Itinerary
Step into the forgotten grandeur of Tskaltubo, once a famous Soviet spa resort. The abandoned sanatoriums — with their crumbling facades, marble halls, and overgrown courtyards — tell haunting stories of the past. Perfect for urban explorers, photographers, and history lovers, these silent giants offer a unique and surreal experience just a short drive from Kutaisi.
Tetra Cave is one of Georgia’s most spectacular yet lesser-known natural attractions. Located in the Imereti region, this stunning karst cave features breathtaking stalactites, stalagmites, and underground rivers, offering an unforgettable adventure for nature lovers and explorers. Why Visit Tetra Cave? ✔ Otherworldly Beauty – Walk through illuminated chambers filled with dramatic rock formations, some resembling frozen waterfalls or mythical creatures. ✔ Less Crowded – Unlike the more famous Prometheus Cave, Tetra Cave offers a more intimate, off-the-beaten-path experience.

About Kutaisi
Kutaisi is one of Georgia's oldest cities, a former royal capital on the Rioni River with a ruined cathedral, hillside monasteries and a covered market.
Kutaisi, the main city of Imereti in western Georgia, was once the capital of the kingdom of Western Georgia and is linked by legend with Aia, the land of Jason and the Golden Fleece. The Rioni River runs through the centre, and the Colchis Fountain, with gilded animals, stands on one of its squares. The Bagrati Cathedral, an eleventh-century church on a hilltop, was ruined by the Ottomans in 1692 and rebuilt in modern times.
