Sakhva Travel runs authored tours and excursions across Georgia. To help you plan the whole trip, we put together short guides to popular destinations: visas, best seasons, what to see and how much it costs. We don’t sell tours to these countries — but if your route runs through Georgia, the Georgian part is on us.
Turkey — beaches from May to October plus Istanbul and Cappadocia; visa-free for many nationalities, and just two hours by air from Tbilisi. Egypt — a year-round Red Sea escape (Hurghada, Sharm el-Sheikh) with warm winters and diving. UAE — Dubai and Abu Dhabi for shopping, modern landmarks and desert safaris, best from November to March. Thailand and Vietnam — long-haul Southeast Asia with dry seasons roughly November to April. Maldives — honeymoon-grade atolls and overwater villas. Cyprus — an easy Mediterranean beach break with a short flight. Armenia and Azerbaijan — neighbouring Caucasus countries that pair naturally with Georgia into one Caucasus trip. Abkhazia — the subtropical Black Sea coast reached overland through Georgia.
It depends on your nationality. Russian citizens have visa-free entry for up to 60 days by air. Many other nationalities also have visa-free or e-visa access — check before booking.
Beach season is May–October. For Istanbul and Cappadocia, April–May and September–October are more comfortable. July–August are the hottest and priciest.
Roughly from €800 a week independently and €1,500–2,000 for an all-inclusive package in high season.
Yes. Istanbul to Tbilisi is about 2 hours by air. Many travellers add Georgia after Turkey. We run tours of Georgia and help plan the route.
If it is your first time in Georgia, start with Kazbegi and Kakheti — mountains and wine in one trip. On a second visit, Svaneti, Racha or Batumi on the Black Sea are worth the extra days.
A comfortable first visit is 4–5 days built around Tbilisi, Kazbegi and Kakheti. A week or more lets you add Batumi, Svaneti or Racha without rushing between regions.
May–June and September–October are ideal — warm and less crowded. Mountain routes like Kazbegi and Svaneti open up in summer, while the wine harvest season peaks in autumn.
A private car with a guide is the easiest option — the route stays flexible and stops are built around you. Trains and marshrutka vans also exist, but a car reaches mountain villages far faster.
