What you can expect

Discover Mtatsminda from its very beginnings — through the ancient monastery and the historic cemetery that guard the secrets of Tbilisi’s past. Start with a gentle walk up this holy mountain, where the atmosphere slowly transforms and the city skyline opens beneath your feet.

After exploring its 6th-century spiritual heritage, continue your journey by riding the iconic Funicular to reach the very top of the mountain. Throughout the tour, your knowledgeable local guide will uncover not only the cultural and historical layers of Mtatsminda, but also its mystical legends and lesser-known criminal stories that shaped this place into something truly unique.

Wander among charming attractions surrounded by forest, breathe the fresh mountain air while still being in the heart of Tbilisi, and enjoy plenty of amazing photo-stop moments along the way.

You can add pickup, drop-off, or both during booking if needed.
