Full description
Explore the key historical sites of central Georgia, focusing on three different eras: the pagan period, the Christian period, and the Soviet period. Join your guide and a small group to witness the history of Georgia unfold on this full-day tour from Tbilisi.   After pickup from your hotel, your first stop will be the cave town of Uplistsikhe. Its caves and tunnels create a marvelous structure of natural architecture which still holds remnants of its ancient pagan culture.   Then, visit the nearby town of Gori and see the pompous Soviet Museum dedicated to Joseph Stalin, who was born here. After Gori, you’ll drive 1 hour to Mtskheta, the old capital of Georgia, where the country’s conversion to Christianity started in the 4th century. See the Svetiskhoveli cathedral and the monastery of Jvari, built on a high hill above the town.   Finally, see the Georgian Stonehenge, an impressive monument of Georgian history off the beaten path. Return to Tbilisi for drop off at your hotel.

Genial. Uplistsikhe enorme, más de lo que uno se puede imaginar viendo las fotos. Muy agradable el paseo entre las cuevas. La catedral de Mtskheta muy interesante, aunque en un parque temático. Todas las visitas del día con Saba, que era un encanto y ameno, merecieron la pena.

Perfekter Tagesausflug von Tiflis aus. Zezva war ein wunderbarer Reiseleiter, verfügt über ein umfangreiches Wissen und hat uns sein Land auf sehr angenehme und entspannte Weise näher gebracht. Obwohl der Tag vollgepackt war, hatten wir nicht das Gefühl, von Ort zu Ort zu hetzen, sondern konnten alle Stopps genießen. Sehr empfehlenswert!!!
