Mtskheta was a capital of the Georgian Kingdom of Iberia during the 3rd century BC - 5th century AD. Here Georgians converted to Christianity in 317 and Mtskheta remains the headquarters of the Georgian Orthodox and Apostolic Church.
• Jvari Monastery is a Georgian Orthodox monastery from the 6th century near Mtskheta (World Heritage site), Mtskheta-Mtianeti region, eastern Georgia. The name is translated as the Monastery of the Cross-. In the same way, in Jerusalem is located Georgian monastery with the same name.
• Svetitskhoveli Cathedral built in the 11th century. However, the site itself is even older dating back to the early 4th century and is surrounded by a number of legends associated primarily with the early Christian traditions. Svetitskhoveli, known as the burial place of Christ's mantle, has long been the principal Georgian church and remains one of the most venerated places of worship to this day. The church counts UNESCO world heritage sites.
• Transfer to Tbilisi
• Walking tour in the old part of Tbilisi. Our tour will start at Rike Park. Firstly, we will enjoy the fantastic panorama of the Old City on the opposite bank of the river, and walk a bit around the park. From the park, we will take the cable car up to the Narikala Fortress - the main citadel of Tbilisi for many centuries.
• Then we will go down along the narrow, cute streets, with lovely green yards, and unique Tbilisi buildings, framed with grapevines and circled with lacy balconies. Further, we will pass by the mosque- the only one in Tbilisi. 
• The beautiful walls of the mosque are on the bank of the small river, which runs sparkling and bubbling from the top of the hills straight to the Kura River. The river takes its way through the picturesque gorge. We will go up, along the gorge, and this path will bring us to the lovely waterfall, which is situated straight in the middle of the city.
• The following stop in our walking tour - Abanotubani (literally "the baths area"). It is a well-known spacious sulfur baths resort. In previous centuries, this was not just a SPA center, but a place where friends and relatives met, spent a couple of relaxing hours, and enjoyed the company of each other. 
• Along the road, we will see lovely and cozy open cafes and small restaurants, which are famous for the Caucasian hospitality, incredibly tasty cuisine and wines.
• We will go across the well-known "Bridge of Peace '', which spans the Mtkvari River. It is remarkable for its futuristic design.
• Afterwards we will visit the famous Sioni Cathedral (built in the 17th century). Earlier it served as the main Cathedral and at the same time was the residence of the Patriarch of Georgia, until the construction of Holy Trinity Church was finished in 2004.
