Why fly to Tbilisi?
Holidays in Tbilisi - where ancient streets meet a wine scene that’s been fine-tuned over the last 8,000 years. Talk about aged to perfection.
Exploring the history and sights of Tbilisi
The Old Town is a tapestry of cobbled streets, pastel balconies and ancient sulphur baths bubbling beneath domed roofs. Overhead, Narikala Fortress stands proud, while Mother Georgia keeps watch – wine in one hand, sword in the other, because everyone needs a bit of balance. This is a city where centuries-old Orthodox churches rub shoulders with daringly modern creations like the Bridge of Peace, and it all just works. Tbilisi’s mix of history and creativity is everywhere, giving this city break a charm that feels effortlessly cool.
Food, culture and nightlife of Tbilisi
Food here is nothing short of legendary. Try the khinkali dumplings, practically burst with flavour, and don’t miss the khachapuri – Georgia’s gloriously cheesy, boat-shaped bread – it’s the culinary equivalent of a warm hug. Pair that with wines that are as much an art form as a drink, and you’re in for a feast. The city’s bar scene crackles with energy, from hidden speakeasies to lively terraces, and Tbilisi’s blend of street art and music keeps the atmosphere buzzing well into the night.
Scenery of Tbilisi
Venture beyond the city, and the Kakheti wine region greets you with rolling vineyards, medieval monasteries and wine tastings that are accompanied by warm conversations and none of that wine-tasting pretentiousness. Framed by the breathtaking Caucasus Mountains, it’s a scene that feels almost too good to be true. Whether it’s the food, the buzz or wine worthy of its own lifetime achievement award, a city break to Tbilisi will always leave you wanting more.
