Imereti & Samegrelo (Kutaisi, Gelati, Martvili)
December tends to be chilly and wet rather than snowy in the lower Imereti valleys - daytime temperatures usually hover around 2-7°C with frequent rainfall. Thermal springs near Tskaltubo are popular with locals seeking warm baths, and some mountain passes already begin seeing early snow. Pack warm, waterproof gear and plan for limited daylight for outdoor excursions; this is a slow season ideal for relaxed museum and food-focused travel.
Tbilisi & Kakheti (Eastern Georgia - capital and wine country)

Greater Caucasus & Svaneti (Stepantsminda/Kazbegi, Mestia, Ushguli)
December brings reliable alpine winter conditions: deep snow, regular freezing, and classic mountain scenery - the kind that fills postcards - but also real logistical challenges. The Georgian Military Road and mountain passes may be subject to closures after storms, and many rural guesthouses reduce services for the season. For winter sports or snow photography, this is prime time; for simple overland scenic travel, choose lower elevations or ensure you have flexible itineraries.
