Overview
Come on a journey into the past with us as we visit Mtskheta, a city steeped in history that dates back to the 11th millennium BC. Mtskheta was once the capital of the Iberian kingdom in Georgia, nestled at the confluence of the Kura and Aragvi rivers, an area that inspired many writers.
Our first stop is Jvari Monastery, a half-century-old monument where St. Nina erected a cross that played a pivotal role in Christianity's proclamation as a religion in the 4th century. Next, we'll visit Svetitskhoveli Cathedral, the patriarchal temple of the Georgian Orthodox Church, which houses the relics of important Christian saints.
We'll then travel to the city of Gori, where we'll explore the Stalin Museum and learn about significant moments from his life. Finally, we'll conclude our trip with a visit to Uplistsikhe, an ancient cave city on the banks of the Kura River that offers a glimpse into pre-Christian Georgia and life in the region.
Throughout our journey, you'll be accompanied by an English and Russian-speaking guide who will ensure you have a wonderful experience and provide insight into the fascinating history of this corner of Georgia.
