For your trip, I recommend a mix of practical guides and cultural reading. For guidebooks, consider:“Lonely Planet Georgia, Armenia & Azerbaijan” for up-to-date practical information on Tbilisi and Kakheti; and “Bradt Travel Guide: Georgia” for more in-depth cultural and historical context, especially useful for understanding wine regions and monasteries. For background reading, “The Making of the Georgian Nation” by Ronald Grigor Suny offers a solid historical overview, while “Feast: Food of the Islamic World” by Anissa Helou (which includes sections on Georgian and regional cuisine) is excellent for understanding the food culture you’ll encounter. If you enjoy wine, “The Vineyards of Georgia” (if available in your region or online as a specialized wine guide) will give you deeper insight into qvevri winemaking and the Kakheti wine tradition. Before you go, also check the websites and blogs of local Tbilisi tour operators and wine cellars (search for “Kakheti wine tours from Tbilisi”) to read recent traveler tips and discover additional boutique wineries to visit during your tour.
