Overview
Discover historic sites and scenery in Bodbe, Sighnaghi and Kvareli on a full-day tour from Tbilisi. Some of eastern Georgia’s most beautiful places are widely scattered across the rolling landscape - reaching all three towns without your own transport would be a challenge—but with a guide to take care of logistics you can focus on exploring a UNESCO-listed city, strolling a historic monastery, and taking in Georgia’s ‘City of Love.’
Bodbe Monastery of St. Nino
We go to Bodbe Nunnery. On the way to Bodbe, we stop at the viewpoint of Sighnaghi and take amazing pictures. Bodbe Nunnery of St. Nino is located in Kakheti, 2 kilometers away from Sighnaghi. According to the legend, it is built on the burial place of Saint Nino. A saint for Georgians who converted their religion into Christianity. Georgian kings were paying great attention to the Bodbe Monastery. It has been repaired and restored many times.
Sighnaghi
Sighnaghi is a town in Kakheti, 75 km east of Tbilisi. However, Georgia's smallest towns serve as a popular tourist destination due to their location at the heart of Georgia's wine-growing region, its picturesque landscapes, pastel houses with wooden fretwork balconies, and narrow cobblestone streets. The Great Wall of Georgia has stunning views for taking pictures, and the city is surrounded by it.
Badiauri
On the way, we visit Badiauri village, where you are welcome to taste delicious Georgian bread, cheese, and Chacha.
