Your car becomes your campsite.
A tent that attaches to the back of the car, a bed, a kitchen and chairs, all packed and fitted before you leave. Drive to a lake, open the boot, you are home.

Everything you need for a night outside, minus the food. Packed into two bags that fit in the boot of every car we rent.

We fit it at pickup
At the airport, the office or your hotel. We show you how the tent clips to the boot and how the stove works. Fifteen minutes, then you drive.

Where the car can sleep
Wild camping is legal in Georgia outside national park core zones. Four places we send people first.
Juta and the Chaukhi valley
Park below the Chaukhi massif, walk to the lakes in the morning, cook dinner with the peaks going pink. Cold at night even in July; the sleeping bags are made for it.
Vashlovani steppe
Badlands and pistachio groves on the Azerbaijani border, zero light pollution. Best from April to June and in October; the awning matters here.
Black Sea near Ureki
Magnetic black sand, pine forest right behind the beach, warm water from June to September. The easy option for a first night out.
Svaneti, the road to Ushguli
Towers, glaciers and meadows you can park on. Take the Forester or a 4x4 and plan two nights: one near Mestia, one under Shkhara.
