Alone with Tbilisi: Private Photo Walk
About this experience
Tbilisi is photogenic all year round! We will walk through atmospheric places and capture your emotions from meeting the beautiful capital of Georgia. Between shots, you will learn both general and little-known facts about Tbilisi. I will also share life hacks with you: where to have a delicious lunch, what to see, and how to get there.
What to Expect
The photo session takes place in three locations: at a height, on the streets of the Old City, and on the water during a boat trip.
- We will choose a location for the photo shoot in the Old City, based on your convenience and location.
- For the photo shoot at an elevation, we will select one of the colorful neighborhoods. You will enjoy panoramic views of Tbilisi, and the photos will capture you against the backdrop of the main attractions:
Sololaki - the district of Tbilisi modern style. The terraces, staircases, and facades of profitable houses, where wealthy merchants lived, will serve as decorations for photos.
Left Bank of the Kura and Metekhi District. Houses with wooden balconies standing above the river seem to be carved from rocks, emphasizing unity with the landscape.
Abanotubani and the “Fig Gorge” - a picturesque place for photo shoots. The minaret of the mosque, the domes of the sulfur baths, carpet shops, and tea houses remind of the period when Tbilisi was an emirate as part of the Arab Caliphate.
- On the boat, we will sail between sheer cliffs. I will take photos against the backdrop of the Metekhi Canyon, majestic bridges, and modern futuristic buildings.
Organizational Details
- For a group of 5 to 8 people, the photo walk will last 2 hours
- You can bring props and accessories suitable for your image: flowers, books, scarves, glasses, and more. We will discuss options before our meeting.
- In the wardrobe of our photo studio, there are traditional Georgian costumes - men's, women's, and children's. For an additional fee of 15 euros (~50 GEL), you can dress up in the image of a Georgian prince or princess with all the accompanying accessories: capes, belts, daggers, and headdresses.
- 5-7 days after the walk, you will receive 20 edited photos (and the original unedited photos converted to jpg format) via the cloud storage Google Drive or Yandex Disk
