Description

Discover the ancient cave city of Vardzia, the historic Khertvisi Fortress, the restored Rabati Fortress, and the spa town of Borjomi on a day trip from Tbilisi.
Begin your journey early in the morning from Tbilisi. Leave the city behind and head into the picturesque regions of southern Georgia, passing mountains, gorges, and tranquil villages.

Make your first stop at Vardzia, a unique cave city carved directly into the rock in the 12th century during the reign of Queen Tamar. Explore the narrow tunnels and staircases, and feel the atmosphere of medieval life. Admire the main church, with its ancient frescoes and a preserved image of Queen Tamar herself. Take in breathtaking views of the Kura River valley from the terraces.

Continue to Khertvisi Fortress, one of the oldest in the country, strategically located at the confluence of two rivers. Its mighty walls and towers rise above the gorge, creating a truly atmospheric landscape. Stop here for photos and a brief introduction to Georgia's ancient defensive architecture.

Next, visit Rabati Fortress in the town of Akhaltsikhe. Unlike Khertvisi, Rabati is a completely restored complex that blends different eras and cultures. See a castle, a mosque, a museum, towers, and well-kept courtyards. A walk through Rabati feels like a journey through different historical periods: Georgian, Ottoman, and European.

Conclude your tour in Borjomi, a renowned spa resort famous for its mineral water. In the central park, sample the water straight from the spring, stroll through green alleys, ride the cable car, and enjoy the fresh mountain air. After a busy day, it's the perfect place to unwind.
