About this experience
Discover Kutaisi’s spiritual heritage on a guided tour to Bagrati Cathedral, Motsameta Monastery, and the Church of the Annunciation. Learn about Georgia’s culture, faith, and architecture. Start with Bagrati Cathedral, a symbol of Kutaisi and a masterpiece of medieval Georgian design. Admire its hilltop views and learn how it has been restored after centuries of change. Continue to the Church of the Annunciation, a unique site blending Catholic and Orthodox traditions. Built in 1823 in the Baroque style on the site of a royal chapel, it once served Kutaisi’s Catholic community before returning to the Orthodox Church in 1989. Then visit Motsameta Monastery, perched above the Tskaltsitela River. Hear the legend of the martyred brothers David and Konstantine and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere and stunning views. Your guide will share stories that bring Georgia’s spiritual and cultural history to life before you return to Kutaisi.

Great tour to monasteries
We started the tour with a trip to Gelati, the complex was closed because of restauration work in progress, but our guide Teona from Medgobari Tours showed us two churches and an old hospital, from where we has a great view. Then we visited Motsameti and Bagrati; the first with wonderful views over the greenery and river, the second with a perfect view over Kutaisi. Thank you, Teona!

Very nice way to easily see and learn about the 3 Monasteries
Teona was delightful on this 3-hour excursion to see 3 Monasteries in the area. It’s a great way learn even more about the history of Georgia as a whole along with the Monasteries. note: Gelati Monastery was completely covered in exterior scaffolding and non-accessible which was a disappointment, but Teona came up with another idea and we walked up the hill nearby and saw an absolutely adorable little church with ancient interior paintings. Recommend.
Response from the operator: Dear Karen, Thank you for nice feedback! Glad you enjoyed your experience with Megobari Tours Georgia and our great guide Teona! Welcome back anytime!

BEST TOUR GUIDE EVER!
We are 4 adults and we travelled for a vacation in Georgia during the last week of June. We decided to book tours with Megobari and it was the best decision we ever made. Mikheili was our guide who received us at Kutaisi airport. We spent 2 nights in Kutaisi and 3 nights in Batumi. By the end of the trip, he wasnt our guide anymore, he became our friend. He was very friendly and helpful and we loved spending time with him. We would like to thank Eva as well from Megobari who arranged everything for us. The level of professionalism and friendliness this office has is beyond amazing! We definetly recommend using this tour agent for any trip you have in Georgia. We want to thank Mikheili and Eva for making our trip so memorable 💖

Why this scores 75
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Kutaisi: Bagrati & Motsameta Religious Heritage Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kutaisi.
How much does Kutaisi: Bagrati & Motsameta Religious Heritage Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $20 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Kutaisi usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Kutaisi: Bagrati & Motsameta Religious Heritage Tour take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Kutaisi is not rushed.
Is Kutaisi: Bagrati & Motsameta Religious Heritage Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 75 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 29 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Kutaisi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Kutaisi: Bagrati & Motsameta Religious Heritage Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Kutaisi: Bagrati & Motsameta Religious Heritage Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 1. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 2-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Kutaisi: Bagrati & Motsameta Religious Heritage Tour?
+
Around 10 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Kutaisi can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Kutaisi and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Kutaisi: Bagrati & Motsameta Religious Heritage Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Kutaisi within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Kutaisi?
+
On Outty we rank every Kutaisi experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include CANYONS & CAVE Tour from Kutaisi - Okatse, Martvili & Prometheus, Kutaisi:Chiatura Tour with Katskhi Pillar & Cable Car Experience, From Kutaisi: Martvili & Okatse Canyons & Cave Guided Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Kutaisi?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Kutaisi?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
