Georgia

Georgia, a country nestled in the western part of the Caucasus, along the shores of the Black Sea, serves as a historical gateway between East and West. It is one of the most popular destinations in South Caucasus for foreign tourists, who come to marvel at the beauty of Tbilisi, bask on the beaches of the Black Sea, or be dazzled by the vibrant lights of Batumi.

Describing the splendor of Georgia could go on indefinitely, and truly understanding this nation in just one trip is nearly impossible. However, each visit will leave an indelible mark in your heart, a reminder of its incredible beauty that will beckon you to return time and again. The only thing left to do is plan multiple trips, each time uncovering new facets of this ancient and soulful land.

Georgia has a few major cities: the “warm spring” of Tbilisi, with its majestic cathedrals, theaters, sulfur baths, charming streets, and barbecue spots; the ancient city of Kutaisi, once the capital of the Colchian kingdom; and Batumi, a southern cocktail of historic buildings and modern seaside resorts. Additionally, there are smaller yet intriguing towns like Gori, Zugdidi, and Poti. The numerous villages and settlements, each holding a piece of history and surrounded by breathtaking landscapes, are too many to list, yet they all invite exploration.

Starting your journey in Tbilisi, the “warmest” city in the Caucasus, is a great idea. Here, cathedrals, theaters, and museums entice you to stroll along colorful streets, falling in love with the views. Don’t forget about Kutaisi, one of the world’s oldest cities, and Telavi, a haven for winemakers and wine enthusiasts. If your soul craves the sea and a fresh breeze, head south to Batumi. Don’t miss the mountainous region of Svaneti, known as the land of a thousand towers, each uniquely crafted. Conquer the steep slopes of Gudauri and discover that every corner of Georgia is extraordinary and beautiful in its own right!

For each trip, you can focus on a specific region, allowing you to savor the maximum experience without rush or haste. Adjara is famous for its relict forests, warm Black Sea beaches, and subtropical climate, while Mtskheta is known for its spirituality and sacred pilgrimage sites. In Kakheti, the “city of love” Signagi awaits, along with ancient fortresses and endless vineyards, making it a perfect destination during the Rtveli harvest festival. Guria captivates with its black stone churches and the black sands of Ureki. Visit the mountainous Svaneti, where you can personally count the towers during an exciting hike. Truly, every region of Georgia deserves its own journey!

Tourists are drawn to its magnificent panoramas and abundance of entertainment, ancient cities, and comfortable beaches, excellent gastronomy, and the warmest hospitality. There’s a perfect getaway for every type of traveler: enriching excursions, thrilling activities, city strolls steeped in history, and visits to fortresses and temples. And let’s not forget the tastings of dozens of varieties of pkhali, khachapuri, and khinkali, Georgian wine, and unforgettable toasts.
