A small but mighty country in the South Caucasus, once part of the Soviet Union, Georgia is the best country for those looking for off-the-beaten-track adventure with a few home comforts thrown in. Aside from its capital, Tbilisi, Georgia’s nature and mountains will blow you away. Home to a large section of the Greater Caucasus, a mountain range that forms a natural land border with Russia, no trip to Georgia is complete without a visit to the Svaneti Region or Kazbegi.
