Soul and Antiquity of Tbilisi: Interactive Group Tour
About this experience
With us, this warm city will open up to attentive travelers looking for an overview and at the same time unusual tour. You will stroll through the heart of Tbilisi, see the main sights, and peek into cozy dusty courtyards. Take pictures of delicate balconies, a waterfall, and the famous Sulfur Baths. Learn about the city through stories about its residents, local traditions, and flavors.
What to expect
Interactive format: learn and remember
The beginning of the tour will be traditional - with the guide's stories about the city, its history (without dates and names of kings that are never remembered), and residents of different years. Listen carefully so as not to miss the answers to future questions and riddles that gradually weave into the tour. This format has been tested by us: it turns out to be both informative and fun!
What Tbilisi lived and lives by
In 3 hours, you will not only see the beauty and antiquity of the city but also feel its soul. A serious statement, isn't it? This will be helped by real stories and legends from the lives of Tbilisians - artists, architects, poets, composers, actors, and directors. Stories about artisans and winemakers. By the way, you will discover why Georgians love wine so much and what Georgian toponyms mean. You will also chat with artists and designers in their workshops.
Best route for a first date with Tbilisi
You will fully enjoy the splendor of tourist streets - and the authenticity of courtyards. You will often encounter old carved balconies and even find a real waterfall. Depending on the season, you will taste delicious wine ice cream or mulled wine. We will end the walk in a cozy 17th-century wine cellar, where you can taste the famous Georgian wine.

Thank you, Lora, for the tour! It turned out to be individual for us, but despite the fact that there were only two of us, the tour took place. It was our first time in Tbilisi, and our acquaintance with the city began with this tour, which was interesting and informative.

Excellent tour. Pleasant communication with the guide, interesting stories. We saw the whole old town. Perfect for a first acquaintance. The weather was a bit disappointing, it was windy, but it's not the organizer's fault. Don't forget to dress according to the weather.
