What are the Train Classes & Prices of Georgian Railways?
Depending on the length of your trip and your preferences you can choose a first or second class ticket in a sleeper coach for an overnight trip or opt for a hard or soft seat if available. Note that the choice of ticket classes depends both on the route and the length of your trip. Basically, your train may feature first class berths but you will not be able to book one if you are doing just a short two-hour stretch. In general, second class berths are a good choice for longer trips, and soft seats get you covered if your train ride is supposed to take under 4-5 hours.
Pros & Cons of Train Travel
Pros of Train Travel
- The best thing about railway travel is no traffic jams. Even on rush-hour, long weekends or during the high season
- An easy online booking process – you do not need to go to the railway station, which was the case in many places not so long ago!
- Prices for train tickets are usually more affordable compared to airplane tickets yet for certain destinations and trips the total travel time can be almost the same
- While rail travel is obviously slower than air travel, railway stations are often located in the centre of the city which saves you a sack of time getting to/from there while airports are almost always are quite a long way out of the city
- Travelling by night allows you to save on a hotel room and sleep well at the same time – opposite to a night bus where even the sleeping class is a huge compromise
- On certain routes luxury service is available
Cons of Train Travel
- For longer trips a train ride is definitely more time consuming than air journeys
- Trains do ride on schedule but being out of schedule is not unheard of for train travel – and delays can be huge, so if you are planning a connection to your flight, carefully check the time your train arrives at the station and think twice.
- Cleanliness is sometimes an issue with second and third class tickets, and with toilets, too.
- If your train makes a lot of stops, in some cases it is difficult to figure out when to get off as stops are not always clearly announced or marked with the exception of an electronic screen.

Marcell CNext time I would definitely book first class, the other seats are pretty hard. So a night ride where one wants to sleep is less comfortable in anything else but 1st class.

Sergey EThe train crew made me put my tiny dog into a carrying bag (that I luckily had but never used) where she's never traveled in 11 years of her life so she was really scared. I had to sit with her throughout the whole journey (5 hours) on the stairs to the second cart floor in the train vestibule, the crew wouldn't let me into the cart. This is borderline animal cruelty and I was deprived of the proper service I purchased. Also, no rules concerning bringing an animal on board were brought to my attention while making a purchase.

Dmitry KHot food and drinks required for so long trip - 5-6 hours.
Besides, cold fridge (both) get empty within a 2-3 hours... so, they doesn't help much..

Dmitry KIn general good enough. In detail, missing hot beverages and food. 5-6 hours trip is too long to have only cold water and snacks from fridge

Ahmed ZI had booked business class but could not feel the impact of it although it was approx. 3-4 times than second class ticket. Wifi was not working. No Latte Coffee was available (hostess mentioned that only available option is Americano). Except table between the seats I could not find any other benefit of travelling with business class.

Karlheinz HAlles perfekt geklappt, wenn auch mit total veralteter Technik. Die DB ist wohl moderner uns gepflegter, aber ihre Zuverlässigkeit lässt zu wünschen übrig. Ich bin mit dem Preis/Leistungsverhältnis sehr zufrieden

Aleksei KI can't think of a better way to get from Batumi to Tbilisi, both in terms of cost and comfort! The carriages are spacious and there is a snack machine. The only problem was the lack of seat selection when booking tickets online. There were four of us, two adults and two children, and the system scattered us all over the carriage, even though there was a free seat next to one of the given seats, which of course we took advantage of.
