Experience authentic Georgian hospitality through food, wine, tradition, and history in a warm local family environment located around 1.5 hours from Tbilisi, Georgia.
Begin with a visit to the historic Vezirishvilebi Castle, an atmospheric historical site connected to Georgia’s noble past. Although much of the structure is now partially ruined, its remaining stone architecture and quiet surroundings create a powerful and emotional atmosphere that reflects the passage of time and the deep history of the region. Walking through the remains of the castle offers guests a unique opportunity to experience a lesser-known side of Georgia filled with mystery, history, and authentic countryside charm.
After visiting the castle and enjoying the surrounding landscapes, join an interactive Georgian cooking masterclass where you will learn how to prepare some of the country’s most iconic traditional dishes using homemade recipes passed down through generations.
Together with a local Georgian family, participate in the preparation of khinkali (traditional Georgian dumplings), khachapuri (cheese-filled Georgian bread), lobiani (traditional bean-filled bread), and mtsvadi (Georgian barbecue).
During the experience, enjoy homemade Georgian wine tasting and traditional chacha tasting while learning about Georgian culture, traditions, family life, and the famous Georgian supra hospitality.
This experience is designed for travelers seeking authentic local experiences beyond standard sightseeing tours. Connect with local people, discover Georgian culinary traditions, enjoy homemade food, and experience genuine Georgian warmth and hospitality in a cozy family atmosphere.
The experience is family-friendly and suitable for couples, solo travelers, groups, and families with children. Children under 3 years old can join free of charge.
Optional additions may include Georgian toastmaster traditions, traditional music, recipe sharing, and outdoor garden dining depending on the weather.
