Christmas in Svaneti — Georgia Finder

We have visited Svaneti in different seasons, and each time this region reveals a new side of itself. It is one of those places you want to return to again and again.
In winter, Svaneti becomes a quiet paradise for ski and snowboard lovers — fresh air, almost empty slopes, majestic mountains, perfect snow, and no queues.

But this trip is not only for those who enjoy skiing.
We will also dive into the culture of a proud mountain people who carefully preserve their unique language and ancient traditions. We will learn the history of the famous Svan towers — silent guardians of the past that have survived for centuries — and even climb one of them.

If desired, we will visit a local sauna to warm up after a cold day.
And in the evening, we will enjoy traditional dishes at a cozy dinner.

Tbilisi

Tbilisi, Georgia

Tbilisi is the capital and the largest city of Georgia, lying on the banks of the Kura River with a population of around 1.2 million people. Tbilisi was founded in the fifth century AD by Vakhtang I of Iberia, and since then has served as the capital of various Georgian kingdoms and republics. Because of its location at the crossroads between Europe and Asia, and its proximity to the lucrative Silk Road, throughout history, Tbilisi has been a point of contention among various global powers. To this day, the city's location ensures its position as an important transit route for energy and trade projects. Tbilisi's history is reflected in its architecture, which is a mix of medieval, neoclassical, Beaux Arts, Art Nouveau, Stalinist, and Modern structures. Historically, Tbilisi has been home to people of multiple cultural, ethnic, and religious backgrounds, though its population is overwhelmingly Eastern Orthodox Christian.
