- May – Jun
- Our pick — snow still on the high peaks, canyons full, Batumi warming up
- Sep – Oct
- Harvest season in the wine country and the clearest mountain air of the year
- Dec – Mar
- Gudauri ski season. Gergeti and some mountain roads close for weather.
- Jul – Aug
- Hot and humid on the Black Sea coast, though the mountains stay comfortable
Things to do
Gergeti Trinity Church
A fourteenth-century stone church on a ridge under Mount Kazbek. Reached by unpaved road, and genuinely weather-dependent.
Skiing at Gudauri
A cable car and a lesson on the second morning, at a resort two and a half hours from the capital.
Uplistsikhe cave town
A town carved straight into the rock, on a full day out of Tbilisi with Mtskheta, Jvari and Gori.
Batumi
Europe Square, Piazza Square, the Argo cable car up the hill, and the Ali and Nino statue that moves through itself on the promenade.
Martvili and Okatse canyons
Kayaking through Martvili in the morning; the cantilevered walkway out over the Okatse drop in the afternoon.
Old Tbilisi
The sulphur baths, the old town, and the cable car up to the Narikala fortress — kept for the free last day.

Georgia: common questions
- Not guaranteed. The access road is unpaved and closes in bad weather, and we would rather tell you that now than on the morning.
- Yes — cable cars, caves, a beach city and kayaking, with drives that are scenic rather than long. The ski lesson works from about age six.
- Georgia has been making wine for eight thousand years, in buried clay qvevri. We add a day in Kakheti for anyone who wants it.
- No. Every trip is planned for one family, couple or group of friends at a time: flights, hotels, drivers, guides and sightseeing, all chosen for you.
- Message us on WhatsApp — there is no form. Tell us roughly where, roughly when, and who is travelling. A trip designer replies personally, usually the same day, and follows up with a call to understand your priorities before sending a proposal.
- Where we show a figure it is indicative, per couple, and all-inclusive — flights, visa, hotels, sightseeing, transfers, breakfast and dinner. It is a planning number, not a quote: it is confirmed once hotels and transport are actually held, and it moves with the exchange rate on the day of booking. Trips without a figure are priced on enquiry.
- Yes. On our Europe trips both are included in the indicative price — return flights and visa application support and fees. Elsewhere we book flights through your preferred airline alliance and co-ordinate visa documentation separately.
