1 / 65 Hour Tbilisi Private City Tour
About this activity
Explore Tbilisi's best landmarks and hidden corners in a single 5-hour private outing, led by a knowledgeable local who doubles as your friend rather than a formal guide. This flexible, door-to-door tour covers iconic spots like Mtatsminda Park and Sameba Cathedral alongside lesser-known gems you'd struggle to discover alone.
We start this private tour at any comfortable time for you from your living place and we take you to the most popular places such as Mtatsminda park, Sameba Holy Trinity church, Turtle Lake, Museum of Ethnography, and Fabrika. Also, we show you some hidden places, which you could not find without the local’s help. You don’t have any guide today, you have a local friend, who knows all about his city.
Highlights
- ✓Mtatsminda Park with panoramic city views and cable car access

Insider tips
- ★Start early morning or late afternoon to avoid crowds at major sites and enjoy golden-hour photography at Mtatsminda
- ★Ask your local guide about nearby family-run restaurants and cafés in residential areas—they're cheaper and more authentic than tourist zones
- ★Wear comfortable walking shoes; you'll navigate cobblestone streets and parks, plus there's climbing involved at some viewpoints
Good to know
