It's a great place. You can come with an excursion, you can do it yourself. In any case, you will have a great time. There is a 10th century church on the top of the ancient city. It 's a very atmospheric place . There are also stunning views of the river from above. Parking is paid. The toilet on the territory of the complex is free (after purchasing an entrance ticket). There is a restaurant. Decent cuisine for reasonable money.There are power outages, so you can stay without lunch.

Our favorite place in Georgia. Perfect for walking with children 6+. Amazing landscapes, beautiful views, and you can also climb rocks, watch large lizards, and meet a land turtle. Be sure to walk along the river through the ruined village to the old cemetery.

A magnificent monument of ancient architecture, which is more than 4,000 years old. The guides will tell you about the life of the people in these places in a very interesting and fascinating way. You should definitely visit and see this wonderful place with your own eyes.

I really liked it! It is convenient to get from Tbilisi in 1-1.5 hours, the road is good. There is all the infrastructure downstairs. At the top, where the city itself is, there are convenient routes, you can go in the direction where there are fewer people now. The view from above is simply amazing!

It's a great place. Be prepared to walk and climb rocks a lot. If you have knee problems, this place is not for you. In fact, it is a mountain with caves. Please note that there is a free toilet and a cafe right after the entrance. There is a paid toilet in the parking lot, so don't rush to do things in advance. The cafe is wonderful, you can have a full lunch. There is also a museum inside, but everything is written in English or Georgian. If you don't speak English, Google will help ;) This place has left an indelible impression.

We walked through the caves for 2 hours)) It was January 25, 25, strong wind, beautiful views, sometimes scary and beautiful at the same time, as there are steep places)) there were no people, we were almost alone, everything was very cool, if anyone goes, then it's worth it, of course, of course)) you can wander around the caves for an unlimited time, there are no visitors like in museums, there is a church in the territory, small and very old, you can put a candle on, candles are sold)) there is also a wine cellar on the territory, we paid extra for it at the entrance and they gave us 5 wines to taste there, there were 4 of us))

It's just a fabulous place. It was as if he had plunged into the distant past. The feeling of something secret and great does not leave you throughout your stay. I recommend visiting before 11 a.m. and after 4 p.m. Or be prepared to sweat) it is mandatory to wear a headdress. It is better not to come as part of a tour, but to visit a small group: with family, with friends, together and book a guide on the spot. Because there were times when I wanted to sit down in a cave, close my eyes and disappear into the here and now. As part of the tour group, it is unlikely to work. My family and I traveled from Tbilisi by car.

For those who are on their own. We took the express train to Gori, and then returned by bus, but not to the station. Uplistsikhe, and until the next one. You can see everything on the map. There's only one road, and it won't take long. In general, there is no reason to overpay for a taxi.

An interesting historical place. Good road, large enough Parking, easy ascent to the main attractions. Admission in September 2023 cost 17 lari. There are toilets (free) on the site, souvenir trade .... There are a lot of elderly people. Especially foreigners. Transport and pedestrian accessibility apparently affects. At the foot of the full house with a description of the cave city and its history in several languages. Very useful. The temple on the mountain is active.. The territory of the mountain is equipped. Ladders, paths, railings An interesting place . I recommend.

A complex of caves near Gori. There is a parking lot, toilets and summer cafes. There are a lot of signs with names everywhere. It's not difficult to climb, but it's better to put on sneakers and take a windbreaker and sunglasses. Different caves from some time ago, almost the whole city. Strong winds blow from above, lots of sun and beautiful views. Because it's all at a high altitude. There is a wine cellar at the end of the tour. If you take a ticket for 20 GEL, then they will pour a glass. In general, it is possible to visit, for the sake of caves and views.

A cool old town a couple of hours from Tbilisi. There are different routes to it. There is a cafe on site. There is a cafe before the entrance to the park, but there was a very strange service. There is a very promising greeting at the entrance, and then a student who knows little about this matter. But in the old town itself, you can have a great time. Dress warmly! The wind is very strong there! An aksakal stands at the entrance and sells honey, wine, etc.

In order not to repeat all the reviews, just tips: there is a toilet of 1 GEL in the parking lot, inside the complex after buying tickets for free; a wine museum is not required, just an advertisement for local wine and half a glass, and a little lecture. Well, the parking grandfather, who will charge you 5 lari for parking on government-owned gravel. Classic.

Be sure to visit, especially if you are going to Gori. Of course there are a lot of people, but the magic of the place does not disappear from this. Everyone will find their own. Get to know the local lizard inhabitants. If you have enough time, visit the ancient village at the foot, you will understand that..... here it is individual.

An interesting place. Huge territory, great view. It is windy, so it is necessary to fix or, better yet, remove the hats. You can go to the museum, the whole story is painted in detail, we did not have enough time to watch the film, although thanks to it it would be even clearer what and who and why. If the administrator has the opportunity, then give a link to the movie that is being broadcast there. Thank you in advance.

While traveling in Georgia, we decided to stop by this landmark. At first, the navigator took us to the cemetery in the neighboring village, but after a long search we still found the right road. At the entrance, they immediately charged us 3 GEL for parking and persistently offered to buy jam for 20lari, then at the entrance they charged 15lari per person for admission. At the same time, there was no audio guide, as well as excursions. There is a small museum of what was found during the excavations. We walked around the territory and looked at the closed temple and the remains of rock settlements. Most of which are in poor condition. The whole inspection took no more than half an hour. From the territory of the settlement there is a view of the ruins of the settlement in the valley of the river. In general, if you do not visit this place, you will not lose much

The ticket price for an adult is 15 lari or 20 lari with wine tasting (I won't tell you what it is). I recommend watching it for sure!

We explored the cave city on our own, eavesdropped on guides from organized groups, so we got interesting information! It is necessary to start the examination early in the morning so that you do not overheat in the sun, and the photos are good only in the morning or evening. We waited out the heavy rain in the church, thunder and lightning caught up with the horror, and then the lights went out! It was good with candles in a reliable stone temple! And on the way back in five minutes there is a food court with an incredibly delicious lunch! Have a meal, you won't regret it!!!

Ancient city. Two exit prices with and without wine tasting. The difference is 5 GEL. There is an audio guide in Russian. There is not much information in principle, but it gives understanding. I write what worried me. I've been climbing there for three hours. I took a Bolt taxi from Gori for 14 lari, he offered to wait for me for an hour for 30 lari. Because it is impossible to order a Bolt taxi in the opposite direction. I refused. Before that, another taxi driver offered 2 hours of waiting for GEL 40. At the checkout, she clarified that she travels from the neighboring village in a 15-minute walk once an hour by bus Uplestsikhe-Gori. At the exit, I asked the guard to call me a taxi and he found a person, agreed for 20 lari to Gori 👍 That is, it is not a dead zone, as people from Gori say, and you can leave from there. + there are a lot of Russian tourists in cars, I think you can negotiate with them. There are also a lot of foreigners.

As a museum methodologist, it was just wild for me to walk around this historical place - you need to be able not to invest so much in presentation and presentation. You will not see anything with your eyes except what is visible from the car window or in the pictures in Yandex. A very relaxed museum arrangement, in any provincial town local historians invest more.

A historic place! You can also walk and see without a guide. The ticket price is 20 lari for an adult. The whole story is on the website and on the Internet. There is a very tasty and expensive wine on the territory, I recommend a rare variety of locally produced Akhasheni. A bottle costs 70 GEL, but when you try it, the price dissolves into an awesome taste!

Uplistsikhe is an amazing place. It is better to arrive at the opening by 10 o'clock in the morning, then there are still not so many tourists. It is better to take a minimum ticket for 15 lari (the cost for March 2023), and for 20 lari a wine tasting will also be included - the wine is expensive and did not go very far for me - do not waste time and money.
