This immersive experience is designed to immerse you in the profound history and cultural richness of Mtskheta, a town deeply rooted in Georgia's heritage and spirituality.

Our adventure commences with a visit to Mtskheta, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in Georgia. Here, you'll have the opportunity to explore the iconic Svetitskhoveli Cathedral, a masterpiece of medieval Georgian architecture and a symbol of the country's enduring Christian faith. Marvel at the cathedral's majestic facade, adorned with intricate carvings and ornate frescoes, and step inside to discover the sacred relics and artifacts that have been preserved within its hallowed walls for centuries. As you wander through the cathedral's ancient halls, you'll be transported back in time to an era of kings and saints, where legends were born and miracles were believed to occur.

From Mtskheta, we journey to the nearby Jvari Monastery, a breathtaking 6th-century marvel perched atop a scenic hill overlooking the confluence of the Mtkvari and Aragvi rivers.

It was here that Saint Nino, the enlightener of Georgia, is said to have lived and preached Christianity in the 4th century, laying the foundation for the country's conversion to Christianity.
