• Jvari Church - Our tour begins at the Jvari Monastery, an ancient temple dating back to the 6th century, located near the historic capital of Mtskheta. Perched atop a high mountain, it offers stunning views of the surrounding area, where the turbulent waters of the Aragvi and Kura rivers meet. The temple draws thousands of tourists due to its architectural beauty, strategic location, and historical significance. The name of the church translates from Georgian as “the cross,” and it has a rich history that we will share with you during the visit.
• Mtskheta - Our next stop is Mtskheta, the ancient capital of Georgia and a museum city that, like the Jvari Monastery, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Inhabited for over 2500 years, it was once the capital of the early Kingdom of Iberia. This historic town is home to many ancient monuments, including the Pompey Bridge, a stone bridge over the Kura River built around 65 BC during the time of Pompey the Great, Bebris Castle from the 1st century, and the Svetitskhoveli Cathedral, one of the most sacred places in Georgia where Christ’s robe is said to be buried.
• Uplistsiche Cave Town - Our journey continues to Uplistsikhe, the world’s oldest historical site, known as the “Fortress of God.” This 3000-year-old cave city, carved into the rock, played a crucial role in Georgia’s history. Its uniqueness lies in its structure, which has preserved architectural and religious buildings spanning several millennia. Today, 150 caves remain, some of which we will explore during our tour. Highlights include a cave tunnel, an ancient sun temple, the royal cave of King Tamara, a winery, a 6th-century church, a library, and an ancient pharmacy.
• Gori - Our final stop is the city of Gori, the hometown of the famous Georgian leader of the Soviet Union, Joseph Stalin. Here, you can visit the Stalin House-Museum to learn about his life, see his office and personal items, including his pipe, cigars, and telephone, as well as the house where he was born and his railway cabin.
