Flights from 18,000 RUB, accommodation from ₾50/night, private guided tours from ₾77. Georgia — a warm, ancient escape from the Urals.
Planning a tour to Georgia from Moscow in 2026 is entirely doable, despite the lack of direct flights. Via Istanbul, Dubai or Yerevan you can reach Tbilisi in 5–8 hours of total travel time. From there, a country awaits where in a single trip you can see the Kazbegi mountains, taste kvevri wine in Kakheti, stroll the medieval streets of Tbilisi and soak in the sulfur baths — all at a budget that will surprise even seasoned travellers. A self-planned trip with a private guide costs 25–35% less than a package tour from a travel agency, and delivers incomparably richer experiences.

No 40-person buses, no rushing. Mini-groups up to 7 or private tours. Flexible itinerary: we stop where you want, eat where it's actually good (not where I get commission), and photograph where it's beautiful. 200+ reviews on Google Maps — check for yourself.
