Exploring Georgia’s gastronomy offers tourists unique insights into the country and its culture.

Enriching tourists’ experiences also has the potential to attract more visitors which can generate vital income in rural communities.

The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) are working to unite Georgia's unique food heritage, traditions and landscapes, by strengthening the links between agriculture and tourism.

Last year, EBRD and FAO organized a study tour to Tuscany and Campania for representatives of Georgia’s producers’ associations, agritourism operators, and public authorities to learn from Italy’s experience and expertise in agritourism.
