Tbilisi: Vintage Bus City Tour with Wine Tasting and City Sights

Your journey begins with a smooth cruise down Rustaveli Avenue, the bustling main artery of Tbilisi. As we drive along the wide boulevard, you'll enjoy perfect, unhindered views of the city's most majestic 19th-century architecture. We'll pass by the stately Parliament of Georgia, the Moorish-style National Opera Theater, and the Rustaveli National Theatre. The open roof allows for perfect photo opportunities of the grand facades and the lively street atmosphere. We visit the Dry Bridge Market, a unique flea market filled with antiques and Soviet-era treasures, then cross the modern Bridge of Peace into the atmospheric Old Town. Drive through the historic Meidan area and narrow streets full of colorful balconies before arriving at the legendary Sulfur Baths of Abanotubani — the birthplace of Tbilisi. Throughout the tour, your guide will share stories, history, and local traditions, making this a memorable journey through the culture and soul of Georgia’s capital.

Next, we transition from classic elegance to contemporary marvels as we glide down towards the Mtkvari River. We will park right near the iconic Bridge of Peace. Here, you can marvel at the bow-shaped, glass-and-steel pedestrian bridge that connects the historic district with Rike Park. The contrast of this futuristic structure against the backdrop of ancient churches is a true testament to Tbilisi's dynamic history. Wave to the pedestrians as we capture some group photos with the bridge sparkling in the background!

For our grand finale, we wind our way into the historic center, arriving at the famous Meidan Square (Vakhtang Gorgasali Square). As the cart navigates the charming cobblestone streets, you'll be surrounded by traditional Georgian houses with their famous intricately carved wooden balconies. Look up to see the imposing Narikala Fortress watching over the city, and take in the vibrant energy of the cafes, carpet shops, and nearby sulfur baths. The open cart allows you to truly feel the heartbeat of the Old Town and even hear the sounds of local street musicians as we pass by.
