This Woman's Georgia Trip Cost Just Rs 70,000. Here's How She Did It

Georgia has steadily emerged as a favourite destination among Indian travellers. The country is known for its scenic mountains, charming old towns, rich history and relatively affordable travel options. Adding to the appeal is the fact that a well-planned trip to Georgia does not necessarily have to be expensive.

Travel creators Akshita and Jash shared how they explored the country on a budget of just Rs 70,000. From flights and accommodation to local transport and sightseeing, they broke down the expenses and explained how careful planning helped them keep costs under control while making the most of their trip.

Why Georgia Is A Great Budget Destination

Just a five-hour flight away, Georgia offers Indian travellers the chance to experience European-style landscapes without spending a fortune. According to Akshita, you can apply for a Georgia eVisa, which can be obtained within around three to five days. A seven-day trip can also be planned within a budget of approximately Rs 70,000 with careful spending.
