Getting there
Planes
Most international flights touch down at Tbilisi International Airport, from where it’s less than two hours by road to Telavi.
Automobiles
Unless you’re planning a multi-centre trip, you won’t need wheels to explore the city itself, as most of it is walkable and taxis are in plentiful (affordable) supply.
