Georgia Tours in July 2026

This was a really interesting and challenging tour led by an excellent guide. The tour gives you an opportunity to explore a remote area in Georgia and feel as if you have stepped back in time. The accommodation is comfortable and the food provided is local, fresh and plentiful. Our guide, Alex, shared his love of his country and ensured we experienced a different type of walk each day so we saw the best of Georgia throughout our stay. A great tour to a beautiful part of the world.

The mountains are stunningly beautiful in early spring, with numerous wild flowers in the meadows and snow on the peaks. Batumi is a surprisingly interesting city, worth staying an extra day before or after the tour to fully explore

Loved our time in Georgia. The scenery was gorgeous and some parts of the trek were quite challenging. Staying in village guesthouses was fantastic-they were often basic but always clean. Our guide Lasha was wonderful, with a great knowledge of history and culture.

The trip leader, Nick, is outstanding in every sense - intelligent, kind and witty. His knowledge of Georgia and his caring towards its people and history were wholehearted. I loved hearing about the history of each site we visited and went for being ignorant to well informed about this beautiful country. I felt that the itinerary was perfect. It was hot (July) and that made cycling harder. Do read the trip notes before going, you need to be relaxed on roads with traffic and be ready to make a significant effort as the cycling is challenging. Most felt that it was harder than moderate. The support team were excellent too, helpful and kind. The food was also outstanding with many homemade meals which were copious and delicious. Such a treat! I met some superb people and much enjoyed their company. Georgia is beautiful and a few of the roads were truly spectacular in terms of scenery. I do wish that the bikes had tires more suitable for road riding as so much energy was wasted due to mountain bike tires which aren’t at all needed. I’m glad that I chose Georgia and over the moon to have had Nick as our guide.

A wonderful trip with a great group. Nick the leader was great, extremely informative both about his country but also with his detailed briefings prior to every ride. The trip was well run and a perfect blend of culture, history and enjoyable cycling. The cycling is reasonably challenging at times and a level of fitness and experience on roads with heavy traffic is needed. It is hilly with some stiff climbs made more so by the hot temperatures we experienced in July. The provided mountain bikes where OK but would be much improved with semi slick tires. Accommodation and the food in particular was memorable, the later far exceeding expectations.

The tour was a beautiful pilgrimage to different monasteries, very high intensity, we enjoyed Armenian, music, culture and food. Visit to see of Holy Etchmiadzin and Holy Badarak was exceptional. Lake Sevan, views of Majestic mouth Ararat will never be forgotten. Delicious dinners, hands on cooking classes in Georgia and Armenia, made it a great tour of both learning and connection. Most evenings concluded with traditional song or dance and the group seemed to love that. Visit to the vineyards and wine tasting in Georgia was also special. It was a wonderful opportunity to visit and see contrasts in the culture.
