Leave Tbilisi behind and follow the legendary Georgian Military Highway toward the heart of the Caucasus. Your adventure begins at the shimmering Jinvali Reservoir, a lake born from a flooded valley, where entire villages now sleep beneath turquoise waters. It’s a peaceful yet haunting reminder of Georgia’s ever-changing landscape.
Continue to Ananuri Fortress, a stronghold of medieval dukes, overlooking the Aragvi River. Hear stories of warriors and noble families who once guarded this mountain pass.
From here, ascend toward Kazbegi, where the highlands open wide. Step into a local home to experience true Georgian warmth. A truly exclusive experience — step beyond the tourist path and into a Georgian household, where you’ll enjoy a home-cooked meal and learn how to craft perfect Khinkali side by side with your hosts.
Afterward, switch to a 4WD vehicle and climb to the Gergeti Trinity Church, standing proudly against the backdrop of snow-capped peaks. If the weather allows, you might see the towering Mount Kazbegi, whose icy crown dominates the horizon.
Discover one of Georgia’s most breathtaking natural wonders — the Dariali Gorge, often called the “Gate of the Caucasus.” Carved by the Terek River, this majestic canyon marks the natural border between Georgia and Russia and has served as a strategic passage for millennia.
On your return, stop at the Gudauri Viewpoint with a colorful Soviet-era mosaic. Breathe in the mountain air one last time before heading back to Tbilisi, carrying with you not just photos, but memories of Georgian hospitality and mountain spirit.
