17:30 Prometheus Cave
Duration: 1 hour 15 minutes

We visit Kumistavi (Prometheus Cave) that is the most magnificent cave in Georgia. Kumistavi owes a famous Caucasian myth about Amirani for the sonorous naming of the “Cave of Prometheus.” The legend says that Amirani, like Prometheus, angered the Gods and was punished brutally. Days and nights, the eagle tormented him eating his liver; however, in contrast to the Greek giant, cruel Gods chained Amirani not to the rock but somewhere inside a massive cave. Presumably, it is in Kumistavi. Khvamli Mountain is visible from Prometheus Cave and is the place where legend says that Prometheus was chained. There are spectacular views of stalactites, stalagmites, petrified waterfalls, underground rivers, and lakes of the cave. Throughout the cave, there are colorful lights, ranging from orange, red to pink and blue. You have two options to enjoy with an impressive cave tour. You may choose a walking tour along the 1600m route or the boat ride along the underground river.

  Best time to visit

  Tbilisi is rewarding year-round, but spring and early autumn typically bring the most comfortable temperatures and thinner crowds than peak summer. Morning departures tend to be quieter and cooler; booking ahead is recommended in high season as popular experience slots in Tbilisi sell out.
