Description

The tour starts at 9:00 am. The guide and driver will meet you at the meeting point (Bicycle Monument, Rose Revolution Square, Tbilisi, on the map). 

Our incredible tour starts from Mtskheta from visiting Jvari Monastery. Jvari Monastery- VI century church and monastery, located east of Mtskheta, at the mouth of the river Mtkvari and Aragvi, on the rocky mountain peak. Jvari Monastery is included in the UNESCO World Heritage List. Here there is the Robe of Jesus Christ, which had been brought from Jerusalem in I c—a true architectural masterpiece of the Early Middle Ages. Built on a hilltop, the views of Mtskheta and the Aragvi and Mtkvari Rivers are breathtaking and great for selfies! You will drive north towards the Northern Caucasus along the well-known Georgian Military Road. The first stop will be at the Ananuri complex, a former residence of Argveti Dukes. The complex features churches and towers dating back to the 16-17th centuries, beautifully overlooking the Jinvali reservoir. The buildings included in the complex are the upper and lower fortress, fence, towers, Church of the Mother of God, Church of the Deity, “Mkurnali” Church, bell tower, octagonal cell, and reservoirs; Continue our drive to see the conjunction of two small mountain rivers famous for the fact that being different in color they still keep their colors even after merging. In Passanauri village, you can have lunch and taste authentic Georgian cuisine (not included). Continue our incredible tour and now visit the Gudauri Friendship monument, also known as Gudauri Panorama- 120 KM from Tbilisi on the Georgian Military Highway connecting to Russia. The monument is vivid and colorful; however, its beauty is due to its location. Georgia-Russia Friendship monument is a circular balcony hanging off a 600-meter cliff with amazing views of the Caucasus Mountains. Our last stop and the tour's main attraction is Kazbegi (Stepantsminda) and its amazing Mount Kazbegi, where the Gergeti Trinity Church is built - located at an altitude of 2170 m. From Kazbegi, ride in 4 WD vehicles through beautiful valleys and woods, reaching the Gergeti Trinity church. In good weather, you can see one of the highest glaciers in the Caucasus – the mountain Kazbegi at 5047m. Enjoy breathtaking views, take pictures, breathe fresh air, and collect many emotions. Drive back to Tbilisi.

WholIy I was satisfied with the Sakura Travel Agency. I booked a one-day tour to Kazbegi to see a beautiful scenery. I recommend you to ask Sakura before you make a plan to travel Georgia for three reasons. 1. Kind support When I booked a tour online, I faced an issue on payment. I inquired by email and they supported me openheartedly, and the issue was solved. Sakura is eager to present Georgia’s attractiveness, so you can ask them about the country if you plan to visit there. 2. Flexible and comfort tours Since they took me to Kazbegi by car, it became more comfort than bus tours. In addition, as the tour was personalized, I was able to decide how long to spend time on each spot and the guide gave me some proposals for restaurants for lunch. 3. Hospitality Surely they will provide you detail explanations on the country’s history, culture, and the like. I learned many things that I could not know if I traveled alone. Furthermore, the driver and the guide treated me as a guest with intimacy. We had a lunch together and talked a lot. This hospitality made my trip superb. To end, I was happy to travel with Sakura. Thanks to them, I enjoyed Georgia and it became a precious memory.
