What Travel in Georgia is Really Like 🇬🇪 One Month of Independent Travel in Georgia

Рет қаралды 75,293

Күн бұрын

In all our years of travel, we’ve never been to a country quite like Georgia. Throughout our month in Georgia, we experienced the uniquely (and slightly chaotic) capital of Tbilisi, the towering peaks of Kazbegi, the vineyards of Sighnaghi and the beaches of Batumi. We finally tried local Georgian foods like khinkali and churchkela and experienced the genuine hospitality of the kindest people we’ve come across in our travels. Today we’re sharing some of the realities of what it’s like to travel in Georgia and hope we’ve inspired you to venture of the beaten path and explore this beautiful country!

Our cuisine is definitely not just bread and cheese as you mentioned, it is just what you see other tourists eating. Georgia is a hidden gem which needs time to get explored. Good luck.

Just returned from Georgia! Needless to say some of the best travel experience I’ve had. The Svanetti region is out of this world. I have to agree with Georgians being some of the most hospitable people on the planet! I’ll have to disagree with Georgian food consisting of just bread and cheese. Yes, there a lot of that, but some of the best things we tried had nothing to do with those ingredients. They have some of the best stews I’ve ever had and the Georgian bbq is to die for.

Just returned from my 1-week vacation to Tbilisi, and I must say that I can recommend the county and that city to everyone. The food is delicious (Khachapuri was my favorite), the nightlife is quite lively with a lot of activity, and exploring Tbilisi with a group of friends was fun. Everyone is also willing to help you as a tourist. Most if not all young people can speak English to various degrees of skill, and even the older generation as well - as most earn their living from tourism. Every taxi driver I have met was capable of speaking English - and the Taxi drivers are really talkative, which is a nice way to learn about the country and about locations to visit ^^ Honestly, I recommend everyone to give it a try. The food is very good but still cheap, so you can eat yourself fat :) I didn't visit the rest of Georgia, only the capital, but I think I will return there for the rest someday in the future. Made some new friends there, which is always nice.
