Day

agricultural region of Georgia. During the tour we will
visit: Uplistsikhe, an ancient rock-hewn town in
eastern Georgia; Mtskheta - One of the oldest cities
of Georgia and its former capital; and The Joseph

Ancient rock-hewn town
that witnessed key events
of Georgian history
Located in Eastern Georgia, Uplitsikhe (literally
“Lord’s Fortress“) is an abandoned rock-hewn town,
which once have played an important role in
Georgian history. The place was founded in the late
Bronze Age, around 1000 BC, and continued to be

century BC and the 11st century AD, Uplistsikhe was
one of the most important political and religious
centers of pre-Christian Kartli – one of the
predecessors of the Georgian state.

Lunch at the local
restaurant
Situated at the crossroads of East and West, Georgia
has fallen within the orbit of many cultural influences
and empires. One of the earliest Christian
civilizations, Georgia has endured its share of
invasions and Georgian food is well reflective of its
past. In the times of peace, as merchants carried
goods and spices along the Great Silk Road,
Georgians embraced new seasonings and methods,
adopted and incorporated foreign ingredients and
styles into their own.

Museum and his Railway
Coach
Stalin’s museum remains, much as when it opened in
1957, a reverent homage to the Gori boy who
became a key figure of 20th-century world history –
although guides do now at least refer to the purges,
the Gulag and his 1939 pact with Hitler. As well as
the halls of memorabilia, the visit includes the tiny
wood-and-mudbrick house where Stalin lived for the
first four years of his life.

capital of Georgia and
Svetitskhoveli Cathedral

been inhabited since before 1,000 BC and was once
the capital of the early Kingdom of Iberia (today’s

is located on an ancient trade route. Archaeologists

major trading post.
