Private transfer120–230 GEL per car2 h 30 minDoor-to-door, fixed price, luggage included
Train (Stadler)31–70 GEL per person~1 h 30 min + transfersDeparts Kopitnari station ~22 km outside Kutaisi — not door-to-door
Marshrutka20–25 GEL per person~2 h 30 minKutaisi bus station, roughly every 50 min (06:30–19:30)

The marshrutka is the cheapest, the train has the fastest rail leg but departs from Kopitnari (~22 km from the city), and a private transfer is the only door-to-door option — for a group of 3–4 the per-person cost is often close to the train once station taxis are added.
