Tbilisi is a city that lives between the Caucasus mountains and ancient grapevines, where the only thing more dangerous than the local wine, is a Georgian grandmother who thinks you look hungry. It’s a place where a food constitution would be written in flour, cheese, and walnuts. But while everyone claims to have the best recipe, it pays to know the culinary ropes. Our feasting tour of 12+ tastings invites guests on a culinary experience around the backstreets of Tbilisi led by our team of professional foodie guides. Before we get started, our tour reflects the local cuisine and the limitations of street food vendors means we unfortunately cannot cater for every dietary restriction. Here's an honest appraisal for the tour so no-one is disappointed: ✖️Vegetarians and gluten-free guests have 3-4 less tastings due to limited alternatives. ✖️ Unsuitable for severe allergies, halal and celiac diets due to risk of traces and cross-contamination.

Start at a subterranean bakery, to see shoti long bread slapped against the walls of a clay Tone oven and tear into a hot, bean-filled lobiani. These basements have fed neighbours through wars and revolutions. At a local eatery that has stood its ground for over a decade, we dive into colourful mosaic of pkhali walnut spreads of purple beetroot, and forest-green spinach. We’d rather not spoil the surprise, but a sneak peek of our 15+ tastings includes some firm favorites. Try ostri, a beef stew that’s a slow-simmered, fiery testament to the country’s Dukani tavern history.
