Description
Travel by Soviet-era train from Tbilisi to Gori. Discover Stalin’s Museum, explore the city’s hidden corners, street art, and fortress and enjoy a local lunch in this historic Georgian town.
Meet your guide at the railway station and step aboard a Soviet-era train — a moving time capsule rolling through the Georgian countryside. Enjoy the short, scenic ride to Gori, a town forever linked to history yet full of surprises beyond Stalin’s shadow.
Wander its streets and uncover stories carved in stone and memory: Georgia’s first theater, street art blooming on old walls, quiet memorials, and the ancient fortress watching over the city, hidden murals, proud statues and lot more.
Enter Stalin’s Museum — a place that fascinates and unsettles at once — before sharing lunch in a cozy local café. If you wish, take some time to wander freely before the same old train takes you home, its wheels singing softly of Georgia’s past.
