Tour description

Join us for a relaxed walking tour through the vibrant center and charming Old Town of Kutaisi.

We begin at the iconic white columns near the Meskhishvili Theatre and stroll down historic Rustaveli Street to the scenic White Bridge. Along the way, enjoy a fresh Georgian pretzel from a local bakery — a tasty bite of daily life.

We'll explore the bustling Green Bazaar, where locals trade fresh produce, spices, and homemade goods, and walk across the Chain Bridge with views of the Rioni River.

The tour ends at the foot of the steps to Bagrati Cathedral, which you’re free to visit afterward.

Your local guide will share stories about Kutaisi’s history, culture, and everyday life, along with personal tips on the best spots to eat, drink, and explore. It’s the perfect experience for first-time visitors who want to see the real Kutaisi — not just the sights, but the soul of the city.
