Georgia: getting acquainted with Georgian traditions

Unique cultural and historical heritage

An 8 day trip

Georgia is a little visited country in the Caucasus region. The country was part of the Soviet Union and after its independence experienced a period of turmoil, conflict and civil war. Meanwhile the situation has changed. It's high time to visit this fascinating country. Lovers of unspoilt countryside, rugged mountains, idyllic villages and old, often beautifully situated churches and castles can enjoy their stay here.

The country has a rich history. It is one of the oldest Christian nations in the world. The Christian faith still plays an important role in Georgian society. You see everywhere churches, monasteries and cathedrals. Many of these complexes often contain beautiful frescoes that are slowly being restored. Old traditions seem to bloom once again.

Georgians are known for their hospitality and as hedonists of the Caucasus. They are outgoing, emotional, romantic and real partygoers.
