Monastery

Three of western Georgia’s natural wonders in a single day from Kutaisi.

Mineral water, mountain air and a fortress — the classic Georgian spa escape.

Eight thousand years of winemaking in one day: qvevri cellars, a hilltop town and the Alazani valley under the Caucasus.

The Georgian Military Highway to the church beneath Mount Kazbek — the single most recognisable view in the country.

Two capitals in one day: fifteen centuries of Tbilisi, then the cathedral where Georgia became Christian.

The city of love, the convent of St Nino and a cellar lunch above the Alazani valley.

A 6th-century cave monastery in a painted semi-desert, an hour and a half from the capital.
