Information on the cost of rest in Batumi is given at the time of stay in this resort city from the middle until the end of July 2015.
With regards to accommodation in hotels, prices per day without meals are approximately as follows - 80 Lari in remote hotels (15-20 minutes), if closer, then the price is already from 100-120 lari. You can use the services of guest houses, or shoot the usual apartment, as I did. Two-bedroom apartment in a new building on the eighth floor with a kitchen, a bathroom, a washing machine cost 50 lari per day.
To the sea, the truth is not so close - 20 minutes, but in a straight line. Often used the services of a minibus that stayed right at the house. The fare for man is 40 Tetri. To note, a taxi at the same distance - 5 lari. Rested with a small child and was a stroller cane. Usually we went to the sea on the minibus, back to the stroller. Roads are terrible, not only for transport, but also for pedestrians. The road surface is all broken and for two weeks the stroller has become the whole "broken" (I apologize for Slang).
As regards the sea. At sea, beach you can spend on the chaise lounge. For him take 3 lari. Municipal Beach, Sunlongs can not take. Many tourists came with their sun beds - towels, mats, etc., umbrellas. By the end of the month, people apparently felt. Sometimes it was difficult to find a place by the sea. To come to the beach is better for hours to 9, when the sun is not so active and even blows cool. And to leave for an hour, because it is very soared and umbrellas do not save at all. As the child fell asleep in the wheelchair and we sat at sea to five hours. Despite the fact that they smeared the skin with sunscreen and sat under umbrellas in the shade, burned and well-being at the end of the day was not very good.
In addition to sun loungers on the beach, you can leave your savings on food. Constantly run merchants who offer drinks, hot corn, bagels, kozinaki and any other nonsense. For example, corn will cost you in 2 lari. There are 40 Tetri on the market. In order to be clear at the prices of the course for mid-July amounted to 1:38, and by the end of the month 1:36, i.e. For one lari asked from 26 to 28 rubles.
If you are a fan of water rides and entertainment, then you have a parachute flight, water scooter, boat. For 70 Lari, you will fly on a parachute attached to the catech and safely in the end of the water. Wishing was abound.
After the sea, do not deprive yourself of pleasure to work out on the simulators. Open areas with those are located right on the seaside boulevard. Despite the heat, the simulators have always been busy and local and tourists did not pass by. Here are children, women. Men. Even the elderly people came to do. Great threw the weight along with swimming.
Now that relating to entertainment. Primorsky Boulevard, as the most significant place of tourist life, offers to choose a walk on a boat along the coast of Batumi, or a panoramic view of the city from the ferris wheel for 3 lari per person, you can ride a bike. Two-wheeled bike - 3 lari in 30 minutes, four-wheeled - 15 lari for the same time. Children's attractions, trampoline cost 4.5 lari. In addition, almost every patch trades Chinese toys. Some glow, others fly and children are like a bait. Similar pieces cost from 2 to 6 lari. Parents all this hits the pocket, if you do not stop your favorite chad on time. This is calculated.
If you want to see the city, its historical part or go on excursions to the mountainous part of Adjara or for example, Izemety and other areas, it will have to fork. For example, a night view of Batumi Plus visiting a winery with a wine tasting of local production will cost $ 18 per person. A ride to the mountains to Green Lake, which is at the level of 2,250 meters above sea level with lunch in a private house, where you are offered by Adjara dishes. costs 45 dollars. The Istiral National Park, in which they will have to get a lot of things, then down and resulting in a waterfall and mountain lake - 23 dollars. Istirala Park is 20 minutes from Batumi. We traveled by car and with us tourists took a taxi. The taxi driver requested 30 lari with them one way. The trip to Imereti is the city of Kutaisi with a visit to the ancient temples dated 10-11 centuries (by the Temple of Bagrat, Gelati and Mozymete). As well as the caves of Satalio and Prometheus, where the remains of dinosaurs are found - 50 dollars.
Batumi can be learned by himself, it is not necessary to ride as part of an organized group. For tourists, all the most interesting concentrated near Primorsky Boulevard - the area of Europe, which is not difficult to learn on the monument of Medele, holding the Golden Fleece, the Theater Building, on the one hand, is the monument to I.chavchavadze, Park on May 26, that right behind the University of Batumi, notable Which is a stone that seems to raise the water post. Be sure to visit the dance fountains near the buildings of justice. Every evening the presentation begins with nine hours. The most interesting and unusual are dynamic pictures that like a film show on the background of the water screen.
As for the best time for recreation, it is difficult to say in terms of weather. We drove from July 19 and the weather only improved. Before that there were cloudy days. Literally left yesterday and there were huge waves on the sea, the weather spoiled a little, there was a thunder and a little rain. In such waves, it is almost impossible to swim, makes a lot of garbage. By the beginning of our arrival, people on the beach were not so much, but the numbers from July 30, tourists were filled, sometimes it was necessary to walk along the shore and search for a place to relax.
For me, unforeseen expenses were the purchase of rubber slippers, which I cost 12 Lari. The bottom of the sea in Batumi, like the beach itself, stony, can be said by cobblestones, and if there are also waves, then the stones are hung on the legs. The first two days I left the water almost on all fours, then when buying a shoe, everything became much better. Souvenirs in Batumi Dear, this is compared. For example, with Kutaisi. The most expensive souvenir shop came to me near the square of Piazza. There are a couple of shops in a residential building that to the left of the building of the theater. If you look at the theater face.
Now about food. If you eat in a cafe, for example, Hinkie, then they cost 70 Tetri, the closer to the sea, the price is higher - 1 lari. The same applies to all products. Khachapuri, Patoes with potatoes or Lobiani (Beans) You will cost 80 Tetri to 1.2 lari, sweet buns of 60 Tetri, Local lemonade 2.5 Lari. Delicious potatoes - Ojahuri. This is baked in the clay utensil potatoes with meat. worth 7 lari. Two servings for three people. Very much and satisfying. There is also a dish that is called "sharp" - meat with spices and pepper. Tasty, but really very sharp. Cost 6 Lari. Most of all I liked the Khinkal, in which I go for the second year in a row on the ul. Pushkin, 125. This is notice to you. In the supermarket prices for products are not low, so for example, oil spread costs 2.5 lari, liter milk package 3.5 lari, sunflower oil is the cheapest 2 lari, 1 kg of dumplings - 7 lari, frozen chicken - 8 lari, fresh cabbage - 60 Tetri, tomatoes - 2 lari, eggplants - 80 Tetri, watermelons and melons - 30 Tetri per kilogram, nectarines - 1 ... 1.5 lari.
