Experience the Cable Car in Chiatura and panoramic views

Begin your full-day tour with a hotel pick-up in Tbilisi and a comfortable drive toward Chiatura, a city famous for its Soviet-era cable cars and industrial history. Explore the Mgvimevi Convent, a working nunnery carved into the side of a rocky cliff. Discover the cave-like interior with its stone engravings, relics, and small chapel adorned with frescoes. Take in the stunning view from the lookout point as you admire the church clinging to the cliff face, then enjoy a delicious local lunch to recharge before continuing your adventure.

Next, visit the remarkable Katskhi Column, a towering 40-meter limestone pillar with an Orthodox monastery perched on top, where monks continue the centuries-old tradition of ascending via a narrow metal ladder. Experience the daring history and unique spirituality of this site. End the tour with a ride on the historic Chiatura cable car to the old Soviet Pioneer Palace, enjoying panoramic views and the nostalgic Soviet atmosphere.
