Hospitable Georgia eagerly awaits tourists
Since last year, our compatriots have been discovering Georgia from a completely different – tourist – side. There are more and more enthusiastic reviews from those who have visited this country. What do travelers like about small Georgia?
Firstly, it's accessibility. You can reach Georgia by many means of transport: by bus, by private car, by train, or by air. Some even manage to get here by boat (departing from Sochi).
Visa-free entry, which is in effect for our citizens in this country, also cannot but please tourists. At the border, only a stamp of stay for no more than three months is placed in the passport.
Many vacationers are also surprised by the reasonable prices for accommodation and food. Inexpensive vacation in Georgia provides good competition to more popular tourist destinations. But this is by no means at the expense of the quality of services provided.
As is known, Georgians love and know how to cook deliciously. For $5-7 you can have a hearty lunch. Many products and herbs are grown by the local population, ensuring the eco-friendliness and availability of products. Markets are very popular, where you can taste and buy consumer goods. Georgian wines are also widely known. So it's no surprise that gastronomic tourism is so well developed here.
There is no need to talk about the hospitality of the local population in the Caucasus. Georgians have always treated us like brothers. Nothing has changed even now. Plus, there is no language barrier. Since the times of the former Soviet Union, when Russian was the second language to learn, many studied it in school. The local population speaks Russian fluently, especially in the capital and resort towns.
As for excursion programs, this country is full of historical landmarks, cathedrals, fortresses, nature reserves. If you wish, you can create an active route through all cities of Georgia. Local mountain rivers are famous for their rafting tours. Ecotourism is also beginning to actively develop here.
Many travelers are also interested in medical tourism. Georgian resorts with mineral water are gaining more and more popularity, such as the world-famous healing springs of Borjomi. We should not forget about the high-mountain resorts that treat lung diseases.
The Black Sea coast of Georgia is only just beginning to develop. New hotel complexes appear every year. Global chains have begun to actively carve out their place in the sun. In Georgia you can find both sandy and pebble beaches. There is also a beach with black sand that has magnetic properties.
Untouched nature, high mountain ranges and the purest air – all this is Georgia. It is no wonder that locals are considered long-livers in terms of life expectancy. And all these factors annually attract tens of thousands of tourists from all corners of the world to Georgia. It's time for you to join them and discover the true taste of Georgian hospitality!
