About Glamping Tago
Tago Glamping is a hotel located in the mountains of Adjara, 90 km away from Batumi. It is situated in a small village called Tago, whose breathtaking views captivate from the first glance. Getting there is not easy, making it even more interesting - first, there is a comfortable transfer from Batumi to Khulo, and from there to Tago, there is a cable car, which is an attraction in itself.

Camp program
18 august - 21 august, 2023
The main focus of our IT SOUL CAMP will be on balancing personal free time and group practice and activity time, which will help participants open up, make friends, and immerse themselves in an atmosphere of acceptance and cooperation

In the program: various IT activities, morning yoga practices, meditations (a must-have for IT specialists, as well as bodywork), and unifying group events. Also: we'll go to the mountains together, cycle, watch sunsets together, have fun, discuss pressing issues, and enjoy the most awesome season in the Tago mountains.
For IT specialists, it's important to maintain a balance between work and recovery to avoid facing professional burnout and its consequences.
It's necessary to incorporate physical activity into your routine. For more effective intellectual work and recovery, meditation practices are excellent. At the camp, you'll receive simple and effective tools that can easily be integrated into your daily routine on a regular basis, as well as self-help tools for high-stress situations

Testimonial video from retreat 30 june - 4 july, 2023
In June, we held a joint retreat together with yogaspace.ge. It was almost like a little life in the mountains: with meetings and farewells, laughter and tears, greeting the sun in the mornings and delighting at the sunset in the evenings. With yoga in the clouds, a cup of tea, and heartfelt conversations around the fire, walks in the mountains and ... contemplation of life. Thanks to the wonderful Тане -
we have such an emotional and beautiful video about the retreat.
