This after-dark cultural experience reveals a different side of Tbilisi, when the city slows down and its hidden character begins to emerge. Designed for travellers who want more than traditional sightseeing, the journey focuses on atmosphere, local rituals, and authentic flavours discovered through movement and storytelling.
The experience begins in central Tbilisi near Freedom Square, where the host introduces the evening’s route and the rhythm of the city after sunset. From there, the walk follows the historic Leselidze area before turning into quiet courtyards and lesser-known alleyways that reflect centuries of trade, craftsmanship, and everyday urban life.
A curated tasting stop near the old caravanserai district offers an introduction to Georgian hospitality traditions. Guests sample local wine, chacha, and brandy in a relaxed setting, learning how these drinks connect to culture rather than simply consumption. The experience also includes a visit to a local bakery to enjoy freshly prepared traditional lobiani or khachapuri, adding a warm culinary highlight to the evening.
Continuing through the Old Town, the route passes narrow streets, wooden balconies, and softly illuminated facades. A tucked-away waterfall hidden between historic buildings becomes one of the evening’s quiet discoveries. As the walk progresses towards Rike Park, guests enjoy views of the Vakhtang Gorgasali monument and the illuminated Peace Bridge reflecting over the river.
The experience concludes near the riverfront. Guests who wish to extend the evening may choose an optional boat ride, while others may end the tour here. This after-dark journey is ideal for travellers seeking hidden corners, authentic tastes, and a deeper connection to Tbilisi beyond the usual daytime routes
