This is not your typical sightseeing tour. It's raw, honest, and real - designed for those who want to dive beneath the polished surface of everyday life in Tbilisi and Georgia. Be prepared to see the unseen, meet the unheard, and go where others won't. What You'll Experience 1. University Dormitories of IDPs. We'll start in the university district of Tbilisi, where you'll visit the university halls of residence where internally displaced persons (IDPs) from Abkhazia have taken up residence in former student hostels. These buildings are more than dormitories - they have become sanctuaries for families who fled the conflict decades ago. Today they struggle with overcrowding and dilapidation but also show incredible resilience. This glimpse into their daily lives provides a powerful narrative of a country scarred by history but full of hope. 2. Ride the Retro Cable Car. Next, you'll take a ride on the Retro Cable Car, a nostalgic piece of Tbilisi's past still used by locals as part of their daily routine. This charming relic of the Soviet era offers a simple yet powerful way to connect with the city's culture beyond the tourist hotspots. There's nothing glamorous about it - just an authentic ride that reflects the enduring spirit and history embedded in everyday life here. 3. Nutsubidze Skybridge and the high-rise blocks. We then head to residential areas that most tourists never see, including the iconic blocks connected by the Nutsubidze Skybridge. These high-rise complexes are connected by a sky bridge 70 meters above the ground, where everyday life goes on amid aging buildings and incredible views. If you're lucky, you might even meet the local worker who runs the lift and keeps everything running smoothly. They often have fascinating stories to tell about life in these towers and what it's like to work in this extraordinary environment. 4. The Abandoned Archaeological Museum. One of the more unique stops on the tour is the abandoned Museum of Archaeology. While it is generally not possible to enter the museum due to security restrictions, true urban explorers may be able to catch a glimpse of its fascinating underground spaces. These dungeons offer a rare perspective on Tbilisi's forgotten areas and provide an insight into the many layers of the city's past. 5. Former Ministry of Roads. Another highlight of our trip is the former Ministry of Roads, a striking example of Soviet-era architecture with its bold and unconventional design. With its interlocking structures and raw concrete form, this building is one of the most iconic examples of Brutalist architecture in Georgia. Although it no longer functions as a ministry, it remains a testament to the ambitious - and sometimes bold - architectural visions of its time. It is a must see for anyone interested in architecture, history or simply experiencing the unique character of Tbilisi. 6. Chronicles of Georgia Monument. We also explore the Chronicles of Georgia, a massive monument overlooking the city and offering stunning views of the Tbilisi Sea and surrounding urban areas. This impressive site often visited for its grandeur, also offers a fascinating perspective on Tbilisi's blend of past and future. From here you can see sprawling Soviet-era architecture set against the backdrop of newer developments, highlighting how Georgia balances its rich heritage with its aspirations for the future.   Why take this Brutal Tbilisi tour? This tour isn't about fancy photo opportunities - it's about the people who call this city home. You'll meet locals who face challenges every day, yet maintain a spirit of determination and hope. You'll see a Tbilisi that is gritty, complicated and beautiful in its rawness.
