Georgia has been claiming its deserved place on the world touristic map for around the last 15 years and this journey has been amazing so far.
There are many reasons to visit this small and beautiful country full of astonishing spots - Tbilisi with its mix of history and modern nightlife, Batumi with its extraordinary architecture, Kakheti and delicious wine, Stepantsminda and Svaneti with unbelievable views, etc.
Despite being located on such a tiny area, Georgia is a very diverse country and diversity makes it even more intriguing to explore. Huge mountains, seaside, desert and dozens of various microclimates have formed different lifestyles in the regions of Georgia and as a result of this, every tiny part of the country has become famous for its unique and tasty cuisine.
Khinkali in the mountains, Khachapuri in the west, wine in Kakheti accompanied by other delicious meals are some of the most important reasons why one must visit Georgia and gain few extra kilograms during the trip.
Mariam & Levan's Cooking Class offers it all (well, gaining some weight is optional): delicious homemade traditional dishes, homemade red and white wine alongside with that superalcoholic chacha, interesting conversations about the history, traditions, culture and modern life of Georgia during the dinner with the hosts, and an opportunity to take part in the cooking.
So if you're interested in learning a lot about the country during just one evening, do not miss out on this experience - the hosts will pick you up from any location within Tbilisi.
