Wonderful experience for first timers, Davit best guide
We enjoyed this trip very much, it was a good introduction to the city.. recommended for first timers at Tbilisi. Davit, our kind, knowledgeable, and friendly guide planned it very well so that we arrived at the chronicles first thing early before it is crowded and sunny, he explained all the portraits there and was very knowledgeable and explanatory. Also we recommend the drone videography there, great memory to capture. Then Davit took us through the rest of the tour where he provided great details about each spot history and best experiences to try. When you book this trip, ask for Davit as a guide, his English is fluent, he has a great personality and keen on representing Georgia in the best way possible 😍 we loved our experience in this tour.

Alex no as awesome guide.

Top highlights of Tbilisi: Old City Sameba Chronicles of Georgia: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tbilisi.
How much does Top highlights of Tbilisi: Old City Sameba Chronicles of Georgia 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 Top highlights of Tbilisi: Old City Sameba Chronicles of Georgia take?
+
Plan for about 5 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 Top highlights of Tbilisi: Old City Sameba Chronicles of Georgia worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 70 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 26 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 Top highlights of Tbilisi: Old City Sameba Chronicles of Georgia?
+
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 Top highlights of Tbilisi: Old City Sameba Chronicles of Georgia suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Top highlights of Tbilisi: Old City Sameba Chronicles of Georgia?
+
Around 9 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 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Top highlights of Tbilisi: Old City Sameba Chronicles of Georgia 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.
