Overview of the tour in Tbilisi

Embark on a compelling tour of Georgia's historical landmarks. Begin in Mtskheta, one of the country’s oldest cities, where you can explore the 6th-century Jvari Monastery, offering panoramic views of the confluence of the Aragvi and Mtkvari rivers. Visit Samtavro Monastery, a key religious site known for its blend of architectural styles and its connection to St. Nino, the woman who evangelized Georgia.

Next, travel to Gori to visit the Stalin Museum, which is dedicated to Joseph Stalin. The complex includes his childhood home and exhibits his controversial legacy. Adjacent to the museum, explore the Gori Fortress, an ancient stronghold that provides insight into the region’s military history and offers panoramic views of the surrounding area.

Finish your tour at Uplistsikhe, a remarkable ancient rock-hewn town dating back to the early Iron Age. Walk through its cave dwellings and temples, which reveal the ingenuity of early Georgian civilization.
