GEORGIA

Georgia Tours & Trips: Explore the Magic of the Caucasus Mountains

Tucked between Europe and Asia, Georgia is one of those rare places that feels truly undiscovered — a land of dramatic mountain landscapes, ancient traditions, and a hospitality so warm it lingers long after you've returned home. With a culture shaped by centuries of trade, invasion, and resilience, and a landscape that swings from snowy peaks to sun-soaked vineyards, Georgia invites slow travel, deep exploration, and meaningful connections.

At Untravelled Paths, we believe in showing you the Georgia that most visitors miss — the local, the authentic, the quietly magical. Whether you’re wandering the cobbled streets of Tbilisi, cooking khinkali in a family kitchen, or sipping wine beneath the peaks of Kazbegi, our Georgia trips go far beyond the ordinary.

Why Travel to Georgia?

Georgia is a country of contrasts — a place where Orthodox cathedrals rise beside Zoroastrian temples, and where medieval villages lie just hours from lively café culture. It's this rich cultural patchwork that makes travelling here feel so layered, so human.

There’s something truly captivating about the way history, legend and daily life weave together in Georgia. In one afternoon you might hike to a remote hilltop monastery, share a feast with a winemaker, and hear stories passed down for generations — and that’s before the chacha (local brandy) even makes an appearance.

Still largely under the radar for most tourists, Georgia offers a rare chance to explore somewhere raw and real. The scenery alone is enough to stop you in your tracks — from the craggy heights of the Greater Caucasus to the vine-covered hills of Kakheti — but it’s the people, the food, and the stories that truly make Georgia unforgettable.

What Makes Our Georgia Trips Different

Not all tours are created equal. At Untravelled Paths, we don’t do mass-market or cookie-cutter itineraries. Every Georgia trip we offer is designed with care, rooted in local knowledge, and delivered with warmth and flexibility.

Our groups are small — usually no more than 8 to 10 people — which means you’ll never feel like you’re being herded from sight to sight. Instead, our trips are all about genuine connection: with your guide, with the places you visit, and with the people you meet along the way.

We also guarantee that once you’ve booked, your trip is going ahead. No last-minute cancellations, no minimum numbers. Just you, your curiosity, and the open road.

And because we believe in giving back, every booking plants a tree through our partnership with the World Land Trust — just one small way we’re helping preserve the wild beauty of this region for generations to come.

Georgia’s Must-See Highlights

Georgia may be small in size, but it's packed with variety. Our trips are carefully crafted to balance headline sights with off-the-beaten-path gems — the kind of places you won’t find on most tour itineraries.

Tbilisi: A City of Layers

Start in the capital, where winding alleys, sulphur baths and balconies cling to the hillsides in a dizzying display of colour and charm. Tbilisi is Georgia’s beating heart — multicultural, creative, and endlessly surprising. Whether you’re admiring art in a former Soviet warehouse or sipping coffee in a converted print shop, there’s inspiration around every corner.

Kazbegi & Gergeti Church: Georgia’s Iconic View

North of Tbilisi, the dramatic landscapes of the Greater Caucasus open up. The town of Stepantsminda (Kazbegi) sits beneath the shadow of Mount Kazbek, one of Georgia’s tallest peaks. High above, the 14th-century Gergeti Trinity Church stands alone on its ridge — perhaps the country’s most photographed spot, and for good reason.

Svaneti: Medieval Towers & Mountain Mystique

For those craving remoteness, the Svaneti region in northwestern Georgia feels like another world. Home to ancient stone towers, glacial valleys and the UNESCO-listed village of Ushguli, this is the land of mountain myths and hardy hospitality.

Vardzia: Georgia’s Cave Monastery

Carved into the cliffs of southern Georgia, Vardzia is a vast monastery complex dating back to the 12th century. Its hidden chambers, frescoes and cave chapels once sheltered entire communities from invading armies. Visiting today is like stepping into a fairytale — part Indiana Jones, part sacred retreat.

Kakheti: Birthplace of Wine

Wine isn’t just a drink in Georgia — it’s a philosophy, a ritual, and a cornerstone of hospitality. In the rolling hills of Kakheti, you’ll find ancient wine-making methods still alive, with clay qvevri pots buried beneath the earth and toasts made with soulful songs. Whether you’re visiting a boutique cellar or a family vineyard, the welcome is always warm — and the wine always flowing.

GEORGIA ADVENTURES

When is the Best Time to Visit Georgia?

Georgia experiences distinct seasons, each offering its own charm. The best time to visit depends on what you’re looking to get from your journey — and we’ve crafted itineraries to suit every season.

Spring - From March to May Is when the country begins to bloom. Wildflowers sweep across the valleys and the weather is warm but not overwhelming — perfect for sightseeing and soft hiking. Tbilisi hums with life, and the countryside is fresh and vibrant.

Summer - From June through to early September is peak mountain season. This is the time to explore the high Caucasus, especially regions like Svaneti and Kazbegi, where the air is crisp and the views seem endless. Local festivals pop up in villages, and days are long and golden.

Autumn - May just be Georgia at its most glorious. From late September to October, the vineyards of Kakheti glow amber, the harvest begins, and food takes centre stage. It’s an ideal time for culinary tours, wine tastings and peaceful walks through forests brushed with colour.

Winter - Though quieter, has its own allure. Snow blankets the mountains and sulphur baths in Tbilisi offer a welcome warmth after frosty explorations. For those after a crowd-free, contemplative version of Georgia, this is the season to come.

Travelling Responsibly in Georgia

Responsible travel isn’t just a phrase for us — it’s the way we operate. Every trip to Georgia should not only enrich the lives of those who travel, but also support the communities who welcome us in.

That’s why we work closely with local guides, stay in family-run guesthouses and visit independently owned wineries, craft workshops and restaurants. We avoid the big buses and tourist traps. Instead, we focus on relationships — long-standing, personal, and mutually beneficial.

We also give back to the land itself. A tree is planted for every booking made with Untravelled Paths, in partnership with the World Land Trust. It’s a small gesture with a big impact — one that helps preserve the natural landscapes we all cherish.

When you travel with us, you're not just exploring Georgia — you're helping protect it for the future.

Georgia Tours: Frequently Asked Questions

We know a trip like this can raise a few questions. Here’s what travellers often ask us before booking:

Do I need a visa for Georgia?

British and EU passport holders can enter Georgia visa-free for up to one year. If you're travelling from further afield, we’re happy to advise on entry requirements or help you check via the Georgian consulate.

Is Georgia safe for tourists?

Yes — Georgia is widely considered one of the safest countries in the region. Violent crime is rare, and locals are famously hospitable. Of course, it’s wise to exercise the same caution you would anywhere, but most visitors feel at ease from day one.

Can I travel solo on your tours?

Absolutely. In fact, many of our guests do. Our small group model is perfect for solo travellers — offering the balance of independence and camaraderie. We can also arrange private trips if you’d prefer a one-on-one experience.

Are your trips suitable for older travellers?

Yes. While some of our itineraries include moderate walking or time at altitude, most can be adapted to suit different fitness levels. If you’re unsure, just ask — we’re always happy to talk through the details and make recommendations.

What’s included in the tour price?

Generally, our prices cover accommodation, guided experiences, transport within Georgia, most meals, and all entrance fees for activities listed in the itinerary. We’re transparent about what’s included, so there are no surprises — just great value and a full experience.

FAQs

Do your trips always run?

Yes! As soon as we have confirmed availability for the experience you're interested in and you have been booked on, the experience is guaranteed to go ahead. We never cancel trips, so there is nothing you should worry about.

What if I have to cancel a trip?

Sadly, our trips become fully non-refundable six weeks before travel. If you cancel more than six weeks in advance and have already paid in full, you will be refunded 75% (the 25% deposit is non-refundable). Depending on the case and how far in advance you need to cancel, we might be able to move your booking to a different date, subject to availability.

Can you offer private trips?

If group travel is not your thing, or you'd like to add other elements to our current itineraries, we'd be happy to offer you a private tailored trip to suit your needs. Simply drop us an email and our team will get planning! Please note that during peak periods such as the festive period or half-term holidays, this option might not be available. 

Can I combine trips?

We'd encourage you to do so! Depending on the location and what you are interested in, most our trips can be combined. These can be found in the Trip Combos section at the bottom of each experience page.  

I can't see *country* on your trips list!

Ever-expanding, we're always researching new locations to spice things up. As we prefer to hand-pick everything from accommodations to guides and build our own experiences, setting up a new location might take some time, but we're keeping busy and have a long list of new experiences we want to share with you all. If you don't want to miss out on any news, make sure to subscribe to our newsletter using the form at the bottom of this page.  

Do you outsource your guides?

All our guides have been carefully handpicked and they will work hard so you can have a memorable experience. When working with third party partners, they have been tried and tested to ensure the same standard. 

Can I request a specific guide?

Our team is busy running the trips, doing research and managing the operational side of the business. Because of this, the schedule has to be carefully planned in advance, so we cannot guarantee your trip will be led by your preferred guide. However, all our guides receive raving 5* reviews and you'll be sure to receive an exceptional service no matter who will be running your trip.

What about return guests?

If you've travelled with us in the past 18 months, we'd be happy to see you again. Because of this, you are entitled to a 10% discount on most our other experiences. Please note that there are a select few experiences where the discount does not apply, so get in touch with our enquiries team to double-check!

Are you protected?

Yes! We are fully bonded offering protection to our guests in the unlikely event of our financial failure.

Do you offer insurance?

While we do not offer insurance cover as a part of our experience, we highly recommend True Traveller, which offers tailored package covers. Our team members have personally used them as they specialize in adventure travel and you can create your own insurance plan, without any add-ons that are irrelevant to your trip.
