Where to change Canadian dollar in Georgia?

Is there a place in Batumi that changes $100 Canadian dollar bill for Georgian gel? I am willing to accept 145gel for $100CAD. If you know a place specifically please let me know. At the Turkey//Iran border, I found it hard to change CAD (nobody wanted it). If they did, they wanted to rip me off by as much as 20%. In Iranian state banks, they refused to buy US, or Canadian dollar at all.

thx.

can anybody tell me if there is a public transport/transfer from the Batumi airport to the city or if there is not, how much is taxi ride

Hello!

i'm a travel photographer visiting Batumi on about 25th May for a few days and then travelling around Georgia and am very keen to photograph as many people as possible. I wonder if you would like to be photographed or could put me in contact with people (of all sorts) who would?

thanks for your help

Hello me and my mate are preparing the trip of a life time, I am wondering what the easiest option it was going from Ukraine - Georgia, by ferry.

It is part of a larger site-seeing expedition that we are planning.

Any help would be very much appreciated.

I would like to go to Batumi by ferry. The departure harbour in Black Sea is not important. Do you know from which harbours I can find a ferry to Batumi or to Poti?

Which hotel would you recommend for families with children for travel in Oct? I was given the names of hotel Boni & hotel Tanamgzavri. Which would you recommend that is good & reasonably priced?
