Itinerary

1. This trip is an opportunity to see four important locations in one day. Let’s start with the ancient capital – Mtskheta , where the Svetitskhoveli Cathedral is located – one of the main spiritual places of Georgia. And on the top of the mountain, opposite, rises the Jvari Monastery – from where a picturesque view of the confluence of two rivers and the city opens up. Next we go to Gori , the hometown of Joseph Stalin. There we will visit the Stalin Museum , founded during his lifetime in 1937. The exhibition includes documents, personal belongings and artifacts telling about his life and era. We finish the day in Uplistsikhe , a unique rock-cut city that began to form in the 6th century BC. Here you can see ancient temples, halls, secret passages, wine cellars and even a water supply system. And the surrounding landscapes are a separate pleasure. This journey is filled with history, religion, architecture and views that will stay in your memory for a long time.

About Tbilisi

Tbilisi, Georgia's capital, spills along a river gorge beneath a fortress, mixing balconied old houses, sulphur baths and bold modern landmarks.

The old town gathers along the Mtkvari River, its narrow streets lined with carved wooden balconies, churches and wine bars. Abanotubani, the bath district, is crowned by brick domes over sulphur springs, and the walls of Narikala Fortress overlook it all, reached by cable car or a steep walk. The Mother of Georgia statue stands on the ridge holding a sword and a bowl of wine.
