Arrival at Batumi Airport
Batumi International Airport (BUS) sits a short drive south of the city centre, close to the Turkish border, so it is one of the fastest airport-to-hotel routes in Georgia. The terminal is small: arrivals, a short walk to the car park, and you are on the coast road within minutes. There is no rail link, so a rental car, a taxi or a hotel transfer are the main ways onward.
Most local suppliers work on a meet-and-greet basis rather than a staffed counter: a representative waits in the arrivals hall with a name sign and walks you to the car nearby. Add your flight number when you book so delays can be tracked — several international and charter flights land in the evening or after midnight. Confirm whether a night pick-up carries an extra fee before you pay.
Checking the car before you drive off
Walk around the car with the supplier's representative first, and photograph the bodywork, wheels and windscreen. Note the fuel level and odometer on the contract, check the spare wheel and both key fobs, and test the lights and air conditioning in the car park. Ask whether winter tyres or chains are fitted if you are travelling in the colder months, and save the supplier's phone number before you leave.
The drive into Batumi
The airport sits on the coast road a short drive from the centre, with light traffic outside the evening rush. For more pick-up points, neighbourhoods and things to do, see car rental in Batumi.
Onward drives from the airport
The airport sits directly on the coast road, so the first stretch of most trips has no mountain passes to worry about.
- Sarpi and the Turkish border — about 15 km south, about 25 minutes; a popular half-day trip for the beach and seafood even without crossing over. Taking a rental car into Turkey is prohibited under the current general rental terms, so treat Sarpi as a walk-across visit rather than a drive-through.
- Kobuleti — about 40 km north, about 55 minutes, a quieter beach town and an easy day trip or an alternative base.
- Kutaisi — about 150 km, 2–2.5 hours on the main highway through the coastal lowlands; a common one-way route for travellers flying out from there instead.
- Goderdzi Pass and mountain Adjara — The Akhaltsikhe–Batumi route over the Goderdzi Pass is prohibited for rental cars, even with four-wheel drive. In mountain Adjara, rental cars may use only paved public roads.
These are approximate drive times outside peak traffic; allow extra time at the Sarpi crossing in high season and on the inland road in wet weather.

Booking & payment
Can I pay in cash or by debit card?
Yes. Cash at pick-up is accepted for 100% of the cars listed at Batumi Airport, and 508 cars (43%) also take card payment. About 15–20% of the rental price is paid online when you book; the balance is paid at pickup.
Can I rent a car at Batumi Airport without a deposit?
Yes: 908 of the cars listed at Batumi Airport (77%) need no deposit, from $37 a day. Use the “No deposit” filter in the search. For the other cars the deposit amount is shown on each offer before you book.
Pick-up & return
Is there car rental at Batumi Airport?
Yes. Local suppliers offer cars for pick-up at Batumi International Airport, most on a meet-and-greet basis rather than a fixed counter. Look for your driver holding a name sign once you clear customs and collect your luggage, and add your flight number when you book so delays can be tracked.
How far is Batumi Airport from the city centre?
About 5 km, roughly 10–15 minutes by road along the coast. It is one of the shortest airport transfers in Georgia, so a rental car, taxi or hotel transfer can all get you to the seafront quickly, even on a short stopover.
Can I pick up a car at Batumi Airport late at night?
Usually yes, by arrangement, since several international and charter flights land in the evening or after midnight. Some suppliers add an out-of-hours fee, which should be shown in the offer before you book, so confirm the exact pick-up window and any surcharge when you reserve the car.
What should I check before driving off from the airport?
Photograph the bodywork, check the fuel level and odometer against the contract, and confirm the spare wheel, jack and both key fobs are present. Test the lights and air conditioning in the car park, and save the supplier's phone number in case you need to reach them later on the road.
Can I drive a rental car from Batumi Airport into Turkey?
No. Taking a rental car into Turkey is prohibited under the current general rental terms, even though the Sarpi border crossing is close by. Treat Sarpi as a day visit on foot instead.
Can I return the car somewhere other than Batumi Airport?
Yes, one-way rentals are common. A popular route is dropping the car in Kutaisi or Tbilisi if you fly out from a different airport; any one-way fee is shown in the offer before you book, so compare it against the cost of a domestic flight or transfer back to Batumi.
Roads & trips
Which car should I choose for the Goderdzi Pass and mountain Adjara?
The Akhaltsikhe–Batumi route over the Goderdzi Pass is prohibited for rental cars: four-wheel drive does not lift the ban. In mountain Adjara, rental cars may use only paved public roads.
