who was our guide and who has a lot of experience in guiding tours in Georgia, was not only wonderful company, but he also spoke perfect English. He wrote us on Whatsapp prior to the tour to talk about some details. As we only had a small group (only really great people from different nations) they were able to pick us up at the restaurant where we were having lunch. After meeting everybody we drove to the first hike, it was a beautiful hike up through a small valley to an amazing waterfall. the hike is not very long, but there is a bit of elevation. If you're not super fit, it won't be a problem as the group can take its time and go on a reasonable pace. We did enjoy the nature and the waterfall and Soso helped us to take some great pictures :) Next up we drove to the Juta Valley Village. Unfortunately it started to rain and we discussed amongst the group what to do. We decided to go up anyways, which was a great idea. we got completetly wet but at the top of the hill there was the fifth season hostel/restaurant which is an absolutely amazing place. It reminded me of a Alps style mountain hut but with a modern twist and huge windows to enjoy the nature. they had ovens to heat us and to have us dry our clothes and they served amazing food (Soso recommended the potatoe-mash & cheese khachapuri which was very delicious), wine and tea (understandably, it's a little bit more expensive than down hill, so bring a bit of cash!). Afterwards, we hiked back down (it was pretty slippery after the rain, i definetly advise to bring good shoes just in case the weather gets bad) and drove back to Kazbegi where we started the tour. They offer to bring you back to Tbilisi, but we wanted to stay one more night in the mountains. Talk to your Guide, maybe they can transfer you to Tbilisi on the next day if you want to stay (that's what we did). Thanks for the great day and we'll be back :)
