Food

All breakfasts, four lunches and three dinners are included.



Georgian specialities include khachapuri (cheese pies), khinkali (meat dumplings) and lobio (bean stew with herbs and spices). There are many sauces made from walnuts to accompany cheese or meat dishes. Churchkhela (walnuts in solid grape juice) is a typical local sweet.



Local beer, wine, vodka and cognac are readily available. Still and sparkling water is easy to find, as are other soft drinks.



Vegetarians can be catered for, as there are lots of fruit and vegetables, cheese and other dairy products, various local breads and dumplings. Vegans or those with a wheat or dairy intolerance will find there is far less variety but can be accommodated. Walnuts are ubiquitous in salads and sauces, so those with nut allergies should be aware. Please advise us at the time of booking if this affects you.

Accommodation

On this Georgia adventure, we stay in a range of hotels, all of a comfortable, mid-level standard. We start and end at a centrally located boutique hotel in Tbilisi. During our travels through the country, we stay in three more well-located hotels including one within the walls of a castle, one in the mountains and another in the heart of the wine country. Below are the typical hotels we use for this trip.



Tbilisi: Address Boutique Hotel (start and end of the trip)







In the heart of old Tbilisi, the most atmospheric part of the city, the Address Boutique Hotel is a great base for our explorations. It has 28 rooms, all furnished in a modern style, while attractions within walking distance include the Presidential Palace and Kura River.



Akhaltsikhe: Gino Wellness Rabath (nights 3-4)







Within the walls of the historic Rabath fortress, this hotel has a hard-to-beat setting. Inside, the rooms are modern and have an exterior seating space for a bit of relaxation. You'll also find a wellness centre with a variety of saunas and a hot tub, plus a restaurant-bar serving Georgian and European dishes.



Gudauri: Marco Polo Gudauri (nights 5-6)







Surrounded by the Caucasus mountains, this traditional resort-style hotel has great views. There's also plenty of entertainment, including an indoor pool, a selection of bars, and a 250-seater restaurant with a terrace.



Telavi: Holiday Inn (night 7)







In the town of Telavi in eastern Georgia, the Holiday Inn is a good stopover on our exploration of the wine region. There are 85 rooms, a restaurant, bar and terrace, plus a swimming pool.
