Beautiful views - It was opened in 1958 and operated until 1990 with Soviet-era machinery. It was completely rebuilt a year ago, after 34 of abando. Beautiful lower station with two overlapping ramps for access. The city views fantastic.

Visiting Mtatsimnda View Point - We had a wonderful time visiting the Mtatsminda viewpoint, park, and café by taking the cable car. Nika and George were incredibly helpful; they were friendly and patient, sharing a wealth of information about the city's culture, cuisine, and dining options. They were also kind enough to take our pictures and share them with us at the end of the trip. I highly recommend taking this tour with these two lovely tour leaders so you can truly enjoy your experience.

❌ Misleading & Disappointing Tour - ❌ Misleading & Disappointing Tour We were really looking forward to this trip, which we had booked through Viator before starting our travels to Georgia. The inclusions were clearly mentioned in the title itself, which gave us confidence in booking. Unfortunately, what followed was one of the most disappointing tour experiences we’ve ever had. At the meeting point, our guide simply handed us a card preloaded with some cash for the two-way cable car ride and told us that this was all that was included. After that, we were left completely on our own. This was shocking, as the booking had clearly mentioned three tastings of lemonade among the inclusions, yet the guide seemed clueless. When we raised this, he made some half-hearted checks with his company but couldn’t resolve it. We then tried contacting the number mentioned on our booking multiple times. Sadly, the lady who answered kept repeating the same line—that our booking only included the cable car ride—and offered no real help. Despite our best efforts to explain, she refused to acknowledge the issue. To make matters worse, we asked about visiting their office to sort things out but were told there was no office to go to. As avid travellers who frequently book tours worldwide, this was the first time we felt truly cheated. Why would anyone pay INR 9,081 simply to receive a prepaid card for a cable car ride, which we could have easily arranged ourselves at a fraction of the cost? If the company had no intention of providing the additional inclusions, they should not have advertised them in the first place. The false claims felt dishonest and misleading, and the whole experience left us frustrated and exasperated. The truth is: there is no tour required for Mtatsminda Park. It’s easy to enjoy on your own without paying extra to a company. Getting there itself is part of the fun—you can either take the cable car or the funicular, which is actually one of the main attractions, offering beautiful views as you ride up or down. We eventually went on to explore Mtatsminda Park ourselves using the card. The park is set atop a mountain with stunning views and is a pleasant place to relax with family or friends. Most of the rides are for children, though a few—like the giant wheel, roller coaster, and space-shot ride—are suitable for adults. The park does require a fair amount of walking on inclines, which can be challenging for older visitors. Facilities like the WC are located at one end, so it’s best to check the map upon entering. In summary: the park is worth visiting, especially if you have kids and also for adults who like a short break away from the city. I strongly recommend cross-checking inclusions prior to booking to avoid the misleading advertisement of inclusions. The false claims felt dishonest and misleading, and the whole experience left us frustrated and exasperated. Avoid booking this tour through this local company. Their misleading inclusions, lack of accountability, and false advertising spoiled what should have been a smooth experience. In fact, Viator should not use this particular tour offered by Budget Friendly Tours, as it is damaging Viator’s reputation by cheating travellers.
