Pick by what you want
🇨🇾 Choose Cyprus if
you want reliable sun and warm sea with short flights from Europe and the Gulf, and a small island you can drive across in two hours.
🇬🇪 Choose Georgia if
you want the Caucasus, eight thousand years of wine and food nobody has heard of yet, on the smallest budget in Europe.
