With this 11-day adventure, you’ll travel overland from Georgia to Armenia and experience off-the-beaten-track landscapes and welcoming, local people
  • Support local communities – visit the first café in Armenia to provide employment opportunities to people living with disabilities, stay by Lake Sevan at a local NGO committed to inclusivity and attend a cooking workshop where the local women work to preserve Armenian culture.
  • Veer off the tourist track to see the lesser-known side of Georgia – see the Soviet ghost town of Tskhaltubo to wander the abandoned sanatoriums, explore Vardzia’s Cave Town to learn about 12th-century history and walk to Borjomi’s natural mineral springs.
  • Follow a peaceful forest trail to two secluded medieval monasteries in Dilijan National Park – Armenia’s tranquil escape in the heart of the mountains.
  • Learn about the region’s proud wine traditions with a visit to a local family winery in Georgia, then stop for a wine tasting in Armenia.
  • Take in the stunning views of Khor Virap Monastery and Sevanavank Monastery – the ancient buildings set against the natural backdrops of mountains and blue lakes are just as impressive as the layered histories!
