  Take a marshrutka (minibus) or bus from your location in Kvemo Kartli to Tbilisi. Most marshrutkas will drop you off at a central location like the Didube Bus Station. From there, you can take a city bus or taxi to reach the Old Tbilisi area. If taking a taxi, provide the driver with the address: Gorgasali Street at the intersection with Grishashvili Street. The fare will vary but expect to pay around 10-15 GEL for the taxi ride. If you opt for a bus, take bus number 69 or 78, which will get you closer to the area.
