Georgia (the country) is a popular destination among overlanders. For long-term travelers, the region is a dream, and a trip to Georgia can be easily combined with visits to some neighboring countries.

- Since January 1, 2026, travelers entering Georgia must provide proof of health and accident insurance with a minimum coverage of 30,000 GEL (approx. 10,000 EUR or approx. 11,000 USD) for the entire duration of their stay.
- A corresponding confirmation from the respective insurance company must be presented in English or Georgian when crossing the border.
