Georgia & Armenia: Caucasus Discovery
Eight days and seven nights from Tbilisi to Yerevan: mountain views in Kazbegi, Georgian wine and cooking, Armenian monasteries and brandy. A private journey with 4-star hotels, breakfast and English-speaking guides on touring days.
Discover two countries through their landscapes, traditions and everyday hospitality. Begin in Tbilisi, explore the ancient capital of Mtskheta, travel along the Georgian Military Highway to Kazbegi and spend a day in Kakheti wine country. Cross into Armenia through the monastery landscapes of Lori, then finish in Yerevan with brandy, contemporary city life and the sacred sites of Etchmiadzin, Geghard and Garni.
The accommodation used for the calculation is Ramada by Wyndham Old City in Tbilisi (4 nights) and Ani Grand Hotel in Yerevan (3 nights), with breakfast and two guests sharing each room. Both hotels and all services are confirmed by our team after checking availability. Any replacement is agreed with you and recalculated.
The base calculation includes English-speaking guides, as in the programme. Russian- or Chinese-speaking guides, single rooms, mixed room arrangements and family requests are quoted separately. The private minivan accommodates up to six tourists; luggage requirements are checked before confirmation.
The programme is intended for March–November, with April–October preferable for the mountain section. Mountain access, weather, border procedures and venue opening days may require changes to the order of visits. The online price is an estimate for the entered dates and group; submitting a request does not confirm a reservation.
