| Georgia, from Tbilisi to the Winelands Khachapuri and khinkali, fresh cheese and fistsized dumplings, tarragon and coriander, and everywhere, deep rivers of wine: Georgia in early summer is an Eden of the near east. But the true richness of Georgia is its people. Fiercely hospitable. Besotted with life. Eager to show the world the best of a very special country that is thriving, peaceful and abundant. These are the people who are hosting us on the League of Travelers' rolling eight-day journey through the country, from the ancient capital of Tbilisi to the green winelands of Kakheti and the desert monastery of Vardzia. Your guide is the country's most famous chef, and arguably its biggest personality: Tekuna Gachicheladze. Multilingual, endlessly fun-loving, hypertalented inside her restaurants and out. In our circles she's simply known as The Queen. We'll be feasting at her wine country villa, visiting her favorite cafes and producers, exploring the breadth of Georgia with her favorite people. Joining her will be Roads & Kingdoms' co-founder Nathan Thornburgh, who first started coming to Georgia 15 years ago as a foreign correspondent, and fell in love not just with the stories of the place, but with the countryside supras, endless vistas and bottomless terracotta qvevris of wine. This trip with Roads & Kingdoms will be at the same lovely level of all our trips. We'll be staying in the country's best hotels and estates, and all costs in country are included in a single price, from luxury transportation to private dining and our urban and countryside explorations. We have assembled an admirable crew of travelers for the journey already, and have just a couple rooms left. Email us now to see if the League of Travelers—and this beguiling gem on the edge of Europe—is a good fit for you. |
