Georgia, a small country with a large and complicated history lies right at the border of Europe and Asia. For a long time largely unknown among international travelers, recently it has become somewhat of a hotspot for off-beaten-experience lovers. CaucasTours, one of the most prominent travel companies specialising in adventure tours in Georgia, offers various horseback riding experiences that take travelers into the heart of the country`s majestic mountains.

CaucasTours` horse riding adventures are specifically designed to let travelers explore Georgia`s most remote and beautiful regions. Their tour length varies. The shortest lasting a weekend, like exploring Pankisi Valley or semi-desert "savannah" in Vashlovani National Park, while the longest lasts for about two weeks and covers multiple regions, including Kazbegi, Khevsureti and Tusheti.

The terrain is diverse and mesmerizing, with alpine meadows, ancient forests, and historic villages often included in the routes. Many of them follow historical trails used for centuries by local highlanders, offering a glimpse into Georgia`s rich cultural heritage along with the dramatic mountain scenery.

Those who are looking for a more leisurely stroll while getting deeper in touch with local culture should check out the tour exploring vineyards in the premier wine-producing region of Kakheti. It can be particularly rewarding if you’re interested in authentic Georgian cuisine featuring local and seasonal ingredients, as the Kakheti tour specifically offers ample opportunities to enjoy the country`s renowned wine.
Tours are designed for different experience levels, with comprehensive safety briefings and riding instruction provided. Group sizes are intentionally small so that the experience leaves minimal environmental impact. If none of the standard tours the company offers are to your taste, you can simply get in touch and they’ll design an itinerary that is specifically tailored to your interests.

Each tour is held on the backs of well-trained Tushetian horses, known for their exceptional strength and intelligence. The company takes great care to select horses that match riders" comfort levels. All necessary riding equipment and safety gear are provided. Ground transportation between locations is included in specific itineraries if necessary. At night, travelers get to stay with local families in carefully selected guesthouses or at a camp (depending on the route).
If you`re more experienced with horses and want something more adventurous, CaucasTours has more unique tours as well, such as participation in the traditional seasonal herding of horses to summer and winter pastures – a centuries-old working tradition that can cover hundreds of kilometers.
CaucasTours specializes in authentic Georgian experiences. All tours are guided by local experts who know their specific regions` terrain, culture, and history like their own hands. This approach guarantees travelers receive more than a standard tour, while benefiting the local community at the same time. The company is determined to popularize sustainable tourism practices in the country, with each tour carefully planned to leave as little human impact on the route as possible.
