can’t afford the Dolomites? try Svaneti instead 🏔️🇬🇪

#cheaptravel If visiting the Dolomites feels out of reach, the Caucasus Mountains in Svaneti, Georgia are the perfect alternative for budget travelers. This stunning region is home to dramatic peaks, medieval stone towers, and glacier-fed valleys without the high prices. You can stay in cozy guesthouses for $15–30 a night, often with home-cooked meals included. Hiking trails are free, incredibly scenic, and much less crowded than in Western Europe. The village of Mestia makes a great base, and you can take a public minibus (marshrutka) from Tbilisi or Zugdidi for just a few dollars. #georgia #travelonabudget #travel
