Georgia sits at the crossroads of Europe and Asia — a small country with a disproportionately vast wealth of experiences. Ancient cave cities, a UNESCO-listed old town, the world’s oldest wine culture, the snow-capped Caucasus Mountains, subtropical Black Sea beaches, and a food scene that has begun to attract global attention make Georgia one of the most exciting emerging GIT destinations for Indian group travellers.
Tbilisi: One of Europe’s Most Charming Capitals
Tbilisi is a city unlike any other in the region. Its Old Town (Kala) is a labyrinth of cobblestone lanes, ornate balconied houses, Persian-era bath houses (Abanotubani sulphur baths), Orthodox churches, and ruins of Narikala fortress overlooking the river. A cable car ride to the fortress for panoramic city views is a must. Tbilisi’s wine bars and Georgian restaurant scene are outstanding.
Kazbegi: The Caucasus Mountain Experience
A day trip or overnight stay in Kazbegi (Stepantsminda) is the highlight of any Georgia GIT tour. The Georgian Military Highway winds through breathtaking mountain scenery to reach the iconic Gergeti Trinity Church — a medieval monastery perched on a 2,170-metre cliff above the village, with the 5,047-metre Mount Kazbek looming behind. It is one of the most photographed landscapes in the Caucasus.
Batumi: Georgia’s Black Sea Riviera
Batumi on Georgia’s Black Sea coast is an unexpected delight — a subtropical city with palm-lined boulevards, a stunning modern boulevard along the sea, and an urban energy fuelled by its status as Georgia’s premier resort city. The Batumi Botanical Garden and the Alpbach cable car offering bird-eye views of the sea are popular with Indian groups.
Vardzia: The Ancient Cave City
Vardzia is a 12th-century cave monastery city carved directly into a volcanic cliff — a vast warren of over 3,000 rooms, churches, wine cellars, and throne rooms honeycombing the rockface. Once home to 50,000 monks, it remains one of the most extraordinary historical sites in the entire Caucasus region and a highlight of Georgia group tours that venture off the beaten track.
