After breakfast, you will meet your guide in the hotel lobby and start your personal discovery of Georgia with a
city tour of its capital city, Tbilisi. First stop will be at glorious Sameba – the main cathedral and the tallest
religious building of the country. Next up is Metekhi Church located in the neighborhood of the same name
and gracefully situated on a cliff above Mtkvari river. Your guide will then take you to the new Rike Park to
admire the view and perhaps take a few photos in front of The Bridge of Peace, a stunning modern structure
designed by Italian architects and one of the new symbols of the city.
One of the highlights of the day is a visit to Narikala – the capital’s ancient fortress, where the stunning views
over the city will open out before you. You’ll be whisked to the top in a cable car and after your visit will
wander down by foot through the narrow and historic streets of the Old Town, among them the newly
renovated Shardeni kucha – the street which never sleeps, and one of Tbilisi’s nighttime hot spots.
After the city tour, you’ll be ready for lunch. Your guide will be happy to recommend a local restaurant so you
can try some Georgian dishes (lunch may be booked in advance – USD 12 PP) or you are free to find your own
spot if you prefer.
In the afternoon you’ll visit a beautiful and historic suburb of Tbilisi, Mtskheta – the old, legendary capital of
Georgia, just 20km from the city center. The Svetitskhoveli cathedral remains at the center of the Orthodox
church and has inspired many Georgian poets and artists over the years. Afterwards you’ll visit Jvari
Monastery (Monastery of the Cross), previously a pagan temple and latterly turned into Christian church.
