Getting to Gudauri
Gudauri is a ski resort about 120 km north of Tbilisi on the Georgian Military Highway. The drive takes about 2.5 hours without snow. The road passes Ananuri fortress and the Zhinvali reservoir, then climbs through switchbacks to the resort.
The highway is paved all the way. Above the resort it continues over the Jvari Pass (about 2,400 m) to Kazbegi; the pass and its winter closures are described on the Kazbegi page.
Pick up in Tbilisi or get the car delivered
There are two ways to have a car in Gudauri. You can pick it up in Tbilisi or at Tbilisi Airport and drive up yourself. Or a supplier can deliver it to your hotel at the resort; any delivery fee is shown in the offer before you book.
Driving yourself gives you the car for stops on the way and for a day trip to Kazbegi. Delivery suits skiers who only need a car for a few days at the resort and prefer not to drive the last switchbacks with ski gear after a flight.
Driving to Gudauri in ski season
The ski season runs roughly from December to April. In these months the switchbacks below the resort and the roads inside it can be icy. Four-wheel drive does not replace winter tyres on snow and ice.
Ask for winter tyres or snow chains when you book. If you bring skis or a snowboard, book a car with a roof rack: racks are fitted before pick-up, not on request at the resort. Drive up in daylight, and check the road status before you set out after heavy snowfall.
Most hotels have their own parking or a parking area nearby. Spaces close to the lifts fill up on busy weekends, so ask your hotel about parking when you book.
Gudauri in summer
From late spring to autumn the road has no snow or ice and any car is enough. Gudauri is known for tandem paragliding over the Aragvi valley, and hiking trails start from the resort. Many visitors stop here on the way to or from Kazbegi rather than stay several nights.
Which car for Gudauri
In summer, or on a clear winter day, a compact car is enough. For a snowy arrival, or if you continue over the Jvari Pass, a car with four-wheel or all-wheel drive gives more grip, but only together with winter tyres. The 4x4 and SUV guide explains the difference between an SUV and a four-wheel-drive car.

Booking & payment
Can I pay in cash or by debit card?
Yes. Cash at pick-up is accepted for 100% of the cars listed in Gudauri, and 201 cars (26%) 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 in Gudauri without a deposit?
Yes: 674 of the cars listed in Gudauri (86%) need no deposit, from $29 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.
How far in advance should I book a rental car in Gudauri?
In today's listings 583 cars are available for pick-up in 3 days (from $30 a day) and 781 two weeks ahead (from $29 a day). Prices also follow the season, and 52% of offers can be cancelled for free, so booking early usually costs little.
Prices
Is Gudauri worth visiting outside the ski season?
Yes, as a stop on the way to Kazbegi. In summer the road is easy for any car, the resort is known for tandem paragliding and hiking trails with views over the Aragvi valley.
Pick-up & return
Can a rental car be delivered to my hotel in Gudauri?
Yes. Suppliers can deliver the car to your hotel at the resort; any delivery fee is shown in the offer before you book. Many visitors instead pick up in Tbilisi and drive up themselves, which also gives them the car for a day trip to Kazbegi.
Roads & trips
Do I need a 4x4 to drive to Gudauri?
Usually not. The road is paved and an ordinary car manages it outside heavy snowfall. Four-wheel drive does not replace winter tyres on snow and ice. A four-wheel or all-wheel-drive car helps most if you continue over the Jvari Pass to Kazbegi.
Do I need winter tyres or snow chains for Gudauri?
From about December to April, yes: ask for winter tyres when you book, and chains if you expect fresh snow. The roads below and inside the resort can be icy even when the highway in the valley is clear.
Other questions
How far is Gudauri from Tbilisi?
About 120 km on the Georgian Military Highway, which takes about 2.5 hours without snow. The road is paved all the way. In winter, allow extra time for the switchbacks below the resort and drive up in daylight.
Can I rent a car with a ski or snowboard rack?
Yes. 218 cars can be booked with a ski or snowboard rack. Choose it when you book: the rack is fitted before pick-up, not added at the resort.
Where can I park in Gudauri?
Most hotels have their own parking or an area nearby. Spaces close to the lifts fill up on busy weekends, and a few small guesthouses have little space, so ask your hotel about parking when you book.
