Private Tour to Rainbow Mountains and David Gareja
The first place you will stop is a shop to buy snacks.
The second stop is at a salty lake, where you can take some nice pictures. After the lake, we continued driving through Udabno Village, which translated as a desert.
You will start walking toward the famous Rainbow Mountains at the end of the drive. The most impressive feature of the landscape is the mineral-rich sedimentary rock, which looks like it’s been painted with brightly colored stripes.
David Gareji Monastery Complex is one of the most spiritual places in the country. You will hear the stories of the monastery, do a bit of hiking and see a Georgian soldier at the border of Georgia and Azerbaijan. It’s believed that St. David chose this isolated location because he wanted his Disciples to lead a life of holiness independent from the rest of society.
