Explore Everyday Life in Rural Racha

This private outing takes you into the lower valleys of Racha where locals live in small farming hamlets surrounded by apple orchards, walnut trees, and hand-tilled gardens. You’ll meet real families still following seasonal rhythms, storing firewood, tending vines, or harvesting heirloom produce depending on the time of year. With our local driver, you can stop for tastings, explore traditional stone homes, and enjoy a side of Georgia many miss.

Village & Orchard Route

This ride explores the lower valley settlements between Ambrolauri and the outskirts of Oni. Stops may include small fruit farms, roadside stalls, or open barns where food is being dried or stored. Depending on the season, you might see plowing by hand, walnut husking, or natural fruit drying in progress. We avoid touristy staging in favor of real-life local rhythm.

Vehicle & Access

We use comfortable vehicles with drivers from Racha who know the valley roads well. This tour is low-speed and designed for cultural immersion, not rush. If there’s something specific you’d like to learn about, preserves, wood ovens, beekeeping, let us know in advance.

Timing & Price

The full loop takes 3 to 5 hours, depending on the number of stops and whether lunch or tasting is included. Prices start from $130 per vehicle (up to 6 guests). Groups, longer day trips, or seasonal farming add-ons available on request.

See Racha at Its Most Real

This is a tour for slow travelers, people curious about how others live, work, and grow food in mountain regions. Whether you’re coming for stories, traditions, or just the peace of being away from the modern rush, our drivers will help you access the quiet corners where daily life quietly continues. Pickup available from any town or region.
