Tskaltubo to Kutaisi Bus Guide: Timetables, Fares & Travel Advice

Commuting between Tskaltubo and Kutaisi is the busiest transit corridor in the Imereti region — whether you are traveling for daily business, connecting to Kutaisi International Airport, or exploring local cultural sites. Here is a practical guide to navigating the route punctually with Shevardeni.

Departure Locations

Buses heading to Kutaisi depart continuously from Tskaltubo Central Bus Station (Butano) throughout the day. Look for primary lines №30, №34, and №36 (alongside supplementary commuter routes №4, №10, and №22) — all operating directly between Tskaltubo and Kutaisi Central Bus Station. The direct transit connects the two city centers in roughly 25–35 minutes depending on urban traffic.

Operating Schedule

Departures run frequently from early morning until late evening. During peak commuter windows, wait times rarely exceed 15–20 minutes. On weekends and holidays, arriving a few minutes early is recommended.

Note: Schedules may experience slight adjustments during official national holidays. Check our live network map for verified updates.

Ticket Fares

Ticket pricing is fixed and highly budget-friendly. Payment is strictly cash only paid directly to the driver upon boarding (credit cards and contactless payments are not supported). Transparent pricing ensures zero unexpected surcharges.

Commuter Advice

• Keep small physical change ready to ensure rapid boarding for everyone.
• When catching morning airport flights, factor in potential early urban rush hour congestion.
• Traveling with suitcases? Our fleet easily accommodates oversized travel bags.
