Depending on your holiday itinerary, you can rent your 4×4 and camping equipment with iDrive4x4 year round. We can help you suggest routes that suit your travel period. 

Safety

Travel in Georgia is not dangerous. It can even be considered as very safe. The local people are welcoming you with open arms, making it a very safe and pleasant experience. 

 

There are some best practices for travelling through Georgia. Since Georgia shares a border with Russia, there are certain border areas that can not be entered. These areas are clearly marked on the maps and we recommend avoiding them in your travel plans. Other than that there are no further travel restrictions in Georgia. 

 

Besides that, we receive many questions about the current situation in Ukraine and the related security in Georgia. There are no additional safety concerns in Georgia, except that you need to be ‘street smart’ as you should be in any other country where you go on holiday. Make sure you check for the latest updates from your government.
