THE BEST WAY TO EXPLORE GEORGIA
OUR OFFERS
Georgia is a relatively small country located at the border of Europe and Asia. It’s an ancient country, so some historians refer to it as Asia, while in other sources historians include Georgia as Europe.
In the native language, the country is called ‘Saqartvelo’. The name is derived from a legendary ancestor ‘Qartlos’ – who was a descendant of Noah, therefore the central region of Georgia is called ‘Qartli’ and the language itself is ‘Qartuli’.
Geographically Georgia is located in the Caucasus region, between Greater and Lesser Caucasus mountain ranges. Our neighboring countries are Russia from the north, Azerbaijan from the east, Armenia and Turkey from the south, and from the west, the country’s border goes along the black sea coastline.
There is an interesting legend that tells us why and how Georgians got this land from the very beginning. It emphasizes that God decided to give Georgians the land that he had kept for himself, the gifted land was like heaven. And indeed, the whole Georgian territory can be compared to heaven. In such a small area nature is extremely diverse, mountains are over 5,000 meters, there are thousands of rivers, the Black sea, thick forests, semi-desert, and extremely rich land where almost all kinds of fruits and vegetables grow.
On top of that, Georgia has unique sorts of grapes that grow throughout the country. The country boasts more than 500 varieties of indigenous grapes, nearly one-sixth of the world’s grape varieties, including endangered vines found nowhere else on Earth.
The country has an ancient history. Only Kutaisi which is the biggest city in west Georgia is 3,500 years old. It’s even mentioned in ancient Greek Mythology, a Myth about Argonauts, where a band of heroes around 1300 BC, accompanied Jason to Colchis (today Kutaisi, a center of Colchis Kingdom) on his quest to find the Golden Fleece.
Also, Georgia is one of the first countries in the world that converted from Paganism to Christianity, in the year 337. In today’s census, the majority of the population is Christian Orthodox, around 90%, and the remaining 10% are Muslims and Catholics.
In Georgia, the official language is Georgian, which is a part of the Ibero-Caucasian language group. We have our alphabet which is different from any other writing system in the world. Once you’ll see the Georgian text, you will know that this alphabet does not have an analog anywhere else in the world.
The capital of Georgia is Tbilisi, with a population of 1, 5 million people. Other big cities in the country are Kutaisi and Batumi (west Georgia, coastal city).
Besides nature, history, and culture, Georgia is famous for its delicious cuisine. Georgia’s regional cuisine is diverse. Food ranges from quite spicy in western regions to the more reserved kitchen in the eastern part of the country. Each region proudly shows its dishes and welcomes guests with its special Georgian hospitality. In Georgia, we have a phrase that a guest is sent by a God, therefore we treat our guests accordingly.
Annually Georgia hosts different genres of music festivals (rock, jazz, blues, etc.). Many cool bands or solo singers visit the country each year. Georgia is a must-see destination for people of any interest. There is always something in this country that will attract your attention. Professionals in our company are using an individual approach and will gladly customize Georgia tours that are perfect for you.
