Georgia Travel Guide
Tips, itineraries, and insider knowledge from the GT Tours team
Georgia is one of the most rewarding travel destinations on earth — and one of the most misunderstood. Is it safe? When should you go? Do you need a visa? Can you rent a car? We've spent years running tours and a boutique hotel in Tbilisi, and this blog is where we share everything we've learned. From practical guides (visa rules, packing lists, driving tips) to deep dives into Georgian wine, food, and culture, every post is written by our team of local guides and the people who welcome guests to GT Hotel every day. No fluff, no sponsored content — just honest, first-hand advice from people who live and work in Georgia.
