After breakfast our tour begins with a trip to Ananuri, a fortress complex located along the turquoise waters of the Aragvi River. It is a prime example of Georgia's architectural beauty; it was the home of the feudal dukes of Aragvi during the 18th century, and was the starting point of many of the battles fought by the Georgians. After that we set off on an amazing journey to Gudauri, driving along a river for about two hours through beautiful valleys and forests until we reach Gudauri, a region that is green in summer and white in winter.

Gudauri offers many more activities, such as paragliding. We will enjoy some time there; you can sit by the river and enjoy a barbecue party, or ride rubber boats, 4x4 vehicles or horses, then return for the overnight stay.
