In our fifth season, join us for an exploration of Georgia's oldest monasteries, founded in the sixth century by Christian ascetics from Syria. Be among the first westerners to rediscover the frescoes and acoustics of these ancient houses of worship set amidst rolling vineyards, towering peaks, and the desert vistas of the Caspian basin.

This would be an exciting tour, I think.
I want to make next trip to Moastery Tour but now i am booked for shirdi tour package.
I want to join that Tour but I think that is impossible because I was in the other side of the earth. I know that the Tour is going to be so much fun.
