David Gareja Monastery & Rainbow Mountains Private Tour
At the selected time, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Tbilisi and take you through the Caucasian valleys in a jeep. We'll head 100 kilometers (62 miles) southeast of Tbilisi to the Kakheti region to visit the monastery of David Gareja.
This monastery complex carved into rock was founded by St. David Gareja in the 6th century. Located next to the Mount Gareja desert, it offers views of the surrounding arid landscapes. We will explore the complex, including its defensive walls, towers, and ancient frescoes.
During the visit, we will learn about the monastery's history and notable facts, such as the confinement of Georgian king Demetrius I here after his abdication in 1154.
Following our visit, we will hike 8 kilometers (5 miles) through the Rainbow Mountains, known for their otherworldly landscapes. On the return trip, we will stop at a traditional village for lunch, where you can sample Georgian mulled wine. After ten hours of sightseeing, we will return to Tbilisi and drop you off at your hotel.
