TL;DR

For a family day trip with kids, the Makhuntseti waterfall – Tamar's Bridge – Merisi route (lunch at Eco House Merisi) works well. For a 3-day 'wow view' trip, try Gomismta – Martvili – Okatse, passable by a regular sedan. For a quiet weekend, Gulebi village in the Keda district is an option, though road conditions there are uncertain.
