Why Rent a Car in Batumi?
Batumi's boulevard and old town are easily walkable, but a car opens up Adjara's mountains, waterfalls, and coastal towns that public transport barely reaches.
Getting Your Car
Book online ahead of time and pick up your car at Batumi International Airport or a central downtown location - every BZAUTOHUB.COM rental includes full insurance, unlimited mileage, and 24/7 support.
Best Day Trips From Batumi
- Mtirala National Park - rainforest trails and waterfalls, about 30 minutes inland
- Makhuntseti Waterfall and the historic arched bridge - roughly 1 hour
- Gonio Fortress - an ancient Roman-era fortress just south of the city, 15-20 minutes
- Keda and the Adjara mountain villages - a scenic half-day loop into the highlands
Tips for Driving in Adjara
- Coastal roads are well-paved; mountain routes into the highlands can be narrower and winding
- Summer weekends get busy along the boulevard - allow extra time for parking downtown
- An SUV is worth considering if you're heading up into the Adjara highlands beyond Keda
Combine With Tbilisi
Many travelers pair Batumi with Tbilisi - the drive between the two takes around 5-6 hours via the main highway, making a one-way rental (pick up in one city, drop off in the other) a convenient option.
