From there, we travel to Gori, the birthplace of Joseph Stalin, where you will visit the controversial and unique museum dedicated to his life, complete with his personal belongings and armored railway carriage. Next, travel back to the Iron Age at Uplistsikhe, an ancient cave city carved directly into the rock. Explore its fascinating streets, temples, and a well-preserved theater that once thrived as a key center on the Silk Road. After a break for lunch, the tour concludes in the sacred heart of Georgia – the ancient city of Mtskheta.
