Popular questions
A quick read on visas, currency, season and logistics before your trip.
Do I need a visa to visit Georgia?+
Citizens of 90+ countries (including the EU, US, UK, Canada, Australia) can enter Georgia visa-free for up to 1 year. You need a valid passport and, since 1 January 2026, health and accident insurance for the whole stay with at least 30,000 GEL coverage. Entry is possible via Tbilisi (TBS), Kutaisi (KUT), or Batumi (BUS) airports, or land borders with Turkey, Armenia, and Azerbaijan.
What currency is used in Georgia?+
The currency is the Georgian lari (GEL, ₾). Cards are widely accepted in Tbilisi and Batumi – restaurants, shops, taxis. In rural areas, markets, and small cafes, cash is needed. ATMs are everywhere with minimal fees.
When is the best time to visit Georgia?+
May-June and September-October are ideal: warm weather, fewer tourists. July-August is hot in cities but perfect for mountain hiking. Winter offers skiing (Gudauri, Bakuriani). For wine tourism in Kakheti, September–October is best (rtveli harvest season).
How do I get around Georgia?+
Marshrutkas (minibuses) and trains connect major cities (Tbilisi to Batumi in 5 hours). Renting a car is best for Kakheti and mountain regions, though mountain roads can be unpaved. In Tbilisi: metro, buses, and cheap ride-hailing apps (Bolt, YandexGo).
