ARTISTRY OF THE CAUCASUS
Our cultural immersion includes inspiring discoveries of local music, art and dance. Enjoy private musical performances in Azerbaijan and Armenia. Marvel at the ornate hall of mirrors in the Georgian capital, Tbilisi. And meet with a master instrument maker in Yerevan.
DISCOVERY OF FIRE & FUTURISTIC LANDMARKS
A three-night stay in Baku begins our journey. Azerbaijan’s capital chronicles the dawn of civilisation and its harnessing of the elements, with its petroglyphs, fire temples and gas vents. Look upon the city’s soaring ‘Flame Towers’ and wander the open-air museum of Gobustan.
COLOURFUL COMMUNITIES
An assortment of architectural styles graces the streets of Sololaki. Accompanied by an architect, we admire the Art Nouveau, Baroque, and Neoclassical buildings that occupy the eclectic Georgian district. Wooden balconies, colourful facades and decorative elements vie for our attention.
ARMENIA'S LAKESIDE WONDERS
Sevanavank Monastery provides postcard-perfect views from its position along a narrow peninsula. These serene sights take in the gleaming waters of Lake Sevan, which comprises one-sixth of Armenia’s territory.
GEGHARD MONASTERY'S INSPIRING SETTING
Admire Armenia’s medieval architecture at Geghard Monastery. The revered monument, carved into the surrounding rocky landscape, features several churches and tombs of great historical value. The site also includes a convent, situated within a cave.
