Tbilisi City Bike Tour combines the city’s historic neighbourhoods,
modern urban spaces, the Mtkvari riverside, and recreational areas.
Along the route, participants will explore the streets of Old Tbilisi,
well-known squares, parks, and some of the city’s most distinctive landmarks.
The route is mainly on paved roads, although some sections may include
cobblestones, pedestrian areas, and busier urban streets. The tour is

and short breaks along the way.
