The official currency in Georgia is the Georgian Lari (GEL). Some offers may be quoted in USD or EUR, but everyday payments are usually in GEL.
Cards are common in cities, while cash is useful for small expenses, markets, villages and some transport. Budget depends on hotel level, city count, vehicle type, season, restaurants and activities.
