Lavash being baked in a clay tonir on an Armenia Georgia food tour from India

Why Safari Sutra?

Most Caucasus food tours stay in one country; we follow bread and wine across the border, from Armenian tonirs and Areni's ancient cave to Georgian qvevri, with every family and kitchen briefed on vegetarian and Jain needs before you arrive. Starting in Yerevan and ending in Tbilisi means the road journey is part of the menu, not a gap between meals.
