About this experience
We will explore the colorful areas of Sololaki and Mtatsminda, famous for their majestic buildings, beautiful doors, cozy courtyards, and hidden underground passages. We'll visit a courtyard where ancient artifacts were found, usually inaccessible to most.
We'll visit an Old City quarter and see an ancient oven for baking traditional Georgian bread. We'll watch the dough being prepared and baked in the tandoor, and then taste the hot, crispy bread.
We'll enjoy a wine tasting of local wines made from the best Georgian grapes, appreciating the rich flavors and learning about the art of winemaking in Georgia.
You will be immersed in historical events through a unique interactive format. We will use an album containing old photos, elements of a quest and quiz, as well as a meditative approach to conversation, when a friendly discussion is created between the guide and the excursionist, not a lecture-monologue.
