TL;DR
In Batumi you can hire minivan drivers for private day trips for 5+ people who will follow your own custom route (e.g. Ozurgeti — Gomismta loop); most pre-made tours are designed to start from Batumi specifically.
Travelers look for minivan drivers offering custom private excursions instead of fixed standard tours.
For a group of 5 people, it's better to book a minivan (not a sedan) with driver — for example for the Ozurgeti — Gomismta round trip from Batumi.
These trips can be arranged as a custom excursion: you build your own list of stops and the driver takes you around them.
If you don't have a driver's license, you can take a taxi through Ozurgeti on the way from Kutaisi to Batumi, but most available tours are set up to start from Batumi rather than Kutaisi.
