Selected pickup city: Tbilisi
Tbilisi sits in a river valley where the Silk Road once crossed the Caucasus, and the city still spreads out along the Mtkvari in a way that rewards having a car. A rental lets you cover the sulfur bathhouses of Abanotubani, the Narikala fortress walkway, and the newer Saburtalo district in one day, then head out toward Kakheti's vineyards the next. Compare local suppliers by pickup point, deposit terms and payment method before booking — conditions vary more between small Georgian operators than between big international brands.
The Old Town's balconied streets around Sioni Cathedral are best explored on foot, so plan parking near Freedom Square or Rustaveli Avenue rather than trying to drive into the narrow lanes themselves. The cable car up to Mtatsminda Park and the Bridge of Peace are both walkable from central pickup points. If you have a free afternoon, Mtskheta — Georgia's former capital, with Jvari Monastery on its hilltop — is a short drive northwest.
A common first loop is Old Tbilisi to Mtatsminda for the funicular, then east along the river toward the newer bridges before heading back. For a longer day trip, the road toward Kazbegi climbs through the Georgian Military Highway with views that get more dramatic the further you go — leave early if you want time at Gergeti Trinity Church before the light changes.
Tbilisi traffic bunches hard around the main bridges at rush hour, so factor that into pickup timing if you're heading straight out of the city. Deposit and payment rules differ noticeably between suppliers here, with some local companies more flexible on debit cards than the international chains. Check what's covered before you drive into the hills, since mountain routes can affect insurance terms.

Some offers may be available without a security deposit. Confirm that the selected car explicitly shows no deposit; do not infer it from insurance or payment method.
Compare the exact amount, currency, how it is held and when it is released. A low deposit is not the same as no deposit.
Check whether the supplier accepts your card type, requires it in the main driver's name and uses it for a deposit or prepayment.
Cash is possible only when the selected supplier and offer say so. Paying cash does not automatically remove a card or deposit requirement.
Review what is included, exclusions and the claims process. Extended protection may affect risk, but it is separate from the security deposit.
Confirm that the deductible or excess is shown as zero and read the exclusions. Zero excess does not necessarily mean zero deposit.

Minimum age requirements are set by each supplier rather than a single citywide rule, and most sit somewhere between 21 and 25. Drivers under 25 sometimes pay a young-driver surcharge, so check the exact offer before assuming the price you see already includes it.
Some suppliers allow one-way rentals to Batumi, Kutaisi or other cities, usually for an extra fee that depends on the distance. It's not universal, so confirm it before booking if your trip won't end back in Tbilisi.
Old Town streets around Sioni and the Meidan are narrow, often one-way, and short on parking, so many travelers pick up at the airport or a city-center office instead and walk into the Old Town separately. If your hotel is inside it, ask the supplier about nearby parking before you commit to picking up there.
