David Gareja Monastery & Rainbow Mountains Tour

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

We'll drive through the beautiful Gareja valley until we reach the salt lake, a starting point to explore the hidden charms of the Georgian Sahara. Then, we'll continue our journey passing through Udabno Village, an abandoned village in the arid landscapes.

From here, we'll get our first glimpse of the Rainbow Mountains. As we approach them, we'll admire the unique terrain of mineral-rich rocks, creating a variety of shades. We'll park the vehicle and explore the area on foot and take pictures.

The next part of the excursion will focus on the history of this Georgian valley. We'll proceed to the David Gareja Monastery, one of the mystical places in the country. In addition to exploring the religious complex, we'll see the border between Georgia and Azerbaijan, a historically significant area.
