About this tour
This walk crosses Kutaisi's nineteenth-century White Bridge and follows the streets just beyond it. You see the Rioni River splitting the old town in two, then a lane of houses with wooden balconies on the far bank. It is a short, easy introduction to the city's centre.
We start right on the bridge itself, since the river view works well there, then move slowly along the lane so the balconies read clearly. I answer questions about the town's layout as we go.
It suits a first stop in Kutaisi before the hill climbs and monasteries further out, and anyone who prefers a gentle walk to start with.
Included
- Live video walk with a local guide
- Questions to your guide all the way

Crossing the White Bridge 15 min
The camera crosses the nineteenth-century White Bridge over the Rioni, and I point out how the river splits the old town into two distinct halves.
-
Riverside lanes on the far bank 15 min
We follow a lane of older houses just off the river, and I point out the wooden balconies typical of Kutaisi's residential streets.
-
Your questions 7 min
Time to ask anything about Kutaisi: prices, safety, food, or whatever you are curious about.
-
A short list to keep 3 min
Before you go, the guide sums up with a few things worth remembering: a dish to try: Khinkali and Ukimerioni Hill, worth a slower look.
