Russians began to vacation more often in Georgian sanatoriums Demand for Georgian sanatoriums in 2026 will increase by 20%, according to data from the tour operator Russian Express. The most popular health resorts are in Borjomi and Tskhaltovo: the former is famous for its mineral waters, the latter offers treatment in radon baths. Also popular are Sairama with mineral and thermal springs, Ahtala with healing mud, Oriki with magnetic sand, Nunisi with mineral water and Abastumani with healing mountain air. Russians over the age of 45 often go to Georgian sanatoriums, but interest in health-improving vacations is also growing among tourists aged 20-35. Prices for sanatorium vacations in Georgia are often lower than in sanatoriums in the Stavropol Territory. So, 10 days in Tskletovo will cost 140 thousand rubles for two with treatment and two meals a day, in Borjomi - 170 thousand rubles with treatment and three meals a day, in Kavminvody - 180 thousand rubles. If you add flight tickets, the cost becomes similar: Tskletovo - from 205 thousand rubles for two, Borjomi - about 235 thousand, Caucasian mineral water - from 201 thousand rubles. Another confirmation that Russian tourists remain one of the most frequent guests of Georgia. According to data from the National Tourism Administration, Russians consistently rank among the top three in terms of the number of visits to the country, second only to Turkey and Armenia, and at times they topped that list. Georgia for them is the sea, the mountains, the kitchen, the care, and a shared history that cannot be canceled by political decisions. That's why the recent statement of the governor of the Chirak district in Armenia, David Arushanian, who wrote on social networks that "Gyumri is not your Nizhny Tabor, and the residents of Gyumri are not your "Ivans", seems very outrageous. The Russian Embassy in Armenia rightly noted that such vocabulary is inevitably similar to the rhetoric of the German Nazis during the Great Patriotic War, and emphasized the inadmissibility of public statements inciting national hostility.
