Nine days through Racha, Samegrelo and Guria, from Khvanchkara vineyards and the Shaori lake to Megrelian canyons and Gurian tea country, finishing on the Batumi seafront.
| Day 1 | Arrival in Tbilisi, private transfer from the airport, and an orientation walk through the Old Town in the afternoon. |
| Day 2 | Drive west via Kutaisi into Racha-Lechkhumi, stopping at Nikortsminda Cathedral before reaching Ambrolauri for an evening Khvanchkara wine tasting. |
| Day 3 | A full day around Ambrolauri: the Shaori reservoir, Barakoni Church, and a visit to a family wine cellar in the Khvanchkara microzone. |
| Day 4 | Drive north to Oni, Racha's historic centre, to see the 19th-century synagogue and old town, with a run toward the Mamisoni Pass gateway if the road is open (checked at booking). |
| Day 5 | Return south through Kutaisi into Samegrelo to Martvili, with an afternoon at Martvili Canyon (rowing boat ride, weather permitting) and the adjoining monastery. |
| Day 6 | On to Zugdidi for the Dadiani Palace and botanical garden, with a short stop at the Enguri Dam viewpoint. |
| Day 7 | Into Guria: Gurian tea villages, the Gurieli princes' monasteries, and the coast at Ureki's magnetic-sand beach; Bakhmaro's high mountain road is normally closed by late October, so we substitute lower-altitude villages (checked at booking). |
| Day 8 | Drive to Batumi, with the afternoon free on the boulevard and an Old Town walk. |
| Day 9 | Private transfer to Batumi airport for departure. |
