Turkey & Georgia

1 itinerary · 0 open departures · 0 missions

Turkey and Georgia together offer one of the most diverse travel corridors in the world, spanning two continents and centuries of layered history. Turkey captivates with its Ottoman architecture, bustling bazaars, turquoise Aegean coastline, and surreal landscapes like Cappadocia's fairy chimneys. Neighbouring Georgia draws travellers with its rugged Caucasus mountain villages, ancient monasteries, renowned wine culture in the Kakheti region, and the vibrant capital Tbilisi. The combination attracts independent and group travellers seeking rich culture, dramatic scenery, excellent food, and an off-the-beaten-path feel that remains genuinely rewarding.

Self-Launched Turkey to Georgia Highlights: Istanbul to Tbilisi Overland

A 21-day independent version of the Istanbul-to-Tbilisi classic route: Gallipoli, Troy, Ephesus, Cappadocia's fairy chimneys, Mt Nemrut, Gobekli Tepe, Mardin, Lake Van and Ani, then across into Georgia for Tbilisi, Kazbegi, Gori, Uplistsikhe, Kutaisi and Mtskheta. You'll use Turkey's excellent intercity buses and domestic flights, overnight trains, and Georgia's marshrutka minibuses instead of a private vehicle, and book your own guesthouses and day tours through GetYourGuide/Klook or directly with local operators. Costs are approximate backpacker/mid-range estimates in GBP.

Missions

Nobody's posted a Mission for Turkey & Georgia yet — which, frankly, is an opportunity.

Wait, what's a Mission?It's not a scheduled trip with dates and a minimum group size like a Departure — it's a goal. Learn to dive, do a Muay Thai camp, live somewhere for a month and work on something, chase one very specific experience. Post it, and other people chasing the same thing find you.

Be the first to post one: "Learn the first 20 seconds of a local dance, then perform it, uninvited, at every bar you visit."
