Audio Tour of Old Tbilisi and Sololaki Districts
About this experience
The domes of the Sulfur Baths and atmospheric grand entrances, ancient temples and modern parks, inspiring views from the Narikala Fortress, and even a gorge with a waterfall - all of this will unfold before you as a vibrant canvas of Tbilisi's mosaic. At your own comfortable pace, you will discover the history, architecture, and legends of the city. Your guide will be the application pre-installed on your smartphone.
What to Expect
🔹Walk on the roofs of the famous Sulfur Baths, learn interesting facts from their past and the rules of visiting, and find out why they need domes and how Pushkin evaluated his visit here.
🔹Stroll through a real mountain gorge in the heart of the city and visit the Legvtakhevi waterfall.
🔹Climb to the ancient Narikala Fortress. Hear about the event that influenced the current appearance of the citadel. And take in the colorful panoramas of Tbilisi.
🔹In the ancient streets of the Sololaki district, explore the authentic architecture of the houses and appreciate the beauty of their unique entrances.
🔹At the Writers' House of Georgia, you will discover a life hack on how to enter the courtyard and visit the most beautiful entrance, decorated with marble and tiles.
🔹On the iconic Freedom Square, learn about the history of the construction and development of Tbilisi.
🔹Additionally, you will visit the modern Rike Park and see the Bridge of Peace - as the locals call it and what architects compare the structure to, will also be covered in the audio tour.
🔹And at the end, you will ascend to the city's main sanctuary - the Holy Trinity Cathedral.
The itinerary also includes: the Mother of Georgia monument, Upper Betlemi Church, Tatischev and Siemens houses, Gudiashvili Square, the sculpture "First Rain," Norashen Church, Sioni Cathedral, and the Presidential Palace.
🍷 We want to honestly warn you. Completing the route on the first try is not an easy task. This is because you will be continuously distracted by tantalizing aromas from cafes and invited by local residents. And that's not to mention the temptation to taste another variety of wine. Don't hold back! You are in Tbilisi - that's the idea. And you can always pause the audio tour and come back to it later ;)

Great option for those who value freedom in terms of time and excursion schedule. I listened to it over two days. There's quite a lot of material, in my opinion, for just one day.
