Morning light over Tbilisi slants across the Kura River and paints the old town in hard, usable color — roofs, balconies, sulfur-bath chimneys catching a day that promises movement. On this three-day private loop, travelers trade the city’s layered streets for the Georgian Military Road, where mountains rise quickly and the air sharpens with altitude.
