Audi car rental in Tbilisi
If you need an Audi car rental in Tbilisi, we have one Audi Q7 ready for you — a 7-seat, petrol, automatic SUV from $150 per day, weekly from $900 and monthly from $3,150. We deliver the car to any address in Tbilisi and to Tbilisi International Airport (TBS) and Kutaisi International Airport (KUT), with the delivery address, date and time agreed with a manager before the booking is fixed.
What the Audi Q7 gives you on an Audi car rental in Tbilisi
We keep one Audi on this page — the Q7, in the SUV & 4x4 class, at $150 per day. It is a seven-seat, all-wheel-drive petrol machine with an automatic gearbox and 333 hp, and it is the only Audi we hand over here.
The Audi Q7 in numbers — 7 seats, all-wheel drive, 333 hp
We keep one Audi on this page — the Q7, a 7-seat petrol SUV with automatic transmission, all-wheel drive and 333 hp, from $150 per day. The engine puts 333 hp through all four wheels, the gearbox is automatic, and the fuel is petrol, so no hunting for a diesel pump on the Georgian Military Highway.
Why the Q7 suits families and mountain roads
The S3 runs 139 km from Mtskheta to the Russian border at Stepantsminda, through Zhinvali, Ananuri, Pasanauri and Gudauri, and its highest point is the Jvari Pass at 2,379 m. From Freedom Square the drive to Gudauri is 121 km and to Stepantsminda 153 km. The upper sections of the Jvari Pass close when there is avalanche risk — all-wheel drive does not cancel that check, so look at the road status before you leave the city.
Audi Q7 compared with the other Audi models you might ask about
Only the Q7 is on this page; the Q5 and A4 are not part of our fleet here.
| Model | Class | Seats | Fuel | Transmission | Price per day |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Audi Q7 | SUV & 4x4 | 7 | Petrol | Automatic | $150 |
If you were expecting a smaller Audi, say so when you book rather than after the confirmation — the model on this page is fixed, and the manager can only work with what the fleet actually holds.
What Audi car rental in Tbilisi costs and how the booking is fixed
One price, three horizons, and a booking that is fixed with a manager before hand-over. The Audi Q7 on this page costs $150 per day; longer bookings follow the same rate scaled by six and by 21 days.
Daily, weekly and monthly rates for the Audi Q7
The Audi Q7 costs $150 per day, weekly from $900 and monthly from $3,150. A week is counted as six days and a month as 21 days, so the longer you keep the car, the lower the effective cost of each day behind the wheel. The Q7 is a 7-seat, all-wheel-drive petrol SUV with automatic transmission and 333 hp, and it is the only Audi we hand over here. Deposit, excess and any delivery fee are set out in the rental agreement and agreed when booking.
Deposit, excess and what the rental agreement sets out
The deposit and the excess are set out in the rental agreement and are agreed when booking. Read those clauses before the keys change hands, not after.
How the booking is fixed with a manager
The booking is fixed with a manager, who agrees the delivery address, the date and the time before hand-over. A person confirms the Q7 is free for your dates, then writes the address and the hour into the booking.
- Send your dates: give the manager the pick-up and return dates, and the Q7 is held against them.
- Agree the address: any address in Tbilisi, Tbilisi International Airport (TBS) or Kutaisi International Airport (KUT) — outside these, delivery is arranged case by case.
- Fix the time: tell us your flight number or your arrival hour so the car is there when you are.
- Get the confirmation: the booking is fixed only after the manager confirms the address, date and time back to you.
Documents and driving rules for Audi car rental in Tbilisi
Before you collect the keys, two things decide whether the hand-over goes smoothly: the paperwork you bring and the rules you drive by.
Passport, driving licence and when you need an IDP
We ask for a passport and a valid driving licence; if the licence has no Latin or Cyrillic script, an IDP or a notarised translation is needed. Georgia is a party to the 1968 Vienna Convention, so a foreign licence is recognised here — you do not exchange it for a local one. A foreign licence is valid for up to one year from the date you entered Georgia. The minimum age, the young-driver surcharge and the cards accepted are agreed when booking, not stated here.
Speed limits, seat belts and the rules that catch visitors out
The limits are straightforward: 60 km/h in built-up areas, 90 km/h outside them for category B, and 110 km/h on motorways. In a residential zone the limit drops to 20 km/h. Seat belts are required for the driver and all front passengers; rear belts are not compulsory by law. A phone is only allowed through a headset or speakerphone, with both hands on the wheel. Children under 3 must ride in the back in a child seat or restraint matched to height and weight, and a child under 6 may not be left alone in a parked car. The alcohol limit is 0.3 per mille. On the S3 to Kazbegi and Gudauri the mountain sections close at the Jvari pass (2,379 m) when avalanche risk is high — all-wheel drive does not replace checking the road before you set off.
What a ticket costs and where the car may go
- Speeding by 15–40 km/h: 50 GEL; over 40 km/h: 150 GEL.
- Phone while driving: 30 GEL; seat belt: 40 GEL; running a red light: 50 GEL.
- Unpaid parking: 50 GEL; driving without a licence: 500 GEL.
- A 20% discount applies if a fine is paid within 10 days; 100 points in a year means losing the licence.
- Winter tyres are mandatory from 1 December to 1 March — worth knowing if you plan a Gudauri trip.
- A self-drive car stays in Georgia; the only trip abroad is to Armenia, with our driver.
Parking and fuel in the city
Street parking is zonal: the first 15 minutes are free, then from 1 GEL per hour, paid through the Tbilisi Parking app or at a terminal. Underground car parks in the centre are an alternative — Freedom Square runs around 2–3 GEL per hour, Rike about 7 GEL per day. Petrol was 4.06 GEL per litre and diesel 4.76 GEL per litre on 21.09.2026, with diesel roughly 17% dearer. The Q7 takes petrol, and our rule is full-to-full: the car comes with a full tank and goes back full, otherwise the missing fuel and a refuelling fee are charged as set out in the rental agreement. Fill up before you return the car rather than hunting for a station after the drop-off — the fee is not worth the detour.
Delivery and hand-over on an Audi car rental in Tbilisi
We bring the car to you: any address in the city, Tbilisi International Airport (TBS) or Kutaisi International Airport (KUT).
Where we deliver the Audi Q7
- Any address in the city: home, hotel or guesthouse — the exact street and entrance are agreed with a manager when the booking is fixed.
- Tbilisi International Airport (TBS): 17 km south-east of the city centre; the car is waiting at the time you give us with your flight details.
- Kutaisi International Airport (KUT): 241 km from Tbilisi by road — give the manager your flight details when you book.
- Outside the city and these two airports: arranged case by case and not promised on the site — ask before you pay anything.
What to check when the car arrives
The car comes clean with a full tank, and it must go back full-to-full. If it does not, the missing fuel and a refuelling service fee are charged as set out in the rental agreement — no other fuel option, such as a pre-paid tank or full-to-empty, is offered on the site.
The deposit, the excess and the delivery fee are never a figure we quote here: they are set out in the rental agreement and agreed when booking.
Timing your hand-over around a flight
Book the Audi Q7 through Rent-Trip with the address, date and time settled in advance and the rest of the trip — the Georgian Military Highway, Kazbegi, Gudauri — starts from your own doorstep.

The Georgian Military Highway in an Audi Q7
The S3 runs 139 km from Mtskheta to the Russian border at Stepantsminda, through Zhinvali, Ananuri, Pasanauri and Gudauri, and its high point is the Jvari Pass at 2,379 m. Upper sections of the pass close when avalanche risk is high, and the road is being rebuilt around a 23 km bypass with a 9 km tunnel.
Winter tyres and the December-to-March rule
Winter tyres are compulsory in Georgia from 1 December to 1 March, and in zones designated by the government, in particular weather conditions, chains on at least the two front wheels are required. Gudauri sits at 2,200 m by the pass and its season runs from early December to mid-April, so a ski trip in the Q7 falls squarely inside the tyre rule. Fuel for the run is petrol: at the last recorded prices, 4.06 lari a litre for petrol against 4.76 for diesel, and the round trip from Freedom Square to Gudauri and back is about 242 km.
What to agree before a long route
- Fuel policy: the car leaves with a full tank and comes back full — full-to-full is the only option we offer, and the missing fuel plus a refuelling fee are charged as set out in the rental agreement.
Insurance and what is covered on Audi car rental in Tbilisi
Insurance is the part of an Audi rental where the paperwork matters more than the badge on the grille. Compulsory third-party cover does not exist for owners of Georgian-registered cars yet: the government put its introduction into the autumn legislative work plan, with no date named. A car hired here carries Georgian plates, so the compulsory insurance rule for foreign-registered vehicles does not apply to it. What you actually drive on is the optional cover the company sells — CDW or Super CDW — and the terms of that cover are set out in your rental agreement, not in a brochure.
Third-party cover, CDW and Super CDW
- Third-party liability: not yet mandatory for owners of Georgian-registered cars; the government has scheduled its introduction but has named no date.
- CDW: collision damage waiver offered as an option; it limits your exposure to damage to the car itself.
- Excess: the amount you remain liable for after a claim; it is set out in the rental agreement and agreed when booking.
- Theft of personal belongings: not covered by standard insurance — take your own policy if you travel with camera gear or laptops.
What the insurance does not settle for you
Cover on the car is not cover on your driving. Speed limits in Georgia are 60 km/h in built-up areas and 20 km/h in residential zones; outside built-up areas a category B car may do 90 km/h, and 110 km/h on a motorway. Seat belts are required for the driver and front passengers. A phone is legal only through a headset or hands-free, both hands on the wheel. The alcohol limit is 0.3 ‰ (0.03 %). Fines run from 50 GEL for speeding 15–40 km/h over the limit to 500 GEL for driving without a licence, with a 20 % discount if paid within 10 days and 100 points in a year meaning disqualification. Insurance does not reimburse any of that, and a claim does not make a fine disappear.
Winter adds one more thing the policy will not argue about: from 1 December to 1 March winter tyres are compulsory, and in zones designated by the government, in particular weather, chains on at least two front wheels.
Trips towards Armenia on an Audi car rental in Tbilisi
Georgia's land border with Armenia is open, but a self-drive rental on this page is a car for Georgia: the Q7 crosses into Armenia only with our driver, and that trip is agreed with the manager when booking. The main crossing is Sadakhlo–Bagratashen, roughly 80 km south of the capital (70 km to Sadakhlo by road); the second is Ninotsminda–Bavra. The whole run to Yerevan is about 280 km, 4–5 hours including the border.
- Self-drive: the Q7 is driven within Georgia; the territory is set out in the rental agreement.
- A trip to Armenia: only with our driver, agreed with the manager when booking.
- Insurance: Georgian insurance does not apply in Armenia.
- Azerbaijan: the land border has been closed to passengers since 2020; only the Tbilisi–Baku passenger train has resumed.
Inside Georgia the Q7 covers the long routes this page is built around: Kazbegi, Gudauri, Kakheti and Borjomi, all on toll-free roads.
