Travel to Georgia
Explore the ancient, experience the spectacular!
Few of the earth’s small nations offer the visitor as much as
Georgia.
A country the size of Switzerland, Georgia is able to boast the
highest mountains in Europe; truly fabulous walks; more
indigenous grape varieties than anywhere (with a wine culture to
accompany); a fantastic architecture of stone watch-towers;
carved wooden balconies, and richly frescoed churches. Combine
this with Mediterranean climate and the legendary hospitality
and you have a unique travel destination.
