Kutaisi Walking Tour
Kutaisi, Georgia
Why Walk Kutaisi
Kutaisi was the capital of the ancient kingdom of Colchis — the legendary destination of Jason and the Argonauts. The Bagrati Cathedral crowns a hill above the city, and the Gelati Monastery complex, founded by King David the Builder in 1106, is one of the masterpieces of Georgian medieval architecture. Nearby Prometheus Cave offers a different kind of spectacle underground.
