What to expect
Metekhi Cathedral
A boring walk to the maximum - from the origins of the city and ancient temples to colorful stories and wine Let's start from the Metekhi Plateau: admiring the panorama of the Old Town and Narikala Fortress, let's talk about the origins of Tbilisi. You will learn about the first settlement that existed here before the arrival of Vakhtang Gorgasali, and about the affairs of this king.
Kartli mother who looks at old Tbilisi, you will contact her by cable car. "Mother of Georgia" is a symbol of Georgian national character: the statue holds a cup of wine in one hand for lovers and a sword in the other for enemies. From where the views of Tbilisi can be seen.
Sulfur Bath No 5
In the sulfur baths where Marco Polo was also. I will tell you not only the legend of the founding of Falcon and Tbilisi, but also lesser-known details: for example, why 15 out of 65 baths remained and why they have such names (from simple 5 to elegant "Royal" and "variegated")
Old Town Tbilisi
In the same area you will reach a real waterfall along the Fig Valley, and on the way you will admire the graceful Tbilisi balconies - I will tell you why they served in different eras and why it was impossible to find two identical specimens.
Take a walk on the Peace Bridge and learn about its beautiful symbolism, as well as what the locals think about the glass skyscraper and unusual pipes in Rike Park. You will drive to Tbilisi Fortress by cable car, from where you will see the small houses of old Tbilisi and its beautiful historic narrow streets.
Old Town Tbilisi
Tastes and flavor of a warm city A proper walk in Tbilisi is inconceivable without stories about Tbilisi residents, the Georgian mentality and cuisine! To make you feel better about the life of the townspeople, I will show you the famous Italian courtyards, talk about the city day, the colorful Tbilisoba festival, and about jokes written on the turret of the Rezo Gabriadze theater. At the Tamada monument, you will reveal the secrets of the Georgian feast - believe me, this is a whole science! In the middle of the walk (just when you want to relax) you will find a wine tasting in the cellar of the 17th century, where only exclusive wines are stored. The tasting takes place over an hour without restrictions and with the comments of the winemaker.
