Starting from Mumbai
Getting there without wasting a day
Flight routings and visa requirements should be checked for the traveller’s passport before confirming non-refundable arrangements.
Useful practical notes
Cards are common in Tbilisi, but carry some lari for small purchases and rural stops. Buy a local SIM/eSIM after checking current coverage for your route. Mountain driving, winter access and border-area plans need extra care.
Entry requirements depend on nationality/passport and can change. confirm official requirements before booking.
Find your fit
Who Georgia is for
Food & wine lovers
Long shared meals, bakeries, markets and Kakheti wine-country make the route as much about the table as the sights.
Couples & slow travellers
Old Tbilisi, Sighnaghi and scenic stays suit a relaxed, flexible pace.
First-time international travellers
A compact city-and-countryside combination works well when a local route removes transfer guesswork.
Landscape photographers
Mountain roads, monasteries and vineyards deliver variety without changing countries.
Maybe not ideal for you if: you dislike long mountain drives, need guaranteed warm beach weather, or want a nightlife-led holiday. Winter mountain routes and visibility can change quickly.

Spring and autumn are usually the most balanced for city touring, wine country and mountain scenery. July–August can be hot in Tbilisi but appealing at altitude. Winter suits snow plans, though high-road access is weather dependent.
Plan around the atmosphere
Festivals & dates to watch
Tbilisoba · usually autumn
Tbilisi’s city celebration brings food, culture and a livelier centre. Experience it if that energy is the point; book central stays early.
Rtveli · harvest season
Kakheti’s grape-harvest period can make wine-country especially engaging, with stronger demand for stays and experiences.
Winter mountain travel
Snow can be the attraction, but road conditions, transfers and visibility deserve flexible planning.
Dates can vary by year — reconfirm before booking. Peak weekends, public holidays and poor mountain weather can affect rooms, driving times and access.
Make it count
Don’t leave without doing these
Walk Old Tbilisi slowly
Give the lanes, balconies, sulphur-bath area and cafés time rather than treating them as a quick photo stop.
Take the Georgian Military Highway
Pair Ananuri, Gudauri and Kazbegi with an early start and weather-aware timings.
Eat a proper supra
Try khachapuri, khinkali and seasonal dishes in a setting where the shared-meal culture is part of the experience.
Spend a day in Kakheti
Balance Sighnaghi, vineyards and local food without packing every winery into one day.
Eat & travel respectfully
Food, culture & etiquette
What to eat
Khachapuri, khinkali, lobio, pkhali and churchkhela are useful starting points. Vegetarian dishes are possible but menu language varies; explain dietary needs clearly. Pork and meat are common, so Jain, vegetarian and halal travellers should plan meals carefully.
Good manners
Dress modestly in churches, follow on-site photography rules and avoid loud behaviour in religious spaces. A host may offer toasts at a supra; participate only as you are comfortable. Ask before photographing people or market stalls closely.

Photography guide
For city texture, walk Old Tbilisi early; for wide landscapes, plan the Military Highway and Kazbegi around cloud cover. The Chronicles of Georgia works well near late afternoon. Churches and monasteries may restrict indoor photography, and drone use needs location-specific checks.
Quick answers
Georgia FAQ
How many days should I allow?
Five days is a sensible first visit for Tbilisi plus a few contrasting excursions. Add nights for a slower Kakheti or mountain-focused route.
Is Georgia suitable for families?
It can be, particularly with a city-and-countryside plan, realistic drive times and family-suitable stays. We tailor the pace around ages and interests.
Do I need a car?
Not for central Tbilisi. For Kazbegi, Kakheti and multi-stop routes, a driver or organised transport often keeps the journey more comfortable.
Can Tailor Trips customise Georgia?
Yes. We shape dates, route, stays, transport and experiences around your group rather than selling a fixed itinerary.
