Travelogues Georgia

We say goodbye to the nice Georgian family. Then we head to the Eagle Gorge, also part of the Vlashlova National Park. A deep karst gorge that is not allowed to be entered. But...

The journey to the east continues. We first visit the Alaverdi Monastery. Founded in the 4th century, the newer, 11th century cathedral is the third largest church in Georgia....

We spent three nights in the freezing city of Borjomi. It was below freezing at night and shorts weather during the day. Luckily, there's the onion layering system. :D We went...

Hello everyone, since my blog still exists, I thought I could use it again during my time here in Georgia. It is much easier to upload the pictures here than to send them to...

Just three quarters of an hour away from the House at the Sea lies our next accommodation, Oxygen, right by the sea. We don't waste any time, toss our stuff into the room, and off...

So beautiful that we want to visit you a second time. We are now strolling along the promenade during the day, discovering huge jellyfish and cool pirate ships in the harbor,...

At House on the Hill, we're really enjoying ourselves and the wonderful peace and quiet of nature. Apart from a distant waterfall, there's absolutely nothing to hear – pure...

On this day, we plan to visit the Dashbashi Canyon and the Diamond Bridge. For about 40 million dollars (nobody really knows the exact amount), a mega-project was implemented...

Our last day of vacation together. Beate wants a trip to the David Gareaja cave monastery. Certainly doable just 100 km from Tbilisi. We cross a dream landscape with an arid...

The road to Mestia should be accessible by van, according to information in Ushguli. Only 8 km off-road, the remaining 36 km paved. First we take a walk through Ushguli and get...

At 9 a.m. the Mitsubishi Delica is in front of the campsite and we immediately set off on the road of death to Omalo. First 20 km of country road, then a Russian couple gets on...

Today we headed back inland to Kutaisi. The route itself is very pleasant, a bit of highway, a bit of country road, and a bit of village. Nice to look around... Especially the...

Today was all about exploring the city. Without a specific destination in mind, we wandered around Tbilisi, took the cable car up, walked downhill in a zigzag pattern, and...

After three nights and two days at sea, we arrived in Batumi this morning at 9 a.m. local time. I finally left the ship at around 11 a.m. The crossing was OK thanks to a few...

It has been a month since we arrived here in Tbilisi (Tiflis), the capital of Georgia in the heart of the Caucasus. The culture here is incomparable to what we experienced in...

On the first day of our journey, we first pick up our Gregor, a sturdy (hopefully) indestructible Toyota 4WD. After that, we drive from Tbilisi for 1.5 hours along relatively...

A sunny morning greets us. After breakfast we set off hiking. It was slightly below zero during the night and the first part of the path is in the shade. That makes us run...

Today we plan to drive up into the mountains to Mestia. According to the internet, the road is paved up to the top. On the way there we discover the Prometheus Cave just behind...

We are delighted by the city, which offers an enormous balance between modernity and ancient charm. We can highly recommend Tbilisi as an idea for a city trip.

After breakfast on the bus, we first head to Gelati Monastery, a Unesco World Heritage site just outside the city in the mountains. The most important building is the...

Today, let's relax and take it easy in Batumi. Tomorrow, we will move on. I will see if the ferry works, if not, I will re-enter Turkey and travel through the countryside. We...

04.-06.05.2022 • After arriving in Georgia, my first stop was the city of Batumi near the Turkish border. Without having a true sense of this country yet, it was difficult for...

Today is my lovely wife's birthday. In addition to the gifts, there is a Georgian chocolate cake with candles on it. This immediately improves our breakfast. Then we pack up and...

We never imagined what awaited us today. The road ends 30 km before the pass and we only continued off-road. Snowfall at the pass at an altitude of 2250 m. Luckily, the descent...

The last day of summer is supposed to be today. So we decide to take a rest day. We tidy up the van, go for a long swim and read a lot. In the evening we sit with Hubertus over...
