1. Your guide will meet you at your hotel or chosen pickup address in Tbilisi and we’ll begin our journey to Mtskheta, the ancient capital of Georgia — located just 40 minutes from Tbilisi. Mtskheta is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in Georgia, with a history of more than 2,600 years. As the former capital of the early Kingdom of Iberia, it holds immense historical and spiritual importance for the Georgian people. Upon arrival, we’ll park near the entrance to the city and take a pleasant walk through the charming old streets of Mtskheta. Along the way, you’ll see cozy souvenir shops, traditional snack stands, and local wine-tasting spots, giving you a taste of authentic Georgian culture. The highlight of our visit will be the Svetitskhoveli Cathedral — one of the most sacred places in Georgia. According to tradition, it is the resting place of the robe of Christ, making it a deeply spiritual and unforgettable stop on our tour.

About Tbilisi

Tbilisi, de hoofdstad van Georgië, ligt langs een rivierkloof onder een fort, met oude huizen met balkons, zwavelbaden en gedurfde moderne bouwwerken.

De oude stad ligt langs de Mtkvari, met smalle straten vol houten balkons met houtsnijwerk, kerken en wijnbars. Abanotubani, de badwijk, wordt bekroond door bakstenen koepels boven zwavelbronnen, en de muren van het Narikala-fort kijken over alles uit, te bereiken met de kabelbaan of een steile wandeling. Het standbeeld Moeder Georgië staat op de bergkam met een zwaard en een kom wijn.
