Walk Tbilisi’s Jewish landmarks with museum highlights and synagogue stops, then finish with wine tasting. Small group, 2h15.
“This was a really wonderful tour of Georgian Jewish history. The guide Teona is very knowledgeable on Jewish culture and history in Georgia and has designed an accessible tour of the main Jewish cultural sites in Tbilisi that is not too long (about 2 hrs total), but still very comprehensive and insightful; we learned a lot about a really unique aspect of both Georgian and Jewish history. You do not need to be Jewish to take this tour - it would appeal to anyone interested in exploring and learning more about Georgia/Tbilisi. The complimentary wine tasting at the end was a nice way to round out the afternoon. Highly recommend.”
