Choosing where to pick up the car
A rental company sets its own pick-up place. Check the specific offer before deciding when and where to collect the car.
If offered
At Kutaisi Airport
Airport pick-up may suit a trip that starts on arrival, but is available only when the rental company offers it.
Where offered
In the city
If a company offers a pick-up place in Kutaisi, you can spend time in the city first and collect the car when you leave.
Company terms
Delivery or another return city
Hotel delivery and one-way return depend on the company and the specific offer. Confirm them with the company.
Driving around Kutaisi
In town
Parking and signs
Check signs and markings where you park. Ask the rental company how parking charges and fines are handled.
Out of town
Roads, weather and access
Road and weather conditions can change, and protected areas set their own visiting arrangements. Check them before leaving and follow local restrictions.
Your documents
Licence and rental terms
The company sets its document requirements. Whether a foreign licence is valid in Georgia depends on where it was issued and how long you stay; check the current official rules.
Car rental in Kutaisi: questions
How do I search for a car in Kutaisi?
Choose Kutaisi and your pick-up and return dates and times. The search carries those choices to the results; published offers are matched by dates. Confirm the handover time with the rental company.
What if there are no results?
No local company has a published offer for the selected dates. Try other dates or another destination in Georgia; no car or price is shown without a real published offer.
Can I pick up a car at Kutaisi Airport?
Only if the rental company offers airport pick-up. Check the specific offer and confirm the handover place with the company.
Can the car be delivered to my hotel?
Only if the rental company offers delivery. Check its terms and agree the place directly with the company.
Can I return the car in another city?
One-way return depends on the rental company. Check the specific offer and confirm the return place before you plan your route.
Who sets the price, deposit and conditions?
The rental company sets them. Read the specific published offer; GetnDrive does not invent prices or rental conditions.
Whom do I pay for the rental?
You pay the rental company directly. GetnDrive does not take the rental payment or deposit.
Is insurance included?
Cover depends on the rental company and its offer. Check what is included and any exclusions before you decide.
Will my foreign driving licence be accepted?
The rental company can tell you which documents it requires. Whether a foreign licence is valid in Georgia depends on the country of issue and your length of stay; check the current official rules before travel.
Do I need a car within Kutaisi itself?
You may prefer to explore the centre on foot. A car becomes more useful for trips to the monasteries, caves and canyons around the city.
Where can I go from Kutaisi by car?
Gelati and Sataplia are close to the city, Prometheus Cave and the Okatse Canyon lie to the north-west, and the Martvili Canyon is in neighbouring Samegrelo. Check current access and conditions for the day you travel.
