Day 1 — Tbilisi City Tour (3-hour guided excursion)

• Abanotubani — Tbilisi's world-famous sulfur bath district, carved into the hillside and steaming with history

• Anchiskhati Church — the oldest surviving building in Tbilisi, dating to the 5th century

Day 2 — Vardzia, Rabati Fortress & Borjomi (07:00 – 22:00)

An epic journey into southern Georgia — through lush river valleys to some of the country's most dramatic medieval landmarks and a world-renowned mineral water resort.

• Vardzia Cave Monastery — Georgia's most awe-inspiring archaeological site, a vast underground city founded in the 12th century by Queen Tamar. At its peak it could house 20,000 people across 13 floors and 600+ rooms, complete with churches, libraries, wine cellars, tunnels, and a functioning water system. An absolute must-see on any Georgia tour.

• Rabati Fortress, Akhaltsikhe — Georgia's largest fortress, originally founded in the 9th century. Inside its walls you'll find a royal palace, medieval towers, fountains, inner courtyards, a labyrinth garden, and a fascinating blend of Georgian, Ottoman, and European architectural styles.

• Borjomi — one of the most beloved resort towns in the Caucasus, famous worldwide for its natural mineral springs. Walk through its elegant 19th-century streets along the Mtkvari River, taste Borjomi mineral water directly from the source, and enjoy the peaceful forested surroundings that have attracted visitors for centuries.

Day 3 — Mtskheta, Jvari & Samtavro + Wine Tasting (12:00 – 16:30)

A half-day excursion to Mtskheta — the ancient spiritual capital of Georgia and a UNESCO World Heritage Site — followed by an evening wine tasting in Tbilisi.

• Jvari Monastery (6th century) — one of the oldest and most sacred churches in Georgia, perched on a hilltop above the confluence of the Mtkvari and Aragvi rivers. This is the site where Saint Nino planted a cross to bring Christianity to Georgia. A UNESCO World Heritage Site with spectacular panoramic views.

• Svetitskhoveli Cathedral, Mtskheta — Georgia's most important cathedral, believed to house the burial robe of Christ and relics of Saint Andrew the Apostle. A towering masterpiece of medieval Georgian architecture and the country's most significant place of worship.

• Samtavro Monastery (4th century) — a peaceful and historically rich monastery in the heart of Mtskheta, home to the tombs of Georgian kings and saints, and closely linked to the legacy of Saint Nino and Saint Shushanik.

• Wine & Chacha Tasting, Tbilisi — end the day in a traditional Tbilisi wine cellar, where an expert guide will introduce you to Georgia's unique wine micro-zones, grape varieties, and ancient winemaking traditions. Sample a selection of Georgian wines and the legendary chacha spirit.

Day 4 — Martvili Canyon & Prometheus Cave (07:00 – 22:00)

A full day exploring western Georgia's greatest natural attractions — an underground cave system of fairy-tale proportions and a spectacular river canyon.

• Prometheus Cave — the largest cave in Georgia and one of the most impressive natural wonders in the entire Caucasus. Journey through a magical underground landscape of stalactites, stalagmites, underground waterfalls, subterranean lakes, and flowing rivers, all illuminated with vivid multicolored lighting that gives the cave an almost mythical atmosphere. A top-rated attraction for visitors to Georgia.

• Martvili Canyon — a breathtaking canyon carved by the Abasha River near the town of Martvili. Walk the cliffside trails for dramatic views from above, then take a boat ride along the turquoise river flowing through the canyon floor — a rare double experience that makes this one of Georgia's most unique natural destinations.

Day 5 — Shopping Day at Tbilisi's Largest City Mall (6 hours, transfers included)

A relaxed day for personal time, shopping, and souvenir hunting. Transfer to and from Tbilisi's largest shopping mall — perfect for picking up Georgian wine, traditional crafts, jewellery, local sweets, and gifts to take home.

A full day immersed in Kakheti — the birthplace of wine and Georgia's most beloved region for culture, food, and scenery.

• Manavi Village — your first taste of authentic Kakhetian hospitality. Sample homemade Georgian wine, chacha, and traditional snacks, and make your own churchkhela (a traditional walnut-and-grape sweet) with your own hands — a hands-on experience you'll remember long after leaving Georgia.

• Badiauri Village — watch traditional Georgian "Mother's Bread" being baked in a clay oven (tone), and taste a spread of famous local cheeses made according to centuries-old recipes.

• Signagi — "The City of Love" — Kakheti's most charming town, perched on a hilltop with sweeping views of the Alazani Valley. Its 17th-century fortress walls, Italian-style architecture, and romantic atmosphere make it one of the most visited destinations in Georgia.

• Bodbe Monastery — the serene resting place of Saint Nino, the 4th-century missionary who converted Georgia to Christianity. Set in beautifully landscaped gardens with views across the valley.
