Itinerary
At 08:30, our guide meets you in front of Avlabari Metro Station with our company’s branded flag. He/she will show you where our office is. After you complete the check-in procedure, you will wait a few minutes in our office until your tour starts.
Badiauri village is where you can visit a local bakery and taste delicious Georgian bread and cheese.
The second stop is Bodbe Convent. According to the legend, it was built at the burial place of Saint Nino—a Saint for Georgians who converted their religion to Christianity. The site is very spiritual and has impressive views for taking beautiful pictures.
Then go to Sighnaghi, known as "The City of Love." You will have a walking tour in Sighnaghin and discover " The Great Wall of Georgia." After the walking tour, you can join lunch with a beautiful view of Alazani Valley and try traditional Georgian food.
The fourth site of the day is a local family winery. At this stage, you will meet a local family who traditionally makes wine using Qvevri - giant clay jars buried underground. You'll get to sample three of their best wines - Rkatsiteli, Saperavi, and Manavi Mtsvane.
The last place to visit during the day is KTW Winery, one of the biggest wine producer in the whole country. You have a tour of the winery, wine tasting for five different wines - and even try Chacha, a potent grape vodka.
