This is an eight day trekking tour from Omalo (Tusheti) to Kazbegi region. This is one of the most popular trekking tours in the whole country owing to the fact that the landscapes seen during the tour are truly unique and do not look like other mountainous landscapes from Europe. Tusheti is one of the most remote regions of Georgia which can only be reached during 6 months a year while during the other six months the road is closed owing to avalanches. The architecture there with its beautiful towers and local black stones creates special atmosphere. It is important to note that the first and the last days of the tour will be dedicated for transfers while the total number of trekking days equals to six. From these six days the guests will have to stay in tents only for two nights while the other overnight stays will be done in guesthouses. The trekking guide, tents, yoga mats, dinner, lunch and breakfast as well as luggage transportation with horses are all included in the price.
