n one day you will have time to visit two amazing places in our region: Uplistsikhe, without which it is difficult to imagine the pre-Christian, ancient world of Georgia, and Mtskheta, without which it is impossible to understand the era of early Christianity and the Middle Ages. When viewing cities, you will visually trace the path that Georgia has gone from the time of the early Bronze Age to the adoption of Christianity.
Our walk begins A. Pushkin, M. Lermontov, P. Tchaikovsky, A. Dumas-father, L. Tolstoy and many others. Turning off the path, you will pass through the places where the events described by Lermontov in the famous poem “Mtsyri” developed, and go up to the Jvari temple of the VI century - from here you will see an enchanting view of Mtskheta: “... where the merging noise, hugging, as if two sisters , the jets of Aragva and the Kura ... "
Temples of Mtskheta You will visit Svetitskhoveli Cathedral (Pillar of Life-Giving) - the patriarchal cathedral of the Georgian Orthodox Church. Get acquainted with its history and significant events of the past.

Pagan past in the caves of Uplistsikhe A short road to the northwest - and you will find yourself in a cave city of the end of II - the beginning of the first millennium BC. e. I studied a lot of notes about this unusual place, and I will tell you all the most interesting. Exploring the stone labyrinths of living and utility rooms, you will imagine the life of the pagans and their cult rites. You will learn about the trade of Uplistsikhe with the ancient states of Urartu and Media, about its heyday and decline. It also offers wonderful panoramas of the Kura Valley.

We had lunch at a restaurant with delicious local dishes! The tour was very informative and rich! Thank you, Paata!

We were recently on a tour with Paat's guide - and it was a real journey through the eras. The route is structured so that you literally go from antiquity through the Middle Ages and gradually find yourself in the realities of the Soviet past. It's really cool how Paata connects different historical periods into one coherent story - without dry facts, but with living details, legends and unexpected twists. Separately, I would like to note that the tour took place in a mixed group, and Paata led it equally easily and interestingly in both languages - Russian and English - without leaving anyone behind. Travelled by comfortable minibus for about 15 people, which made the trip convenient and allowed to see more places without rush. We visited Jwari, Gori, Uplistsikhe and Mtskheta - and thanks to Paata's stories, these places are revealed as a single historical line, where each era logically flows to the next. Particularly liked that the tour is not overloaded with dates, but more about understanding context and feeling time - history really comes alive. Paata is a charismatic and attentive guide who can adjust to the interests of the group and answers any questions. Definitely one of those excursions, after which you take a different look at the history of the region. I recommend it!
