The program begins at 09:00 A.M.
You haven't been to Georgia if you haven't explored Kakheti!
Now it's time to taste the Alazani Valley in all its meanings. But first, some more spiritual food - Bodbe, the convent of St. Nino, the most revered Saint in Georgia. After all, thanks to Nino, Christianity was adopted in Georgia.
The moment has come to experience the Alazani Valley in every possible way. But first, some more spiritual sustenance: Bodbe, Georgia's most beloved saint, St. Nino's convent. In the end, Christianity was accepted in Georgia thanks to Nino.
We visit the home of love after experiencing the taste of chastity. The word "refuge" (Sighnaghi) is used to describe this. Here, Pirosmani, the famous artist, fell in love with Margarita, his actress. "An artist lived by himself. He had a lot of difficulties. However, he adored the flower-loving actress! A million roses in scarlet. Consider. This location is the subject of this!
Not only the second name reminds us of love in Sighnaghi, but also the 24-hour registry office, which can register the relationship of lovers at the speed of Las Vegas, that is, in about fifteen minutes.
Next we try the long macaroni (only the curly noodles of the Great Wall of China are longer) of the fortress wall with 28 meatballs of watchtowers. We look at the valley. That very one, Alazani.
And then – we try. In the home bakery we will try to make Georgian bread shotis puri in a hot oven – tone. And we will have a tasty snack – hot bread with a crispy crust.
Free time for lunch (not included in the cost)
After lunch, we realize that we need to taste the wine better, and we go to the winery, where, keeping the dignity of gourmets and aesthetes on our faces, we taste real Georgian wine to our heart's content while being told about... What do you think? That's right - while being told about real Georgian wine. Transfer to Tbilisi and overnight.
