Tbilisi International Airport Transfer

Tbilisi International Airport (TBS) is Georgia's main international gateway, located 17 km east of the city centre. It handles flights from Europe, the Middle East, Turkey and the CIS, and is the arrival point for the vast majority of international visitors to Georgia. Outside the terminal, unofficial taxis and touts are common — a private transfer from LocalsRide puts a vetted, English-speaking driver inside arrivals with your name before you even pick up your luggage.

Transfers start from €10 — fixed price, confirmed at booking. No meter, no hidden fees, no surge pricing.
