about the subway. Currently, the fare payment system is only by plastic cards. Works from 6:00 to 24:00. The interval is from 2.5 minutes at peak times to 12 minutes at late times.

The main part of the population of the city is transported by minibuses (Marshrutnaya Taxi). The car brand "Ford Transit" 2011 release yellow, 16 seats. Minibuses equipped with air conditioning and automatic payment system cost 80 tetri. The population will be able to pay for travel using transport plastic cards. It is also possible to use these cards to pay for bus and subway fares.
trams and trolleybuses were liquidated in 2006

Buses and "minibuses" in Georgia are universal public transport, both in the city and between settlements. Moreover, this type of transport is quite conveniently organized. Since 2007, it has completely replaced the trams and trolleybuses that are familiar to us.
In addition, there is a metro (2 lines).
For the convenience of passengers, screens have been installed above stops on the main highways of Tbilisi with information about where the next bus goes and when it will arrive (information is given in Georgian and English).
Travel by bus / minibus 50 tetri = 0.5 lari (approximately 0.3 dollars).
Since the autumn of 2012, payment for travel with a Metromoney plastic card has been in effect. According to it, there is a certain system of discounts for the use of public transport. So, the first trip in the metro and buses costs 0.5 lari (see above), the 2nd one - 0.3 lari (about $ 0.18), and the following trips during the day - 0, 2 lari (about $0.12).

Everything has already changed. In Tbilisi, to purchase a bus ticket (50 tetri), you can use metal money in denominations of 5, 10, 20 and 50 tetri in any set. By dropping a 1 lari coin, you can get two tickets, and a coin of 2 lari - get four tickets. To travel in a fixed-route taxi (80 tetri), you need to pay the driver and he will give change. You cannot use the metro without a plastic card, which can be purchased at any metro station for 2 lari (this is its cost) and replenished as needed in the metro or at payment terminals located at all bus stops and on the streets. Within one month after purchasing the ticket, the plastic card can be returned at the metro ticket office and receive 2 GEL back. Using a plastic card has its advantages: details here

Hello! Tell me, please, until what age do children ride for free on the subway and on the bus?
аватар Kancheli
Schoolchildren use the metro and bus for free, but they still take a zero ticket on the bus, and passage to the metro also requires a plastic bank debit card, which is linked to the current account of one of the parents and you can transfer the amount to it if you need to pay for minibuses, which are for children paid as well as for adults. If a child does not have a ticket when checking by a collector on the bus, a one-time fine is 5 GEL and it is paid by the parents. If the fine is not paid within a month, a new fine of 50 GEL is charged. If it is not paid, then the case is transferred to the court and then to the bailiffs.
Students and pensioners in the subway and bus pay 20 tetri. If the category (war veterans, refugees, etc.) of citizens that enjoys zero payment (but they are required to take a ticket).
According to available information, from 2019 public transport fares will be significantly increased.

And if the child is a tourist who came with his parents to Georgia on vacation?
аватар Kancheli
If a child under 16 years old is a foreign tourist, then he can enter the metro, like all other citizens, only with a plastic card (for example, METROMANI, which, as I already wrote, can be purchased in the metro) on a general basis, i.e. with payment of 50 tetri for admission with a grace period of 1.5 hours. However, he does not need to take a ticket on the bus, although he must have a document with him (from his parents) that the child is not more than 16 years old and a document (passport) that he is a foreigner. Controllers will not fine him.

Thank you very much for the extended answer!
аватар Kancheli
In addition, controllers, for technical reasons, cannot fine an adult tourist due to the lack of an entry about him in the state register of Georgia, therefore, in the case of a stowaway, the controller calls the patrol police (which appears within a few minutes) and the police deal with the violator (fines, although it is also not clear how).
