F.A.Q

How to prepare for the tour

MEETING TIME AND PLACE

We meet at 09:00 at  Samaia Garden. Please be on time. In case of any delays, please inform your guide. Otherwise, the group will depart without you.

 

WEATHER

Georgian weather changes often and fast. For this reason, it's essential to follow the weather forecast closely.

Here is the weather forecast. Please check it the night before the tour to be well prepared.

 

WHAT TO WEAR

Please wear clothes appropriate to the weather. Paravani is called Georgian Siberia for a reason. It will be very cold. You must wear a proper winter jacket, a hat, a scarf, gloves, warm shoes, and so on. Wear layers.

 

FOOD & DRINKS

Always make sure you have enough drinking water. 1.5-2 liters should be enough for the day. Please make sure to bring snacks - sandwiches, dried fruit, and sweets. They will help you maintain your energy level until lunch. Since it will be cold, a thermos with hot tea or coffee is also a good idea.

 

OTHER ESSENTIAL ITEMS

If you are prone to motion sickness, please have medicine with you. Bring a day pack to carry important items with you.
