Georgia 

Georgia is a land of breathtaking contrasts, where the rugged peaks of the Caucasus Mountains meet the lush vineyards of the Kakheti valley. It is a place where ancient Christian traditions blend seamlessly with a legendary hospitality that treats every guest as a "gift from God." From the charming, wooden-balconied streets of Old Tbilisi and the gravity-defying monasteries of Vardzia to the sub-tropical shores of Batumi and the snow-dusted towers of Svaneti, Georgia is a feast for the soul. Known for its 8,000-year-old winemaking history, polyphonic singing, and a supra (feast) culture that redefines the word "abundance," this destination is more than a getaway—it’s a deep immersion into a resilient and vibrant heritage.

Key Facts

The Hub: Tbilisi & Iconic Landscapes Tbilisi is the charismatic capital, where cobblestone alleys and sulfur baths meet avant-garde architecture. Beyond the city, explore the "City of Love," Sighnaghi, perched over the Alazani Valley, the high-altitude wonders of Kazbegi, and the coastal energy of Batumi on the Black Sea.

 

Language

The official language is Georgian, featuring its own unique, beautiful script (Mkhedruli). While Georgian is the heart of the nation, English is widely spoken by the younger generation and in tourist centers, making it easy to navigate your way through a local vineyard or mountain trail.

 

Currency

The official currency is the Georgian Lari (GEL). While cards are the norm in Tbilisi’s chic cafes and hotels, carrying cash is essential for visiting rural guesthouses or buying handmade churchkhela (a traditional walnut candy) from roadside stalls.

 

Climate & Seasons

Georgia’s dramatic landscape offers a distinct experience for every season:

• The Sweet Spots (May – June & September – October): Perfection. Late spring brings wildflowers to the meadows, while autumn marks the Rtveli (grape harvest), offering mild temperatures and vibrant festivals.

• Mountain & Coast Season (July – August): Peak adventure. Head to the Black Sea for sun or hike the high Caucasus to escape the heat in the refreshing mountain air.

• The Winter Wonderland (December – March): The "Adventure" Era. Hit the slopes at world-class ski resorts like Gudauri or Bakuriani, then warm up with a steaming bowl of khinkali (dumplings) by a roaring fire.
