Informazioni sull’esperienza
See the best of Georgia in four days without planning a thing. Your driver meets you at Tbilisi airport, and for the next three days your own car and English-speaking guide take you through the old capital, high into the Greater Caucasus and out to the vineyards of Kakheti. You stay all three nights in the same 4-star hotel in central Tbilisi, so there is no packing and unpacking between days.

Mtskheta: Georgia's ancient capital, 30 minutes north of Tbilisi.

Both are part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Zhinvali Reservoir and Ananuri Fortress: join the Georgian Military Highway, stop above the turquoise reservoir, and explore the 17th-century fortress and its two domed churches on the water's edge. Gudauri and the Jvari Pass: stand on the mosaic balcony of the Russia-Georgia Friendship Monument, high above the valley, then cross the pass at 2,379 m and descend to Stepantsminda. Gergeti Trinity Church: a 4x4 climbs to the 14th-century church at 2,170 m, standing alone beneath the glaciers of Mount Kazbek. Drive back to Tbilisi in the evening, about three hours.

Bodbe Monastery: about two hours east of Tbilisi, set among cypress trees, where Saint Nino, who brought Christianity to Georgia in the 4th century, is buried.
