This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Traveler’s Meeting Point, Vladimer Meskhishvili St., 14, Tbilisi 0103 Georgia
Traveler's Meeting Point - is a free space where you can meet new exciting people, play board games, listen to good music or enjoy a glass of wine.
Duration: 30 minutes
Stop At: Kapatadze Lake, Georgia
The first place where you will stop is a shop to buy snacks. Since the area doesn't have good restaurants and we do not have a lunch stop, you should get some snacks not to feel too hungry and uncomfortable.
And next, we go to a salty lake, where we have an outstanding possibility to take some nice pictures. The lake is on the way to David Gareji Lavra, and the views are astonishing for taking memorable photos.
In total, for the shop and the lake, we will have 30 minutes.
Duration: 30 minutes
Pass By: Udabno, Udabno, Kakheti Region
After the lake, we continue driving through Udabno Village, translated as a desert. The area where we will be traveling is the only semidesert Georgia has, and it's more than amazing to see how diverse Georgian nature is.
Stop At: David Gareji monastery, C9WG+WHP, Udabno, Georgia
We will start walking toward the famous Rainbow Mountains at the end of the driving. The most impressive feature of the landscape is the mineral-rich sedimentary rock, which looks like it’s been painted with brightly colored stripes. It’s possible to hike through the Rainbow Mountains, which astonish visitors with their colors. We will walk through the Rainbow Mountains, take many mesmerizing pictures, and prepare for the David Gareji Lavra historical tour.
David Gareji Monastery Complex is one of the most spiritual places in the country. You will hear the stories of the monastery, do a bit of hiking and see a Georgian soldier at the border of Georgia and Azerbaijan. It’s believed that St. David chose this isolated location because he wanted his Disciples to lead a life of holiness independent from the rest of society.
Duration: 2 hours 45 minutes
Stop At: Traveler’s Meeting Point, Vladimer Meskhishvili St., 14, Tbilisi 0103 Georgia
