Traveler's Meeting Point - is a free space where you can meet new exciting people, play board games, listen to good music or enjoy a glass of wine.
The first place where you will stop is a shop to buy snacks. Since the area doesn't have good restaurants and we do not have a lunch stop, you should get some snacks not to feel too hungry and uncomfortable. And next, we go to a salty lake, where we have an outstanding possibility to take some nice pictures. The lake is on the way to David Gareji Lavra, and the views are astonishing for taking memorable photos. In total, for the shop and the lake, we will have 30 minutes.

5.00Tota (Nicholas) was a fantastic guide, he was very knowledgeable about the local history and answered my (many) questions. Zaza drove much safer than your average Marshutka driver and his van had seatbelts which I appreciated. The monastery and rainbow mountains were stunning, well worth the visit!
Rainbow mountains day trip!

5.00It was great. Tota was a wonderful guide and the views hiking in the rainbow mountains were spectacular. Zaza, the driver got us there very safely. I would definitely recommend doing this tour if you love nature and a nice hike with a picnic at the end.

5.00Zaza was our driver and Tota (Nicholas) was our guide for the trip and he was fantastic! He led our lovely hike through the rainbow mountains. I do believe maybe 5 more minutes at the rainbow mountains would have been better, but it was very windy, so I understand. There were no big crowds at any of the stops. In fact, there were almost no people on the hike. The hike to the picnic, the ancient monastery, it was all lovely. One of the cutest day trips you can do—quieter, more kinesthetic with the hiking, perfect for someone who would want to get away from the hustle and bustle of city life for a few hours and soak in the landscape and the wind. I hope this review helps. Lots of love. -Joey
Would do again

5.00We had an excellent tour with Tota to Rainbow Mountain. The trip was very informative, and Tota shared a lot of interesting information throughout the day. He was knowledgeable, professional, and always made sure everyone was comfortable and doing well during the journey. Tota was also very friendly and had a great sense of humor, which made the trip even more enjoyable. The destination itself was absolutely worth visiting – the landscapes were stunning, and the views were breathtaking. We highly recommend this tour and especially Tota as a guide. Thank you for a wonderful experience!
