Religious Тour to Georgia is a journey of faith and prayer which will inspire you with memories for a lifetime.

Day 1 - Arrival

Day 2 - Tbilisi City Tour

Tbilisi - Tsminda Sameba - Sioni

Religious tour through Georgia starts with the city tour around Tbilisi, where Orthodox churches, Great Synagogue and Jumah Mosque are situated close to each other. First, we visit Tsminda Sameba Cathedral – the main cathedral of the Georgian Orthodox Church and the highest temple in Georgia. Then we have a trip to the historical district of Metekhi to explore the Catholic Church of Ascension of the Virgin Mary built in the XIII century. We reach the fortress Narikala by the cable car and enjoy a breathtaking panoramic view. Our next spiritual sight is the only mosque still in use in Tbilisi - Jumah Mosque, where Sunni and Shia Muslims pray side by side. We continue to Sioni Cathedral named after Mount Zion in Jerusalem. The cathedral keeps the Grapevine cross of St.Nino, which is the major symbol of Georgian Orthodox Church. Our next stop is Anchiskhati Church, the oldest surviving church in Tbilisi, built in the VI century. Tour leads us to St Peter and Paul Catholic Church, which was built in the XIX century. Armenian Norashen Holy Mother of God Church, which was built in XV century, is our last religious place to visit.

Antonio & Rebecca

Thank you for organizing our trip to Georgia. We booked the tour with so many churches and monasteries, and it was amazing! During the trip, you can feel how deep run the roots of the faith in Georgia and the strong correlation between strength of religion and prospering democracy. This journey was the perfect combination of spiritual, cultural and historical sights of Georgia.

Thank you once again for a great job, Rima.

Looking for the next trip with MyGeo!

It turns out 1 week is enough to see almost all churches in Georgia due to our perfect planned and organized schedule. Our tour coordinator Eduard was perfect. His English is very advanced. Our guide was amazing. He was also a driver, he drove very safely, a bit fast. Overall we liked our trip. And we will recommend you to our friends.

Thanks, MyGeo for this unforgettable 1 week.

Hello,

Well, I decided to share with you our trip experience. First of all, I want to thank you for a skilled guide. He did his best and made for our awesome city tours. We have seen Tbilisi from different views as tourists and as native inhabitants. He showed us the best shopping areas and a flea market, cosy restaurants and bars. Dancing show in Kalanda was just wow! We bought souvenirs for our families and friends. Wine samplings both in Tbilisi and Kakheti was fantastic, especially wine museum left the incredible impression.

I am missing these wonderful Georgian days!

Thank you for the extremely good time we have spent!
