Begin your small-group journey from Tbilisi and travel toward Mtskheta, one of Georgia’s oldest and most historically important cities. Your first stop is Jvari Monastery, dramatically positioned above the confluence of the Mtkvari and Aragvi rivers. Take time to enjoy the panoramic views and capture photographs before continuing into historic Mtskheta.
Explore Mtskheta and visit the magnificent Svetitskhoveli Cathedral, one of Georgia’s most significant religious and cultural landmarks. Walk through the historic surroundings and continue to Samtavro Monastery, discovering the traditions and stories that shaped this ancient center of Georgian Christianity. With a small group, you will have more time to ask questions, hear local stories, and explore at a comfortable pace.
Continue to Gori, where the atmosphere changes from ancient religious heritage to a fascinating chapter of modern Georgian history. Enjoy a walking tour through central Gori, taking in the local streets and atmosphere before visiting Gori Fortress. Positioned above the city, the fortress provides beautiful views over Gori and the surrounding landscape.
Next, visit the Stalin Museum to discover Stalin’s connection with Gori and learn about the historical period surrounding his life and political legacy. Your guide will provide context and explain the significance of the museum as you explore its exhibits.
From Gori, continue to Uplistsikhe, an extraordinary ancient rock-hewn settlement carved directly into the cliffs. Walk through its tunnels, chambers, streets, halls, and carved spaces while learning about the settlement’s history and its importance along ancient trade and cultural routes.
For guests who want to make the experience even more interactive, an optional Georgian cooking class can be arranged in the Uplistsikhe area. Take part in preparing traditional Georgian dishes, learn local cooking techniques, and enjoy the experience of creating food yourself. The optional experience can be combined with a homemade Georgian lunch, allowing you to taste authentic local dishes in a relaxed setting.
Throughout the day, your local guide will connect Georgia’s ancient Christian heritage, medieval architecture, Gori’s modern history, and the country’s living culinary traditions. The small-group format creates a more personal experience with more interaction, easier movement between locations, and time to enjoy the journey rather than simply checking sights off a list.
This experience combines major historical landmarks with walking, exploration, local storytelling, and an optional hands-on culinary experience, offering a richer and more personal way to discover Mtskheta, Gori, and Uplistsikhe.
