Short and to the pointHow much does car rental cost for Kazbegi?
From $30 a day. Kazbegi is the most popular day trip from Tbilisi, and it’s best experienced by rental car: you can stop at Ananuri, Zhinvali and the Friendship Arch for as long as you like, instead of rushing past on a transfer.
Do I need an SUV to reach Kazbegi?
No. The Georgian Military Road to Stepantsminda is paved and cleared in winter (the resort of Gudauri is 30 km away, and the road is kept in order for it). An ordinary sedan handles it year-round. People take an SUV not because of road quality, but for peace of mind on the Cross Pass during snowfall — but that’s optional.
How long is the drive from Tbilisi to Kazbegi?
About 155 km and 2.5–3 hours one way without stops (faster on the way back — downhill from the mountains). With stops at all the points along the way, allow a full day. In summer traffic is heavier due to trucks nearer the border, so it’s better to set off early.
Can I drive a rental car up to Gergeti Church?
To the village of Stepantsminda (Kazbegi) itself — yes, easily. And there’s now good asphalt up to the Gergeti Trinity Church at the top: an ordinary sedan makes the climb calmly in dry weather. In winter or heavy rain it’s worth taking the steep ascent carefully, but overall you can reach it in any car — just adjust your pace to the weather and season.
What about the road in winter?
In winter the Gudauri–Kobi stretch on the Cross Pass is sometimes closed due to avalanche risk — from a couple of hours to a couple of days. If you’re travelling in the cold season, check the road status before setting off; if the pass is closed, you can reach Stepantsminda by a detour via the Kobi–Gudauri cable car.
Can I get the car in Tbilisi and drive to Kazbegi?
Yes, that’s the most common scenario. You take the car in Tbilisi (enter the address on the site — delivery is factored into the price right away, and within the city during the day it’s often free) and drive along the Georgian Military Road. You can choose to return it back in Tbilisi or in another city.
What documents do I need to rent a car?
A passport and a driving licence — that’s enough. Georgia doesn’t require an International Driving Permit; all that matters is that your first and last name on the licence are also written in Latin letters.
Do I need an international driving licence?
No. Georgia accepts national licences — the key is that your name and surname are duplicated in Latin letters. You don’t need to get a separate International Driving Permit.
What’s the minimum age to rent a car?
Most cars on MY.DRIVE are available from age 21 with at least 2 years of driving experience. Some models have a higher bar (23–25) — you’ll see it in the terms of the specific car before booking.
Is a deposit required?
It varies by car. Many cars require no deposit at all, others do; the exact amount and terms are shown on the car’s page before you confirm the booking. You can filter for no-deposit options if that matters to you.
What’s included in the rental price?
Usually insurance is already included, and for most cars so is unlimited mileage. The full price is shown on the car’s page before booking — no “extra charges on the spot”. Check the specifics in each car’s terms.
Is there a mileage limit?
On most MY.DRIVE offers mileage is unlimited, but some rates come with a cap — check the terms of the specific car. This matters especially on long trips like Tbilisi–Batumi or a loop around Kakheti.
Can I take the rental car abroad?
No. Taking any of our cars outside Georgia is prohibited. Note separately that visiting Abkhazia and South Ossetia is both forbidden and effectively impossible.
Where can’t I drive a rental car within Georgia?
A few destinations are off-limits for rentals — hard-to-reach mountain regions: Tusheti (Omalo), Khevsureti (Shatili, Mutso), the road to the Truso Valley, the Vashlovani reserve, and the Trans-Adjarian road Khulo–Goderdzi. There’s either no proper road there or it’s dangerous for a passenger car. Everywhere else in the country is fine.
Are there cars with automatic transmission?
Yes, MY.DRIVE has plenty of automatics — the gearbox type is shown on the car’s page and you can filter by it right away. An automatic is fine for mountain routes too, but on steep climbs it’s nicer to have some power in reserve, so don’t pick the weakest engine.
Can I add a child seat?
Usually yes — a child seat is often available on request, sometimes for a small extra fee. Mention it when booking so the seat is definitely in the car at pickup.
Can I go off-road?
No. Any off-roading — leaving public roads for rough terrain or river fords — is prohibited on all cars, and insurance doesn’t cover such trips. Reach even mountain sights via normal roads; if a place can only be reached off-road, people use local transport there.
What to do in a breakdown or accident?
First, contact the rental provider — the details are in your contract, and MY.DRIVE support will help you get your bearings. In an accident, document it by the rules (call the patrol police, take photos), otherwise insurance may not apply. The exact steps and coverage depend on the insurance you chose — check at the booking stage. Don’t try to hide damage: using the insurance will definitely be cheaper than paying for repairs yourself.
How do I book a car online?
Pick your dates and pickup location, find a suitable car and submit a request — confirmation comes quickly. If your plans change, support is available on Telegram and by phone.
