Description
Your adventure begins when your personal guide collects you from your accommodation in Tbilisi. First, we head to Mtskheta, the ancient capital of the Kingdom of Iberia and a UNESCO World Heritage site. Here, you'll explore two of Georgia’s architectural marvels: the Svetitskhoveli Cathedral and Jvari Monastery. These sites are not just stunning in their grandeur — they are cornerstones in the development of medieval architecture across the Caucasus.
The journey continues as we drive towards the Jinvali reservoir to the Aragvi Adventure Center. Here, after a detailed safety briefing, you'll plunge into the refreshing waters of the Aragvi River for a thrilling whitewater rafting experience. The rapids are exhilarating yet welcoming to beginners, ensuring everyone can enjoy the rush regardless of experience, including non-swimmers. Our 12-kilometer journey begins in Pasanauri and concludes in Meneso. This gentle route is perfect for beginners, offering a friendly introduction to the sport.
Post-adventure, unwind with a delightful hot barbecue and a glass of fine local Georgian wine, surrounded by the tranquil beauty of the reservoir — a perfect blend of culinary delight and natural serenity.
Our final stop is the Ananuri fortress, a historic edifice that once housed a powerful feudal dynasty. Explore the fortifications and remnants of the ancient citadel. This site, perched on the tentative list for UNESCO World Heritage inclusion since 2007, offers breathtaking views and a palpable sense of history.
As the day winds down, we will return you comfortably to your lodging in Tbilisi, filled with unforgettable memories and experiences from a day spent traversing the riches of Georgia.
