Georgia & Armenia Adventure
Thirteen days, two incredible countries, and a lifetime of memories - this adventure through Georgia and Armenia is packed with history, culture, and jaw-dropping landscapes. Start in Tbilisi and end in Yerevan, winding through ancient fortresses, centuries-old churches, and rugged canyons where civilization has thrived for generations. Dive into the region’s rich artistic traditions with an Armenian carpet weaving demonstration and a masterclass in playing the Duduk. And, of course, no journey through the Caucasus is complete without indulging in its mouthwatering cuisine. From hidden gems to iconic landmarks, this trip has it all - just bring your sense of adventure!
Highlights
Join a local cooking demonstration and master the art of making delicious meat dumplings, Visit Gori-the birthplace of former communist leader Joseph Stalin, Experience Armenian artistry through traditional carpet weaving and Duduk music, Explore the grand Republic Square in Yerevan-a hub of history and culture
Accomodation
On this trip you can expect to stay in small family-run hotels or pensions (with the exception of the start and finish hotels, which are often larger city hotels), which will vary a little in standard and facilities: some may not have elevators, air-conditioning or English-speaking staff, but most importantly all are locally-run, with some traditional character, and in excellent central locations to give you maximum time for exploring the sights. You can expect to find clean, safe, simple accommodation in convenient locations.
Group Leader
This G Adventures group trip is accompanied by one of our group leaders, otherwise known as a Chief Experience Officer (CEO). The aim of the group leader is to take the hassle out of your travels and to help you have the best trip possible. They will provide information on the places you are travelling through, offer suggestions for things to do and see, recommend great local eating venues and introduce you to our local friends. While not being guides in the traditional sense you can expect them to have a broad general knowledge of the countries visited on the trip, including historical, cultural, religious and social aspects.
We also use local guides where we think more specific knowledge will add to the enjoyment of the places we are visiting - we think it's the best of both worlds.
