About this activity

A comprehensive 15-hour canyon expedition from Tbilisi showcasing Georgia's most dramatic gorges and waterfalls, covering over 625 km to reach Okatse Trail, Kinchkha Waterfall, Martvili Canyon, and Balda Canyon. This all-in-one tour combines otherworldly geology, cascading water features, and remote hiking for a complete immersion into the Caucasus landscape.

Private full day tour to Canyons of Georgia (Okatse Trail, Kinchkha Waterfall, Martvili, Balda) from Tbilisi includes visiting the best canyons and one of the biggest waterfalls in Georgia. Total drive 625 km (385 miles).

Highlights

  • Hike the suspended Okatse Trail with vertigo-inducing cliff-edge views
  • Witness Kinchkha Waterfall, one of Georgia's most powerful cascades
  • Navigate the narrow limestone channels of Martvili Canyon by foot
  • Explore the lesser-known Balda Canyon's dramatic rock formations
  • 625 km round-trip scenic drive through varied Georgian terrain

Insider tips

  • Wear grippy hiking shoes with good ankle support—canyon trails are rocky and occasionally slippery near water
  • Start early to maximise daylight; sunset occurs by 5–6 pm in winter, cutting exploration time short
  • Bring sun protection and a light waterproof layer; canyon bottoms can be cool and misty even on warm days
  • Pack snacks and water—services are sparse between stops, and the long drive means fewer meal opportunities

Good to know

  • Moderate to high fitness level required; expect 4–5 hours of active hiking across uneven, steep terrain
  • Private tour format; confirm group size and vehicle type (minivan vs. larger bus) at booking
  • Lunch and entrance fees not included in base price—budget additional EUR 25–40
  • Pickup and drop-off from central Tbilisi hotels typically included; confirm exact meeting point 24 hours before
  • Not wheelchair accessible due to canyon hiking and trail conditions

Who it's for
