Choose the right vehicle for your trip and explore Batumi, the Black Sea coast, and destinations across Georgia at your own pace. With Car Rent Deme, enjoy a convenient and comfortable car rental experience from Batumi Airport.

Car Rental at Batumi Airport — Your Car Ready the Moment You Land

Start your Georgia trip with a convenient car rental at Batumi International Airport. With Car Rent Deme, you can choose from reliable SUVs, hybrids, and family cars and get on the road without waiting for taxis or relying on public transport.

Whether you’re staying in Batumi, visiting Kobuleti or Gonio, exploring the Black Sea coast, or planning a road trip to other parts of Georgia, renting a car at Batumi Airport gives you the freedom to travel at your own pace. Choose the right rental car for your trip and enjoy a comfortable way to explore Georgia from the moment you land.

Taxi vs. Rental: What It Actually Costs

Taxis from Batumi Airport are fine for a single trip — roughly €7–14 to the city center, more to Kobuleti, and considerably more anywhere further. For a multi-day visit with multiple stops, taxi costs stack up fast, often exceeding a full day’s car rental before your second day is over. Local marshrutkas run to the city center with no fixed schedule and don’t serve Kobuleti, the Adjara mountains, or anywhere off the main highway.

Car rental at Batumi Airport starts from €43/day with full insurance and unlimited mileage included. For two travelers, that’s roughly €21.50 per person per day — and everyone travels together, with luggage, on their own schedule.

Zugdidi–Mestia Route: What to Know Before You Drive

The main road from Zugdidi to Mestia (about 100 km, 2.5–3 hours) is open to rental cars year-round and is fully paved apart from the final stretch through the Enguri gorge. Some routes deeper into Upper Svaneti — including sections toward Ushguli — are unpaved and can be seasonally difficult or restricted depending on conditions. Rules and road conditions change by season, so tell us your planned route when booking and we’ll confirm the current situation for your dates rather than leave you guessing at a checkpoint.

Marshrutka vs. Rental: Why Drivers Choose Their Own Car

The Zugdidi–Mestia marshrutka runs a handful of times a day in summer and drops to almost nothing outside peak season — fine if your schedule matches theirs, frustrating if it doesn’t. A rental car means you leave when you’re ready, stop at viewpoints along the gorge, and aren’t stranded in Mestia waiting for the next departure back.

Where You Can Drive From the Airport

Batumi City Center

~15 min. Drive directly to your hotel and start exploring, no transit delays.

Kobuleti

~30 min north on the coastal highway. Georgia's popular Black Sea resort town, direct and easy drive.

Ureki Magnetic Beach

~40 min south. Famous for its unique black sand, believed to have healing properties.

Gonio Fortress

~20 min south. One of the oldest Roman fortresses in the region, near the Turkish border — paved road, no AWD needed.

Sarpi Border Village

~30 min south. The Georgian-Turkish border on the Black Sea, an easy coastal crossing point.

Mtirala National Park

45 min. AWD strongly recommended — the access road gets muddy and slippery after Adjara's frequent rainfall.

Adjara Mountain Villages

1–2 hrs inland. Roads climb steeply; 4x4 or AWD required for mountain routes.

Common Traveler Concerns, Solved

Worried About a Big Refundable Deposit?

Some companies at Batumi Airport hold €100 or more on your card until you return the car. We don't — zero deposit means nothing is blocked, and nothing to dispute after your trip.

Public Bus Doesn't Reach Kobuleti or the Mountains?

Correct — the airport bus only serves Batumi city center. For Kobuleti, Ureki, or anywhere off the main highway, your own car is the only practical option.

Visiting During Festival Season?

Summer brings the Black Sea Jazz Festival and Art House Film Festival, and the city gets busy. Booking your car in advance guarantees you're not stuck without transport during peak weeks.

Planning a Multi-Day Trip to Svaneti?

This is a serious mountain route, not a same-day drive. Tell us in advance so we can recommend a proper 4x4 and confirm realistic timing, not just hand you any available car.

Why Choose Car Rent Deme?

We Track Your Flight

Delayed? We know before you land. Your car and representative are there when you arrive, not when you were scheduled to.

No Hidden Airport Fees

Many companies add 10–20% airport surcharges. We charge the same rate at the airport as everywhere else.

Right Vehicle for Your Route

Tell us your itinerary — coast, mountains, or a full Georgia circuit — and we recommend honestly, not the most expensive option by default.

Available Every Hour

Batumi Airport receives flights at all hours, including late-night arrivals. Our 24/7 service means no landing time is inconvenient.
