- Tsminda Sameba Cathedral - At 10:00 am, the guide will meet guests at their hotel and drive to the Holy Trinity Sameba Cathedral, the principal Georgian Christian Orthodox cathedral. It is the largest religious structure in Georgia and the South Caucasus region, and ranks among the world’s largest Orthodox churches. Constructed between 1995 and 2004, it symbolizes the Georgian national and spiritual revival.
- Metekhi Cathedral - Historical records indicate that in the 5th century, King Vakhtang Gorgasali built the first church and fort of Tbilisi here, which also served as the royal residence. The initial church was symbolically similar to the church on Virgin Mary’s tomb in the Gethsemane garden in Jerusalem.
- Narikala Fortress - The next destination is Narikala Fortress, where visitors will take a cable car to the fortress to admire its remarkable architecture and historical significance. According to history, the structure was established in the 4th century as a Sasanian citadel named Shuris-tsikhe (“Invidious Fort”). It was significantly expanded by the Umayyads in the 7th century and later by King David the Builder (1089–1125). The Mongols renamed it “Narin Qala” (“Little Fortress”). Most of the existing fortifications date from the 16th and 17th centuries. In 1827, parts of the fortress were damaged by an earthquake and demolished. Guests can explore the castle grounds. From Narikala Fortress, two contrasting views are visible: a bustling city on one side and a serene forest, known as the Botanical Garden, on the other.
- Abanotubani - From Narikala Fortress, the tour continues with a walk down to Abanotubani. Legend has it that this area was the reason for Tbilisi’s founding in the 5th century AD. Sulfur water naturally flows from the ground in Abanotubani, supplying about 3,000,000 liters of water daily with an average temperature of 47 °C.
In the heart of the capital, visitors can enjoy the beauty of Leghvtakhevi Waterfall.
