Georgia Tours & Travel Guide

Georgia Attractions & Landmarks Guide

Hidden from most tourist itineraries, the Republic of Georgia is an alluring mix of diverse landscapes, a unique language, and rich culture. From ancient religious monuments to colorful food markets, Georgia has much to offer but without the typical tourist crowds. Along with neighboring countries Armenia and Azerbaijan, Georgia is often overlooked as a travel destination. However, the mystery surrounding this former Soviet republic is exactly why travelers should visit. Georgia offers a truly unique travel experience at a relatively inexpensive price point – but go now, before this gem is discovered by the masses.

Touring Tbilisi in Georgia

Although small compared to other capital cities, Tbilisi is Georgia’s urban capital. It bears some resemblance to other capitals in Eastern Europe, but it is noticeably smaller and less discovered. The Old Town offers winding cobblestone streets and enough European charm to satisfy most visitors.

Tbilisi also offers unique attractions including an aerial tramway to Nariqala Fortress, a funicular that offers views of the city, the Bridge of Peace with its unique architecture, and the main street – Rustaveli – home to churches, museums, and the heartbeat of the city.

Beyond Tbilisi

While Tbilisi may be Georgia’s charming urban center, many of the country’s greatest attractions are beyond the city limits. Davit Gareja is an easy day trip from Tbilisi that offers rich history, religious artifacts, and great hiking opportunities. Explore ancient cave monasteries with frescoes dating back many centuries, or hike along an inconspicuous metal rail that delineates the border between Georgia and Azerbaijan.

Although a longer day trip from Tbilisi, Stepantsminda is a small town just a few kilometers south of the Georgia-Russia border. It is home to the famed Tsminda Sameba Church which is perched atop a 2,200 meter mountain. Several hiking paths lead adventurers to the top for incredible views of the Caucasus Mountains.

Just west of Tbilisi is the town of Gori, the birthplace of infamous Soviet leader Joseph Stalin and also one of the battlegrounds of the Russo Georgian War in 2008. Visitors to Gori should experience the Stalin museum which is not a tribute to the fallen leader but instead a fairly objective account of the leader’s life and legacy. Nearby lies the remains of Uplistsikhe, an ancient cave city that once housed an entire community in the hillside.

For more mountain fun, head west to Svaneti for breathtaking views and countless outdoor opportunities. After grueling hikes and nonstop sightseeing, relax in the beach resort town of Katumi along the Black Sea. If you’re ready for more adventure, return to Tbilisi and take the overnight train to the neighboring capitals of Baku (Azerbaijan) or Yerevan (Armenia).
