From Moscow take Moscow - Voronezh - Rostov - Krasnodar - Dzhubga - Sochi rout. Moscow - Voronezh part of the road is very good. Voronezh - Rostov part of the road is in really bad condition: only one lane each way, separated only by dashed white line; asphalt is pushed in and forms tracks; no safe way to pass, so you'll see many accidents even in perfect weather. Rostov - Krasnodar part of the road is good, and you can see ongoing constructions to epand the roadway. Krasnodar - Dzhubga part of the road is in good condition. The way passes over the mountains, but the road is wide. Dzhubga - Sochi part is the most beautiful (if driving during daylight), yet most difficult part of the way. It goes along the sea only over mountains. Up and down, left and right, with very few opportunities to pass trucks and busses. There practically no straight or flat parts of this road. This shortest part of the way will take around 5 hours to complete.
For american drivers: your license are valid in Russia with Internationaly Driving Permit that you can obtain in AAA (even if you're not a member).
