Step Out of Town and Into the Foothills

Just a short drive from Zugdidi, the village of Oshkhamakhvani offers a gentle taste of rural Samegrelo life. This private half-day tour takes you into the forest-lined edges of the low mountains, past gardens, family plots, and quiet roads where time moves slower.

Depending on the season and your interest, you can visit a local household, enjoy a light meal or coffee outdoors, or take a short forest walk with great valley views. The route is ideal for relaxed travelers who want to get off the main road without going too far. Pickup is available from anywhere in Georgia.
