Azerbaijan, Georgia & Armenia Adventure

Head off the beaten track on a 20-day adventure through the Caucuses region, where historical Old Towns and monasteries sit alongside towering skyscrapers. With a local leader by your side, you’ll journey from the Black Sea to huge, shimmering lakes, stopping at wineries, small villages, jazzy capitals and the serene countryside. Enjoy a hearty home-cooked lunch with a local Kakheti family and hike to the iconic Gergeti Trinity Church. Seek bezoars with an expert ranger and stay overnight in a lake cottage supporting inclusiveness. This trip shows you all the local bits (and all the highlights) of this gorgeous mountainous area. This trip has a couple of long travel days with a few stops along the way to break up the journey.You’ll spend a night at a local lodge, where the facilities may be humble and shared. Your support for the local NGO and the great location so close to Lake Sevan will more than makeup for the lack of modern amenities, and you’re sure to have a memorable stay.Some of the best scenery in the region is found on foot. So, while this trip doesn't require a high level of fitness, it’s essential to be at least moderately fit if you want to partake in all activities. Make sure you bring comfortable walking shoes with good support.This trip is a combination of two trips. Please review the Itinerary for details of when your fellow travellers and leader will change.
