Begin your day with a comfortable morning departure from Tbilisi, heading south toward the Kvemo Kartli region. The drive takes approximately 1.5 to 2 hours, passing through scenic countryside, traditional villages, and rolling hills, gradually transitioning into more rugged and dramatic terrain.
Upon arrival at Samshvilde, guests will begin exploring one of the oldest and most historically significant archaeological sites in Georgia. The visit includes walking through ancient ruins spread across a wide plateau, featuring remnants of churches, fortress walls, and residential structures that reflect different periods of Georgian history.
The itinerary allows time to explore the surrounding canyon landscape, with panoramic views of cliffs and river valleys adding to the experience. Guests can enjoy light walking, photography, and moments of quiet reflection in this peaceful and uncrowded environment.
A break is included during the visit, where guests can relax, take photos, or enjoy light refreshments in the natural surroundings.
After a fulfilling exploration, the return journey to Tbilisi begins in the afternoon, with arrival in the evening. This tour offers a well-balanced experience of history, nature, and cultural discovery within a single day.
This historical exploration tour from Tbilisi takes you to the remarkable ancient site of Samshvilde, one of the oldest continuously inhabited settlements in the region. Located in a dramatic canyon landscape in Kvemo Kartli, Samshvilde offers a rare combination of archaeology, history, and natural scenery.
The drive takes around 1.5 to 2 hours through rural landscapes, small villages, and rolling hills. As you approach the site, the terrain becomes more dramatic, opening into a wide canyon surrounded by cliffs and river valleys. The ancient city stretches across a large plateau and cliff edge, creating an impressive and atmospheric archaeological environment.
Samshvilde was once a powerful political and cultural center, and today visitors can explore its ruins, including churches, fortress walls, residential remains, and ancient infrastructure. The layered history of the site reflects different eras of Georgian civilization, from early Christian periods to medieval times.
Walking through Samshvilde feels like stepping into a forgotten city. Stone structures stand scattered across the landscape, partially reclaimed by nature. The canyon views add to the dramatic setting, making it both a historical and visual experience.
This tour is ideal for history enthusiasts, archaeology lovers, and travelers seeking meaningful cultural exploration. The peaceful environment allows time for reflection and photography. After a full day of discovery, guests return to Tbilisi in the evening. Tour highlight
