What we would do here
Not a place to walk into, but something to do: our pick per area.
- A sulphur bath
The hot springs are why Tbilisi was built here, and its name comes from the word warm. A private room in the domed baths is the one thing in this city that has been here since the beginning
- A Georgian cooking class
Khinkali looks simple until you try folding one, and khachapuri cannot be understood without seeing how much cheese goes inside. The class starts at the market and ends at the table, and it is also the best lesson in how a Georgian meal is ordered
- Qvevri wine from a buried vessel
In Georgia wine is fermented in a clay vessel buried in the ground, a method recognised as cultural heritage and probably the oldest in the world. In Kakheti they open the vessel in front of visitors
- Riding on horseback up to the church
The climb to Gergeti is what people come to Kazbegi for, and most do it in a four wheel drive. On horseback it takes longer, follows different tracks, and it is also the transport this place always used
- Paragliding above Gudauri
The ridge at Gudauri faces a wide valley, and it is one of the easier take-off points in the Caucasus. You launch with a short run down the slope, and from up there you see the whole Georgian Military Road
- A boat in Martvili canyon
The canyons around Kutaisi are cut into limestone and filled with improbably coloured water, and you enter them in a small inflatable. It is the part of Georgia that is neither mountains nor wine
- A family winery in Imereti
Imereti works with different grape varieties than Kakheti, and its wineries are small and family run. You sit in the yard, taste straight from the clay vessel, and eat what grew in the garden right there
- Trekking between the tower villages
The fortified towers in Svaneti were built to protect single families, and you move between the villages that have them on foot rather than by road. It is the most isolated part of Georgia
- A boat out on the Black Sea
Batumi is the only city in Georgia with a sea, and its skyline looks entirely different from out there than from the promenade. It is also the context that explains why this city looks the way it does
- Walking in the Borjomi forests
The reserve around Borjomi is one of the largest protected forest areas in Europe, with marked trails and huts along them. People come to Borjomi for the water and leave without seeing this
- A mountain observatory
The observatory at Abastumani was built high up for its clear air, and it still stands with its old domes and telescopes. Visiting is part Soviet history and part sky, a combination you will not find anywhere else in the region

Common questions
What are the best things to do in Georgia?
It depends on your taste: khinkali and khachapuri in the restaurants of Tbilisi, wine tastings in the qvevri cellars of Kakheti, the Gergeti church and the Military Highway around Kazbegi, the canyons and caves near Kutaisi, and the beaches of Batumi. On this page you can browse by category and by region, and add any place that catches your eye straight to your personal itinerary.
How do I add a place from this page to my trip?
Every place has an "+ Add to trip" button. Tapping it saves the place to your places in the browser, with no sign-up. Later, on the "My trip" page, you can slot it into the right day of your trip.
Are the places on the list real and rated?
Yes. Every place is picked one by one and checked before it enters the list, on reputation, real experience and a high rating. You can filter to show only places rated 4.5 and above, and a place that has a guide on the site links to it.
How do I filter the map?
Choose one or more categories, and a region, from the tiles at the top of the page. The map and the list update together and show exactly the same places, and tapping a category again clears it. Choosing a region zooms the map to it.
Which places appear on the Georgia map?
Every place on this page: Tbilisi and Mtskheta, the Kakheti wine region, Kazbegi, Kutaisi and Imereti, Batumi and the Black Sea coast, Svaneti, Tusheti and Borjomi, from restaurants and wineries to monasteries, viewpoints and mountain trails. Each pin is coloured by category, and where we have a guide to the place, its popup links straight to it.
Can I use the map on my phone during the trip?
Yes. The map works in your phone browser with no app. You can open it full screen, show where you are on it once your browser has your permission, and every place opens with a direct Google Maps link for directions.
Is the map useful for planning a Georgia route?
Definitely. Georgia is compact but mountainous, and seeing the places on one map helps you understand travel times and group nearby areas, for example Tbilisi, Mtskheta and Kakheti in the east. Alongside the map it is worth browsing our ready-made itineraries.
