Uncover Georgia’s hidden industrial legacy on this unique day excursion to Chiatura and Katskhi Pillar. Journey through breathtaking mountain scenery to witness one of the country’s most remarkable landmarks — a 40-meter natural limestone monolith topped with a small hermitage, representing human resilience and solitude. Proceed to Chiatura, a fascinating Soviet-era mining town once dubbed the “city of cable cars.” Experience the original Stalin-era gondolas, delve into abandoned factories and murals, and immerse yourself in the nostalgic ambiance of Georgia’s industrial history. This private full-day tour seamlessly blends history, architecture, and photography into an unforgettable adventure beyond the typical tourist paths.
