Looking for a quick escape from the Gulf heat? Georgia offers something completely different from your typical Dubai break. In just four days, you’ll climb to a 14th-century church at 2,170 meters, taste 8,000-year-old winemaking traditions, and explore a city carved entirely into rock 3,000 years ago.

This isn’t a beach resort package. It’s mountain air, ancient monasteries, and wine straight from clay vessels buried underground. If you have a long Eid weekend or a few vacation days, this tour covers Eastern Georgia’s highlights without the rushed feeling of trying to see everything.

Why UAE Travelers Choose This Georgia Package

Direct flights make it easy. FlyDubai and Wizz Air connect Dubai, Sharjah, and Abu Dhabi to Tbilisi and Kutaisi. Three hours in the air, and you’re in a completely different world. No long-haul fatigue, no jet lag to manage.

Georgia welcomes Gulf visitors. UAE, Saudi, Kuwaiti, and Qatari passport holders get visa-free entry for up to one year. Just arrive and go. The immigration process at Tbilisi airport typically takes 15-20 minutes.

Halal food is widely available. Georgia’s proximity to Muslim-majority regions means most restaurants serve halal meat. Tbilisi has dedicated halal restaurants, and we work with kitchens that understand dietary requirements. Our wine tastings include fresh breads, cheeses, and Georgian dishes that are naturally vegetarian.

You’ll find prayer facilities. Tbilisi has several mosques, including the central Jumah Mosque in Old Town. We can arrange prayer time stops during the tour.

The weather works for Gulf schedules. April through November offer comfortable temperatures (15-28°C). Even sthe ummer months stay cooler than Dubai, especially in the mountains where Day 3 takes you.

What This Tour Actually Covers

This is an Eastern Georgia tour focusing on history, mountains, and wine regions. You won’t see the Black Sea coast or western Georgia (those need separate trips). Here’s what you will experience:

  • Tbilisi’s old and new sides. Medieval fortress views, sulfur bath neighborhoods, and the contrast of modern architecture built after independence.

  • Two UNESCO World Heritage sites. Mtskheta’s churches represent Georgia’s conversion to Christianity in 337 AD. Uplistsikhe shows pre-Christian cave city life.

  • High Caucasus mountain scenery. The Kazbegi region reaches over 2,300 meters elevation. Clear days offer views of Mount Kazbek (5,047m), Georgia’s third-highest peak.

  • Kakheti wine country. Georgia invented wine. Clay vessels called qvevri have been found dating back 8,000 years. You’ll taste wines made the traditional way, buried underground for fermentation.

Your 4-Day Itinerary

We pick you up at Tbilisi airport regardless of your arrival time. Most Dubai flights land in the morning, giving you a full first day.

After hotel check-in, we start with Tbilisi’s Old Town on foot. The narrow streets between 18th and 19th-century houses haven’t changed much in 200 years. The sulfur bath district (Abanotubani) sits where Tbilisi was founded in the 5th century, built around natural hot springs.

The cable car takes you up to Narikala Fortress for the best city overview. This 4th-century fortress watched Tbilisi get conquered by Persians, Arabs, Mongols, and Turks over 1,500 years. The view shows how the city spreads through the valley between two mountain ridges.

Rustaveli Avenue represents modern Georgia. Parliament, Opera House, and museums line the main boulevard. The architecture mixes 19th-century Russian Imperial style with Soviet buildings and new glass constructions from the last 20 years.

Evening: Free time. Tbilisi’s restaurant scene serves everything from traditional Georgian cuisine to international options. We’ll give you neighborhood recommendations based on what you want (quieter areas, nightlife zones, or restaurant streets).

Mtskheta served as Georgia’s capital for 1,000 years until the 6th century. Two churches here hold special importance:

Jvari Monastery (6th century) sits on the mountain overlooking where two rivers meet. The cross that gives it its name (“jvari” means cross) was erected in the 4th century when Georgia converted to Christianity. The church you see today was built 200 years later.

Svetitskhoveli Cathedral (11th century) is where Georgian kings were crowned and buried for centuries. Religious Georgians consider it the most sacred site in the country. The robe of Christ is believed to be buried under the cathedral’s central pillar.

The Mtskheta market sells churchkhela (a Georgian snack that looks like colorful candles but is actually nuts dipped in grape juice), spices, and handmade items.

Uplistsikhe is Georgia’s most impressive archaeological site. Starting in the 1st millennium BC, people carved an entire city into soft volcanic rock. At its peak, 20,000 people lived in these caves. You’ll walk through rock-cut streets, see a pagan temple that became a Christian church, and understand how defensible this position was.

Lunch with wine tasting happens at a traditional Georgian winery or family cellar. Georgian wine ferments in clay vessels called qvevri, buried up to their necks in the ground. This technique creates wines that taste different from anything made with modern methods. You’ll try 4-5 wines with Georgian appetizers (cheeses, pickles, fresh vegetables) and a hot meal.

Return to Tbilisi in the late afternoon

This is the longest driving day but the mountain scenery justifies it. The Georgian Military Highway north from Tbilisi follows an ancient route through the Caucasus, used by traders and armies for 2,000 years.

Ananuri Fortress (16th-17th century) guards the Aragvi River valley. The fortress overlooks Jinvali Reservoir, a massive artificial lake created in 1985. The contrast between medieval stone towers and Soviet-era dam engineering shows Georgia’s layered history.

Gudauri is Georgia’s main ski resort. In summer and fall, the ski slopes turn into green mountain meadows. The road climbs through hairpin turns with increasingly dramatic views.

Jvari Pass at 2,395 meters marks the highest point on the road. On clear days, you see mountain ranges stretching in every direction. The monument here commemorates the Georgian-Russian friendship (built in Soviet times, now mostly viewed with irony by Georgians).

Stepantsminda (Kazbegi) is the main town in this mountain region. We switch to 4×4 jeeps here for the climb to Gergeti Trinity Church. The road is rough, gaining 400 meters elevation in 20 minutes of bouncing over rocks and mud.

Gergeti Trinity Church stands alone at 2,170 meters with Mount Kazbek rising behind it. Built in the 14th century, this church served as a refuge during invasions – enemies couldn’t reach it. The views from here are what bring people to Georgia. On a clear day, you see the glacier on Kazbek’s peak.

The jeep ride down is equally bumpy. We stop in Stepantsminda for lunch before driving back to Tbilisi. The return trip is faster, arriving in early evening.

Kakheti is Georgia’s main wine-producing region. The Alazani Valley between the Greater and Lesser Caucasus mountains creates perfect grape-growing conditions. Over 500 varieties of grapes grow in Georgia, most found nowhere else.

Sighnaghi (also spelled Signagi) is a small hilltop town with Italian-looking architecture and 4 kilometers of defensive walls built in the 18th century. The town overlooks the Alazani Valley with views stretching to the Caucasus mountains. Walk the cobblestone streets, see the traditional architecture, and understand why this region produces Georgia’s finest wines.

Wine tasting with lunch (optional but recommended) lets you compare Kakheti wines to what you tried on Day 2. Saperavi (red) and Rkatsiteli (white) are the main varieties from this region. Georgian food pairs naturally with wine – the cuisine developed alongside winemaking over millennia.

Return to Tbilisi in the afternoon. Depending on your flight time, we either take you directly to the airport or give you a few more hours in the city.

  • Personal expenses and souvenirs

Why we don’t include all meals: UAE travelers often have specific dietary requirements. Some want halal meat options, others prefer vegetarian meals, and some want to explore Tbilisi’s restaurants independently. This flexibility works better than forcing everyone to eat at the same places. We’ll give you restaurant recommendations for each area.

Hotel Options

You choose your hotel category when booking. We work with properties across different price ranges in Tbilisi:

Budget tier: Clean 3-star hotels in good locations. Private bathrooms, air conditioning, WiFi.

Mid-range: 4-star hotels with better amenities, often including breakfast. Locations in or near Old Town.

Premium: 5-star hotels and boutique properties. Some occupy restored 19th-century buildings with modern interiors.

All hotels are centrally located within walking distance of restaurants and attractions. We don’t use hotels in distant suburbs.

Booking and Cancellation

Booking deposit: 30% required to confirm your tour. Remaining balance due 7 days before tour start.

Cancellation policy:

  • 30+ days before: Full refund minus 10% processing fee
  • 15-29 days before: 50% refund
  • 7-14 days before: 25% refund
  • Less than 7 days: No refund

Tours operate year-round. We run this itinerary daily from April to November, and on request during winter months.

Changes to itinerary: Weather in the mountains can be unpredictable. If heavy snow closes the road to Kazbegi (rare but possible in early spring or late fall), we substitute with alternative mountain destinations.

Best time to visit: April to November. July and August are warmest but the mountains stay comfortable. September and October offer harvest season in wine regions and autumn colors in the mountains. April and May bring spring flowers.

What to pack: Layers work best. Tbilisi and Kakheti get warm (25-30°C in summer), but Kazbegi stays cooler (15-20°C). Bring comfortable walking shoes with good grip for Uplistsikhe caves and mountain walks. A light jacket for evenings and mountain areas.

Currency: Georgian Lari (GEL). Cards are widely accepted in Tbilisi, but bring cash for small towns and wine cellars. ATMs at the airport and throughout Tbilisi.

Language: Most tourism workers speak basic English. Russian is widely understood (especially among older Georgians). Arabic is less common, but many restaurants in tourist areas have multilingual menus.

Mobile connectivity: Georgian SIM cards with data are cheap (10-15 GEL for tourist packages). Available at the airport and phone shops. Your UAE number will work on roaming but costs more.

Cultural notes: Georgia is a traditional country but welcoming to visitors. No strict dress codes except inside churches (women should cover shoulders, men remove hats). Most Georgians are Orthodox Christian, and churches are active worship spaces, not just tourist sites.

Photography: Allowed everywhere except inside some churches (signs will indicate). The mountain scenery on Day 3 offers the best photo opportunities.

Contact us to check availability for your dates. We respond to inquiries within 24 hours and can customize this itinerary if you need specific changes.

Direct flights from Dubai depart daily. From Sharjah, several times weekly. Most UAE travelers fly out Friday or Saturday morning and return Monday or Tuesday afternoon, making this perfect for long weekends.

additional notes

No. UAE passport holders get visa-free entry to Georgia for up to one year. Just show your passport at Tbilisi airport. The immigration process typically takes 15-20 minutes.

No. You book flights separately. We provide airport transfers once you arrive in Georgia. FlyDubai and Wizz Air offer direct flights from Dubai, Sharjah, and Abu Dhabi. Flight time is approximately 3 hours.

Private. This is your own vehicle and guide. We don’t mix different families or groups unless you specifically request to join a shared tour for better pricing.

Yes. Many travelers extend with western Georgia (Batumi beach region) or more time in Tbilisi for shopping and dining. Contact us about extensions and we can customize the itinerary.

Yes, halal food is widely available throughout Georgia. We work with restaurants that serve halal meat. Many Georgian dishes are naturally vegetarian including khachapuri (cheese bread), lobio (bean stew), and badrijani (eggplant rolls). We’ll point out halal restaurants in areas where you have free time.

Yes. Wine tastings include alcoholic wine made from local grape varieties. If you prefer not to drink alcohol, tastings can focus on the winemaking process, food, and non-alcoholic beverages. Many cellars produce excellent grape juices using the same traditional qvevri methods.

Moderate level. Uplistsikhe cave city involves climbing through uneven rock-cut paths. Gergeti Trinity Church requires a short walk from where the jeep drops you (5-10 minutes uphill). Old Town Tbilisi has hills and cobblestones. No serious hiking required, but comfortable walking shoes are essential.

Georgia’s weather is changeable, especially in the mountains. Light rain doesn’t stop the tour and we provide guidance on rain gear. Heavy snow can close the Kazbegi road in winter months (rare but possible). If this happens, we substitute alternative mountain destinations at no extra cost.

Yes. The tour works well for families with children. The 4×4 jeep ride to Gergeti excites kids, and the cave city is fascinating for all ages. Let us know children’s ages when booking so we can adjust the pacing and choose appropriate restaurants.

Not required but strongly recommended. Georgia’s mountain roads and activities carry some inherent risk. Insurance covering medical emergencies and trip cancellation gives peace of mind. Make sure your policy covers activities up to 2,400 meters elevation.

Tbilisi has several mosques including the central Jumah Mosque in Old Town. During tour days outside Tbilisi, we can arrange prayer time stops. Let us know your requirements when booking and we’ll plan accordingly.

Georgian Lari (GEL) is the local currency. Cards are widely accepted in Tbilisi, but bring cash for small towns, markets, and wine cellars. ATMs are available at the airport and throughout Tbilisi. Exchange rates are better at local exchange offices than at the airport.

Why Choose This Tour

This tour works because it focuses on one region properly rather than rushing through everything. Four days lets you experience Georgia’s core identity: mountains, ancient history, and wine culture.

We’ve run this itinerary for UAE travelers specifically. We understand the flight schedules from Dubai, the dietary requirements, and what surprises Gulf visitors about Georgia (how green everything is, how different the architecture looks, how seriously Georgians take hospitality).

Georgia isn’t trying to compete with Dubai’s luxury. It offers something completely different: old mountain villages, monasteries that predate Islam, and wine traditions older than written history. For a long weekend or Eid break, this tour shows you why Georgia has become the Gulf’s favorite nearby escape.
