Highly rated British publication The Independent has named Georgia among the world’s best travel destinations for 2026.

According to The Independent’s travel expert Lauren Taylor, Georgia is becoming increasingly popular among international tourists.

“easyJet launched a new flight route from London Luton to Georgia’s capital Tbilisi toward the end of 2025, and the Eastern European country is set to attract increasing numbers of visitors with other new international flight routes launching in 2026 – after previously being somewhat overlooked in neighbour Turkey’s shadow”, - reads the publication.

Georgia was included in The Independent’s travel list alongside destinations such as Mallorca, the United States, South Korea, and other well-known locations.
