      Excellent tour. The guide...

      Andrew_B, May 2026
      Excellent tour. The guide was very knowledgeable both about Georgian railways as well as Georgian history in general and answered all of my many questions. The tour saw a wide variety of trains (metro, passenger wagons, testing wagons, diesel and electric locomotives). It also covered a lot of the history of the people who lived near the railroad. It’s a walking tour, much of it unpaved, so be prepared to walk.

      Great tour for those wanting to wander a little off the beaten path and see another area of Tbilisi you probably won't be able to find and see on your own. Good fun and interesting history.
