Not a safe place for North Americans and Europeans, better locations to visit.

The people here in Batumi are so nice! They are very kind and friendly and go out of their way to welcome strangers. I really enjoyed trying local food and shopping at the bazaar

Putin is a target globally and he knows it.Thats why he chose to attend brics summit in South Africa virtually instead of personally such a coward putin is. No worries though there's no hiding place even in Russia for putin.All Russians are moving targets visiting the very few countries they can visit now and they know it.Dubai and Turkey seems to be Russians playground but those two countries hate child molesters too. Mercenaries abound globally no worries the end is near

Batumi is full of Russians since its still has the Soviet union mindset. No such thing as a georgian never will be. Georgia is just a cover name disguising other devious things Russians do like molest young children leaving them in shallow graves organs cut out and other inhumane things Russians do to children proudly proclaiming to the world like your so called fearless daddy putin proclaimed referring to the terrible 10 Russian soldiers praising them for their dastardly deeds.

Ali, sorry you are incorrect. We live in Batumi and some of these prices are high. You are comparing vacation and not living there. If you go in the summer things are higher for accommodation and food

I have been to Batumi twice. The price here is largely right, although the taxi driver could overcharge from time to time, like eveywhere else
