In the morning, our guide will meet you at your hotel. You will depart from Tbilisi and begin your journey toward the picturesque wine region of Kakheti. After approximately 90 minutes, you will arrive at the small village of Badiauri. Here, you will have the opportunity to taste and personally participate in making traditional Georgian bread – Shotis Puri. You will also visit a local family home, where you can see their small vineyard and garden, experiencing authentic rural life in Georgia.

After approximately 45 minutes, you will reach Bodbe Monastery, a serene spiritual complex nestled in the hills above the Alazani Valley. Founded in the 4th century, the monastery is the final resting place of St. Nino, the Cappadocian woman from the Roman Empire who brought Christianity to Georgia. Surrounded by tall cypress trees and offering panoramic views of the valley, Bodbe Monastery is a peaceful place for prayer, reflection, and spiritual retreat. It is one of the most popular and most visited monasteries in Georgia.

Just 10 minutes away is our next destination – the romantic town of Sighnaghi, also known as the “City of Love.” Perched on a hilltop, Sighnaghi is famous for its cobblestone streets, colorful balconies, and breathtaking views. One of the town’s most remarkable features is the Great Wall of Sighnaghi, often referred to as the “Georgian Great Wall.” Built in the 18th century by King Erekle II to protect the area from invasions, the wall stretches over 4 kilometers and includes 28 watchtowers—each named after local villages. A walk along the wall offers unforgettable views of the Alazani Valley and the distant Caucasus Mountains. You’ll have free time to explore the charming streets, take photos, shop for handmade souvenirs and enjoy a delicious lunch at a traditional restaurant (optional).

After approximately 1 hour, you will arrive in the small town of Kvareli to visit one of Georgia’s oldest wineries — Corporation Kindzmarauli, which historically belonged to the Georgian royal family. This winery preserves Georgia’s 8,000-year-old winemaking traditions. During the visit, you will learn how wine and chacha are produced, see traditional clay vessels (qvevri), and enjoy a tasting of local wines. The guided tour covers all stages of the winemaking process, where traditional methods blend with modern technology, including the wine bottling section. Among all wineries in Kakheti, Corporation Kindzmarauli is the only one offering such a comprehensive and engaging experience, lasting nearly one hour and concluding with a wine tasting.
