The road
North from Yerevan via Ashtarak and Spitak (or over the Pushkin pass from Dilijan) to Vanadzor, down the Debed canyon past Alaverdi to the Bagratashen–Sadakhlo crossing, then Marneuli and Tbilisi.

- Want Lake Sevan and Dilijan too? Book our Yerevan → Tbilisi via Dilijan, Haghpat & Sanahin trip (from $280).
Good to know
- Lower price with a car change at the border: an Armenian car takes you to Bagratashen, you walk through both passport controls, and a Georgian car is waiting on the other side — from $220 for a sedan. Tick “Car change at the border” in the calculator.
- With one car the whole way you walk through passport control with your bags while the driver takes the car through; have your passport ready.
- Most nationalities enter Georgia visa-free for up to a year — check your passport before you go.
