I'm offering local, private tour in two Georgian cities, Tbilisi and Mtskheta. My bucket includes visiting the oldest sites of one of the oldest civilizations on the planet. The tour starts from the the ancient churches and the walls of Tbilisi and continues in the very first capital, Mtskheta which is called the 2nd Jerusalem because of its connection with the beginning of Christianity in Georgia and the preservation of the Robe of Jesus Christ. My passion for history, medieval times, and affection for the traditional behavior of the Georgian people will make our walk tour very interesting. • Tbilisi walking tour with experienced historian; • Visit the most famous and ancient spots in the Old Town; • Transfer from Tbilisi to Mtskheta Old Town; • Visit the most iconic Georgian cultural sites, Svetitskhoveli Cathedral and Jvari Monastery; • Relax and take pictures in the beautiful view of the place where the Mtkvari & Aragvi rivers meet. • Wine ice cream in Mtskheta is included :)

    Ideal choice for those staying in Tbilisi

    The tour was exceptionally well-organized, covering all the key highlights of Tbilisi and Mtskheta. The schedule was perfectly balanced, allowing ample time to explore each site without feeling rushed. I discovered fascinating places and received insightful information that I wouldn't have easily found in guidebooks. The guide was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate, bringing the history and culture of these beautiful cities to life. Everything ran smoothly from start to finish. Overall, this tour exceeded my expectations, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking to delve deeper into the rich heritage of Georgia.

    Highly informative and simply amazing walking tour in Tbilisi/Mtskheta

    I have been on the walking tour with Giorgi and I absolutely enjoyed it! If you have an interest in history and politics (which Georgia obviously has a lot to offer), and you want to dig a bit deeper, you should absolutely go on this tour! I would definitely do it again and I hope to be back one day. :)

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much, Stephy. Looking forward to meet again!

    Private Walking Tour in Tbilisi and Mtskheta Old Town: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tbilisi.

    How much does Private Walking Tour in Tbilisi and Mtskheta Old Town cost?

    +

    Prices start at $60 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Tbilisi usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Private Walking Tour in Tbilisi and Mtskheta Old Town take?

    +

    Plan for about 4 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 Tbilisi is not rushed.

    Is Private Walking Tour in Tbilisi and Mtskheta Old Town worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 59 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Tbilisi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Private Walking Tour in Tbilisi and Mtskheta Old Town?

    +

    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 Private Walking Tour in Tbilisi and Mtskheta Old Town suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Private Walking Tour in Tbilisi and Mtskheta Old Town?

    +

    Around 1 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 Tbilisi 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 Tbilisi and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Private Walking Tour in Tbilisi and Mtskheta Old Town 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 Tbilisi 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 Tbilisi?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Tbilisi experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Kakheti Wine Region Tour + 10 Premium Wine Tastings & Sunset, Tbilisi:Mtskheta,Jvari,Bazaar,Chronicles of Georgia & Wine Cellar, Day Trip to Kazbegi and Gudauri. 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 Tbilisi?

    +

    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 Tbilisi?

    +

    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.

    What is included in Private Walking Tour in Tbilisi and Mtskheta Old Town?

    +

    Included: Private transportation; Snacks; and Surcharges on fuel. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
