Description
I'm offering local, private tour in two Georgian cities, Tbilisi and Mtskheta. My bucket includes visiting the oldest sites of one of the oldest civilizations on the planet. The tour starts from the the ancient churches and the walls of Tbilisi and continues in the very first capital, Mtskheta which is called the 2nd Jerusalem because of its connection with the beginning of Christianity in Georgia and the preservation of the Robe of Jesus Christ.
My passion for history, medieval times, and affection for the traditional behavior of the Georgian people will make our walk tour very interesting.
• Tbilisi walking tour with experienced historian;
• Visit the most famous and ancient spots in the Old Town;
• Transfer from Tbilisi to Mtskheta Old Town;
• Visit the most iconic Georgian cultural sites, Svetitskhoveli Cathedral and Jvari Monastery;
• Relax and take pictures in the beautiful view of the place where the Mtkvari & Aragvi rivers meet.
• Wine ice cream in Mtskheta is included :)

Ideal choice for those staying in Tbilisi
The tour was exceptionally well-organized, covering all the key highlights of Tbilisi and Mtskheta. The schedule was perfectly balanced, allowing ample time to explore each site without feeling rushed. I discovered fascinating places and received insightful information that I wouldn't have easily found in guidebooks.
The guide was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate, bringing the history and culture of these beautiful cities to life. Everything ran smoothly from start to finish.
Overall, this tour exceeded my expectations, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking to delve deeper into the rich heritage of Georgia.

Highly informative and simply amazing walking tour in Tbilisi/Mtskheta
I have been on the walking tour with Giorgi and I absolutely enjoyed it! If you have an interest in history and politics (which Georgia obviously has a lot to offer), and you want to dig a bit deeper, you should absolutely go on this tour! I would definitely do it again and I hope to be back one day. :)
Operator response
Thank you so much, Stephy. Looking forward to meet again!
