Private Tbilisi Walking Tour
- Narikala Fortress: Take a scenic aerial cable car ride from Rike Park over the Mtkvari River to this 4th-century citadel. You will walk along the ancient stone battlements that have guarded the city for generations and take in unmatched, 360-degree panoramic views of Tbilisi spreading out through the river valley.
The Abanotubani Sulfur Baths: Walk into the historic heart of the city's foundation myth. You鈥檒l explore a square lined with beautiful, low-slung brick domes heating underground natural sulfur springs, including the stunning, mosaic-covered Orbeliani Bathhouse that looks like a miniature Persian palace.
The Hidden Leghvtakhevi Gorge & Waterfall: Just a few steps behind the sulfur baths, follow a wooden boardwalk into a steep, shaded rocky canyon. This path leads to a roaring, 22-meter waterfall hidden right in the middle of the bustling capital city.
The Leaning Clock Tower of Gabriadze Theatre: Stop for a whimsical photo in front of a fairytale-like, intentionally crooked clock tower built by renowned puppeteer Rezo Gabriadze. If your timing is right, you will watch a mechanical angel emerge from the top to strike the bell on the hour.
Shardeni and Bambis Rigi Streets: Wind through a bustling pedestrian hub of sidewalk cafes, art galleries, wine bars, and hookah lounges. This area brings a chic, European nightlife vibe to the historic architecture of the old trading alleys.
The Peace Bridge & Rike Park: Step out of antiquity and into the future on this striking, bow-shaped pedestrian footbridge covered in thousands of LED lights. It serves as a symbolic walkway connecting the historic old city with modern, 21st-century Tbilisi.
Faiths of the Silk Road: Walk past a striking demonstration of religious harmony packed into one square kilometer. You will see Sioni Cathedral, the Anchiskhati Basilica (Tbilisi's oldest surviving church), the Grand Synagogue, and a historic mosque where Sunni and Shia Muslims have long prayed side by side.
Traditional Bakery & Wine Tastings: Duck into a traditional underground bakery (Tone) to watch fresh, canoe-shaped Shoti bread slapped directly onto the clay oven walls, and visit a historic cellar to sample natural amber wines made using the ancient Qvevri method.
Bonus Add-on: The Chronicles of Georgia: For an extended version of the tour, a short drive out to the Tbilisi Sea brings you to Georgia's version of Stonehenge. This massive, monumental bronze and stone pillar complex depicts kings, heroes, and biblical scenes on a grand scale.
