What people are saying about this trip
Tobi
We've been visting Georgia in March and we had the best trip you can possibly wish for. Literally everything from the beginning to the end was taken care of by the Guides. Great choice of areas and tours for all conditions we had. From challenging couloirs to deep powder pockets we got all we could wish for in a week! It's wild out there but we would come back anytime!
Kelley
My group spent 6 days of skiing in late March. We skied Tetnuldi resort, went cat skiiing, heli skiing, and touring in Ushguli. Nika and Dato were great guides, very safe, professional, and fun to ski with. The snow was amazing, same with the food and the culture. I would highly recommend this trip and can’t wait to come back.
