The tour started at 09:00 from Budget Travel Office in Kutaisi, prior to which we walk around to find some coffee and something to eat. Eventually we find an open coffee shop with very expensive coffee 8.9 Lari which equates to R55 for an americano, Michael's sandwich of croissant with ham cheese and salad was only 10 Lari R66.
Cool drinks in restaurants are around 500ml and they cost 5 Lari water is 3 Lari.
We made it back just in time to go on the trip.
The first stop is Okatse Canyon. This is the deepest canyon in Georgia with hanged bridges and sky walks. Okatse Canyon is a dramatic natural monument located in the village of Zeda Gordi within Georgia's Imereti region, best known for its thrilling 780-meter-long cliff-facing hanging walkway suspended up to 100 meters above the canyon floor. We hike the 7 km round trip over the canyon and back astounded by the views.
Our next stop is Martvili Canyon where we walk through the canyon and explore the depth of it, along with stunning waterfalls. Martvili Canyon is a stunning natural monument located in the Samegrelo region of western Georgia. Carved out by the Abasha River, (which means Retreat river) it is famous for its vibrant emerald-green waters, steep limestone walls, and dramatic waterfalls. Once a private bathing spot for the noble Dadiani family, it is now one of Georgia's most popular nature destinations
Hiking makes us starving, so we stop in the local restaurant for a lunch break. Michael has a beef stew and i have egg plant with walnut. Georgian food is excellent!
The last spot of the tour is Prometheus cave, that is 1,4 km long and is located 80 meters
below surface level. In the cave there is a hall of love where people get married. Here you can enjoy the cave area and underground boating afterwhich we go back to Kutaisi. We are in the city at 19:00.
