David Gareja Monastery & Rainbow Mountains Tour

At the indicated time, we'll meet at the Traveller's Meeting Point in Tbilisi to start our tour to David Gareja Monastery and the Rainbow Mountains.

We'll drive through the Gareja valley to reach the salt lake, a starting point for exploring the Georgian Sahara. Next, we will pass through Udabno Village, an intriguing abandoned village amidst arid landscapes.

Here, we will first glimpse the Rainbow Mountains, known for their unique terrain of mineral-rich rocks that create various shades. We will park and explore the area on foot, taking photographs.

Our excursion will continue with a focus on the history of this Georgian valley, as we head to the David Gareja Monastery, a mystical site in the region. This visit will include exploring the religious complex and viewing the border between Georgia and Azerbaijan, historically significant.

Finally, we'll return to Tbilisi, concluding the tour after seven hours of sightseeing.
