Tianetskiy Wildlife Sanctuary Sabaduri
After the Chronicles, we journey into the heart of nature to the famous Sabaduri Forest area. Here, tucked away in the village of Tskhvarichamia, lies a unique ethical shelter dedicated to the protection of Georgia’s wildlife. This stop is a favorite for families and animal lovers. You will visit a special sanctuary established to rehabilitate brown bears, wolves, and dogs. Unlike a standard zoo, this center focuses on care and preservation, offering you a rare chance to observe these majestic creatures up close in a safe environment. The highlight of the visit is the interaction—visitors are welcome to bring treats like apples or carrots to hand-feed the bears and horses. It is a heartwarming experience that children adore. Surrounded by the dense forest, which turns into a snowy fairytale land in winter, this location offers incredible photo opportunities and unforgettable memories with Georgia's native animals.

5.00We had a wonderful experience on the Family Half-Day Tour to Sabaduri, Georgian Chronicles, and Jvari, especially traveling with an infant and senior family members. The itinerary was very well planned — relaxed, scenic, and not physically demanding, which made it ideal for all age groups. Our guide Guram truly made the trip special. He was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and patient, and he genuinely cared about everyone’s comfort. Guram explained the history and culture in a clear and engaging way, never rushing us, and he was always happy to adjust the pace to suit our family’s needs. He was especially considerate with the baby and very respectful toward the seniors, which we greatly appreciated. The locations were beautiful and easily accessible, with plenty of time to enjoy the views at Jvari, learn about the Georgian Chronicles, and relax in the peaceful Sabaduri area. The drive was smooth, and transportation was comfortable throughout the tour. Overall, this was a stress-free, enjoyable, and enriching experience. We highly recommend this tour to families, especially those traveling with infants or elderly members — and if you get Guram as your guide, you’re in excellent hands!
Great experience and the...

5.00Our guide Nina was very friendly and patient with us. The tour is so much fun, not tiring at all. 10/10 Chronicles of Georgia are legendary and the bears and wolves sanctuary was so much fun. Nina also got us carrots to feed them and taught us few tricks to play with the animals
A great 4 hours exploring surrounding sights!

5.00We had an amazing experience with Ms Khatuna. She's well informed, passionate about her work and country. She answered all the questions we had and it was very enlightening and entertaining. The snowy forest walk was truly a moment picked out of a fairytale. Feeding the bears and wolves was also a unique experience. We truly enjoyed and would highly recommend booking this tour. We've already booked another tour for tomorrow and plan to book their walking tour as well. Kudos to the entire team!
