FROM TBILISI · DAVID GAREJA & RAINBOW MOUNTAINS

The 9 Best David Gareja & Rainbow Mountains Trips

9 tours  ·  ★★★★★★★★★★ 5.0 average  ·  from $39

Semi-desert an hour and a half from the city: a monastery complex cut into the hillside on the border, and striped clay ridges nobody expects to find here. These 9 differ on how much walking there is, whether a 4WD is included, and what else they pick up in Kakheti.

“This was an incredible trip that could not have been more wonderful. Our guide Levan and driver Mamouka were warm, funny and knowledgeable about everywhere we went. Levan has a deep understanding of the history of Georgia and provided great insight to the places we visited. Even though Mamouka didn't speak English, he understood it and would add jokes or stories to our conversation; my dad and I were laughing the entire trip. We stopped along the way to Signaghi for roadside sheshuli and homemade bread and cheese. Levan and Mamouka knew the merchants and we were given private tastings of the homemade sauces, wine, cognac and cha cha. This…”
