I guess this is a stupid question - but I have a ticket to Kutaisi... I know there's a direct bus to Tbilisi. I have 4 nights stay. I'm hesitant to take a 4 hour bus ride to Tbilisi (I'm planning 3 nights) and then take the train back ( and one night in Kutaisi)... I've never been to Georgia before. Is it worth it to go to Tbilisi or better to plan the whole time in Kutaisi? I'm alone and don't plan to rent a car (probably...). So just advice from experienced Georgians...:)
That's what discussions are for, this is about airports. Otherwise, Tbilisi is nicer. 🙂
For me definitely to Tbilisi, we stayed for 4 nights, also without a car, we moved only by buses and taxis and managed to see Tbilisi, Mtskheta and Kutaisi...
