Batumi by train
Georgian Railways operates trains between Batumi and Tbilisi. Night train leaves Tbilisi at 22:55 and arrives in Batumi's Makhinjauri Station at 7:05 the next morning. Day train #30 leaves Tbilisi at 8:50 and arrives in Batumi at 4:00pm. First class costs 40 GEL, second class costs 23 GEL. In first class, there are two people per cabin, the berths are a little short, narrow and hard but rather comfortable, and linen is provided. Makhinjauri Station is 5 km north of Batumi, and taxis and marshrutkas await incoming passengers. Night train #621 returns from Batumi's Makhinjauri Station to Tbilisi at 22:40, arriving at 7:10. Train tickets can be bought at the station or in Batumi at the office on Z. Gamsakhurdia str. Reserve your seats in advance on the weekends, as many Georgians flock to the seaside.
Female travellers who travel alone might consider to travel first class and buy both tickets, since many Georgian men enter the night train intoxicated and can keep you from getting a good night sleep. Every carriage, including both first and second class, has a watchman/woman, who protects the passengers from drunks, so you don't need to worry.
