Hotels
The Georgia & The High Caucasus holiday travels from Tbilisi in eastern Georgia to Batumi on the Black Sea coast and includes some of the most mesmerising scenery in Eurasia – the magical mountain region of Upper Svaneti. The country of Georgia may be compact but, with one foot in Europe and another in Asia, it is a land of incredible diversity. Visiting Georgia’s three major cities on this itinerary, you will begin in the charming capital Tbilisi; a dramatically situated metropolis that still brims with history. On the Black Sea coast, the beach city of Batumi has boomed in recent years but has managed to retain much of its original elegance, and little-visited Kutaisi is a very different place altogether - much smaller than its two counterparts, it is often overlooked by visitors but those that do include it in an itinerary are smitten by the city’s hidden charms. Kutaisi is also an excellent staging post for trips further afield and it is from here that you will meander your way into the Caucasus Mountains to one of Georgia’s most remote and unique regions. Upper Svaneti is a land of snow-capped peaks, medieval stone towers, jaw-dropping gorgeous scenery and is home to the hardy Svan people, who have resided in this area for centuries. Here, you will have the opportunity to hike, visit UNESCO World Heritage-listed villages and marvel at some of the grandest mountains the Caucasus region has to offer.
