City tour Tbilisi on red bus

2.City tour Tbilisi on red bus

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 139 reviews · 1 hour 30 minutes (approx.) · from $20

See Tbilisi from a red double-decker bus on a roughly 90-minute city circuit, with views of the Old Town, sulphur baths, Mtkvari River, Rike Park, Peace Bridge, Rustaveli Avenue, and Dry Bridge Market. Your 24-hour ticket lets you ride again or hop off, while headsets provide commentary in 14 languages.

“I didn't like the tour very much, the driver drove very fast and we didn't have enough time to appreciate the scenes. The girl asked where we'd get off, which felt a bit stressing, so we said we'd stay on the bus until the tour ended and she said "Yes, I understand. It's raining and it's cold, so it's better if you stay on the bus". However, after one or two more stops she asked us to get off the bus and wait for the next one (each bus come every 30 minutes). That was really uncomfortable because it was raining and everything was wet and cold. So disappointing!!!!”
