Tips for Adventure

Secret Courtyards of Sololaki

Gently push through the old wooden gates on streets like Asatiani or Tabidze to discover spectacular halls with 19th-century frescoes and Italian communal courtyards.

Sunset in Betlemi

Climb the Betlemi steps towards the eponymous church just before sunset for one of the best golden views over the old town without the crowds at the top of Narikala.

Clothing in Orthodox Churches

It is mandatory for women to cover their heads with a scarf and wear a long skirt (or cover themselves with the aprons available at the entrance), and for men to wear long pants and covered shoulders.

Hospitality

Flatly refusing a meal invitation or a glass of homemade wine from a host may be perceived as a lack of courtesy; Just try a little to honor the gesture.

Tap and Mineral Water

Tap water in Tbilisi comes from mountain springs and is drinkable, although many travelers opt for the famous natural sparkling mineral waters such as Borjomi or Nabeghlavi.

Ritual in the Sulfur Baths

The traditional exfoliating massage ('kisa') in the sulfur baths is vigorous but very revitalizing. Remove silver jewelry before diving, as sulfur instantly blackens it.

Caution with Crossroads and Traffic

Drivers can be reckless and rarely yield at crosswalks without a traffic light. Always use underpasses when available.

Unofficial taxis

Avoid taking taxis at street level without meters at the airport or train stations. Download and use apps like Bolt or Yandex Go to guarantee fixed and cheap rates.
