Georgia layers its Tbilisi sulphur baths and stone old town beneath a 5,000m Caucasus skyline, with the Kakheti wine region (the world's oldest) and the medieval towers of Svaneti within a day's drive.

When to Visit
May-Jun
Kakheti vineyards leaf out, Svaneti tower villages accessible without snow, and Tbilisi sulphur bath culture pleasant before summer heat.
Jul-Aug
Tbilisi hits 35°C and locals flee to Bakuriani or Borjomi. Caucasus high passes fully open and Tusheti track navigable.
Sep-Oct
Rtveli wine harvest across Kakheti, Caucasus larch turns gold around Kazbegi, and Tbilisi's outdoor cafés at their most pleasant.
Nov-Apr
Gudauri ski resort runs December through April, and Tbilisi's wine taverns and bath culture become the city's main winter draws.
