Georgian Wonders Summer Special - 4 nights 5 days

This morning, your day kicks off with a tour of Tbilisi. With a friendly guide in tow, you will set out to discover the region’s blend of iconic structures, legendary monuments, and hidden gems. Enjoy an up-close and detailed look at the splendid Holy Trinity Cathedral, stop at the iconic Metekhi church, and capture some cool snaps against the monument of Vakhtang Gorgasali – the founder of Tbilisi. 

As the tour continues, you will head to the Old Town whose highlights range from Narikala Fortress – a Persian Citadel to the antiquated Sulphur Bathhouse District and other monumental gems such as monumental treasures such as Sioni Cathedral. You also get to see the Peace Bridge and visit the marionette theatre of Rezo Gabriadze Theatre as part of your tour. 

Following a smooth drive of approximately 20 kilometers from Tbilisi, you will arrive at Mtskheta which was once the capital of Eastern Georgia Kingdom from 3rd century BC to 5th century AD. With your experienced guide, get ready to immerse yourself in its inimitable old world charm as you make stops at some of the region’s most treasured gems. This includes UNESCO World Heritages Sites such as the venerated Svetitskhoveli Cathedral (enshrined with Christ’s robe) and the 6th century Jvari Monastery, which is perched on a high cliff, overlooking the stunning river confluence views of Aragvi and Mtkvari rivers. Drop off at your hotel is included.

Today, you will enjoy a refreshing drive away from Tbilisi on a Gudauri Kazbegi Tour. Packed with the most exciting experiences, this tour will head you to the picturesque town of Stepantsminda or Kazbegi where the 14th century Gergeti Trinity Church and the gorgeous views of Chkheri River, Mount Kazbek and Darial Gorge make for a marvelous stop. The tour will further take you to Ananuri Fortress Complex and Jinvali Water Reservoir. This is followed by a stop at Pasanauri – a place of unequaled natural beauty where you get to see the confluence of white and black Aragvi Rivers. Your itinerary also covers a trip to the ski resort of Gudauri. Placed at an altitude of 2,190 meters, it is one of the ultimate places to enjoy activities like skiing (December to April), horse ride, and paragliding to name a few. This is followed by a 4X4 tour that takes you to the 14th century Gergeti Trinity Church with Mount Kazbeg and its untouched beauty as its backdrop. As the tour ends, you will be transferred back to your Tbilisi accommodation or location. 

After breakfast, check out of the hotel and proceed for a full-day tour of the Kakheti wine region. Starting with a pick-up from your Tbilisi hotel or location, the first stop is at the venerated Bodbe Monastery, which enshrines the tomb of the 4th-century apostle, St. Nino. Set against the backdrop of the mighty Caucus Mountain, the whole setting is supremely lush and tranquil, complete with St. Nino’s spring, which is believed to have medicinal or healing properties.

You will next visit Sighnaghi, one of the Kakheti region’s most boundlessly charming towns. It is a place of cultural and historical significance, featuring marvelous Italian-style structures, picturesque churches, and mostly the well-preserved Sighnaghi Great Wall that dates back to the 18th century. Moreover, it is rightly called the ‘City of Love,’ thanks to its unique wedding house.

Following a scrumptious breakfast check-out from hotel, your driver and vehicle will be ready to pick you up from your hotel and drop you off at Tbilisi International Airport. You can be assured that you will reach the airport in time to complete all formalities before you board the flight.
