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 perfect place to start exploring the hidden charms of the so-called Georgian Sahara. Then, we'll continue 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 terrain made up of mineral-rich rocks, creating a variety of shades. We'll park and explore the area on foot and take pictures.

The next part will focus on the history of this Georgian valley. We will head to the David Gareja Monastery, a mystical place in the country. Here, we’ll explore the religious complex and see the border between Georgia and Azerbaijan.

Finally, we'll start our way back to Tbilisi, concluding the tour after seven hours of sightseeing.
