Included in Price

• All breakfasts, seven lunches and four dinners are included. Georgian specialities include khachapuri (cheese pies), khinkali (meat dumplings) and lobio (bean stew with herbs and spices). There are many sauces made from walnuts to accompany cheese or meat dishes. Churchekhela (walnuts in solid grape juice) is a typical local sweet. Armenian specialities feature a variety of local cheeses, flat lavash bread, sweet lavash made from fruits, khoravats (barbecues), dolma (stuffed vine leaves), kartofel (raisin and apricot pilaf rice dish) and kyufta (veal meatballs cooked with cognac). Local beer, wine, vodka and cognac are readily available in both countries as is fruit vodka, which is locally distilled and tastes more like grappa. Still and sparkling water is easy to find, as are other soft drinks. There is a huge variety of food in both countries. Vegetarians can easily be catered for, as there are lots of fruit and vegetables, cheese and other dairy products, various local breads and dumplings. Vegans or those with a wheat or dairy intolerance will find there is far less variety but can be accommodated. Walnuts are ubiquitous in salads and sauces, so those with nut allergies should be aware. Please advise Exodus at the time of booking if this affects you.
