Next destination Caucasus!

27 Maggio 2026

In this article dated May 27, 2026, I discuss the destination Caucasus with one day to go.

The 10-day trip with a taste of Azerbaijan, Georgia and Armenia will be solo, using public transportation and some locally taken tours. Below is the assumed itinerary:

Baku (Azerbaijan)
Gobustan Park (Azerbaijan)
Tbilisi (Georgia)
Mtskheta (Georgia)
Kazbegi Region (Georgia)
Dilijan (Armenia)
Yerevan (Armenia)
Area south of Yerevan (Armenia)

As is often the case with me, someone will think I have gone crazy. I have been told with alarmed expressions : That is, 3 countries in 10 days!!!? More or less every time I embark on a trip there are those who make such remarks to me.

Granted that the countries are small, with organization you can do a lot. Most importantly, my philosophy remains to taste as many different places as possible and then maybe I will come back.

Next destination Caucasus, the video presentation

Many people do not even know where the Caucasus is and that it is considered European territory, even though it borders Asia. In the three very different remote former Soviet republics, I will find nature with spectacular mountains, ancient villages and monasteries, and modern cities. During the periods based in the three capitals, I will make excursions to nearby areas.

I also expect a lot from the transfers. In fact, I will have the opportunity to cross or see up close the Caucasus mountain range that gives the region its name.

Below is the video with the presentation, featured on my you tube channel. On the way I trust to post more live.
