Take and hike
We love hiking, mountains, and nature. We’re usually drawn to unspoiled corners of nature, hidden away from civilization.

Our mission is to help people get to know Georgia better.

We organize various group and private tours, as well as transportation to the starting point of your trek.

We’ve been organizing trips around Georgia for four years now and rent out hiking gear in Batumi.
We also have a store.

A nature museum is about to open in Batumi. It will house the personal collection of our company’s founders, Alina and Artem, which they’ve gathered during their travels.

Our Tour Leaders

We're beads and seals :3
  • Alina
    Founder of t&H, Tour Leader
    A biologist by education, a naturalist by calling. She’s great at organizing everyone and getting them excited about adventures.

    She makes the most delicious camping oatmeal and tells stories about all kinds of plants, rocks, clouds, bugs, spiders, and birds. She loves seeing the spark of curiosity in people’s eyes and giving hugs.
  • Artem
    Founder of t&H, Tour Leader
    The best driver in Georgia, according to our tourists. He loves exploring life and new routes, and hiking high up in the mountains (and he’ll drag you along with him).
  • Natasha
    Tour Leader
    Hiking instructor.
    A fan of mountain and ski trips. She loves to hike long distances, run, explore new places, and take beautiful photos.
  • Yaroslav
    Tour Leader driver on some itineraries
    An avid traveler, rescue worker, and avalanche safety engineer, he has worked as a mountain Tour Leader in the Khibiny Mountains and is currently working in Svaneti and Megrelia. He enjoys playing the guitar and singing.
  • Vova
    Tour Leader driver on some itineraries
    He’s been hiking since he was 15.
    He loves nature and the mountains, both new and old trails, sitting by the campfire at night, and sleeping in the mornings :)
    He used to be a Tour Leader on water-based expeditions; now he’s into professional mountaineering and arboriculture, and leads you on trails.
  • Anya
    Tour Leader
    A geographer by education, a photographer at heart, and Tour Leader calling. A geography teacher who ran away from class to the Far Eastern taiga to be with the bears—and ended up staying there :)
    On a hike, she knows two main secrets: how to find a beautiful view and how not to lose yourself during a rest stop.
    She loves trails with views, people with a sparkle in their eyes, and photos that capture the essence of the moment.
    “On a hike with me, it’s warm, peaceful, and always authentic 🤍”
  • Fyodor
    Tour Leader
    He went on his first hike at age 11—with a cotton-padded sleeping bag and his grandmother’s sweater.
    He has experience with winter, water, and mountain hikes of varying difficulty levels. He loves wild trails, swamps, rhododendron thickets, spending the night in a snow den, trail races, boxing, and swimming in icy water.
    On hikes, he values good spirits, the beauty of the wilderness, humor, pushing his limits, and hot tea after a long day of hiking.
  • Masha
    Tour Leader
    A child of the plains and marshes, I’ve dreamed of living in the mountains since I was little and used to imagine that the clouds on the horizon were snow-capped peaks.
    I’m thrilled by every little spider and leaf, and I try to share that excitement with those around me. For me, nature is my natural habitat :)
    I can turn even the most boring walk into an adventure.
    “Wait, let me take a picture”—that’s my life motto; I capture all the coolest moments through my lens.
  • Arvidas
    Tour Leader Naturalist
    He sees something interesting where most people just walk right by.
    He spent his childhood in the semi-deserts of Kazakhstan and the forests of Belarus, and two summers in the tundra beyond the Arctic Circle. For many years now, he has been exploring Georgia’s nature, searching for rare species of plants and animals, pursuing his passion for macro photography, and turning an ordinary hike into a small expedition. If he comes across something unusual along the way, it will most likely become one of the day’s most vivid memories.
