Batumi Bliss: Seaside Wonders and Mountain Marvels Tour
Batumi is a seaside region of Georgia and one of the most popular summer destinations for both visitors and locals. We suggest spending at least 3 days in Batumi to cover the main points and extend your holiday to a beach vacation according to your preferences.
For the first day, we recommend taking a short city tour of Batumi. The central area is relatively small and won't take long to cover. The tour starts at Piazza Square, then moves to the Church of St. Nicholas. The next stops include Europe Square and the statue of Medea. Afterward, proceed to the Batumi Drama Theater. Following that, the group can visit the dancing fountain and take a stroll down the boulevard. Then, visit the moving statues of Ali & Nino and Batumi Port. Later in the same day, consider taking a walk in the Batumi Botanical Garden, located 9 km from the center of Batumi. The garden, recently covered with Kolkheti-type forest (beech, chestnut, and linden) and evergreen sub-forest, features century-old parks and unique collections of subtropical flora, including succulents, palms, roses, camellias, citrus, bamboos, magnolias, cypresses, pine trees, nuts, persimmons, and maples.
For the next day, we recommend starting with a morning beach break. Later in the morning, visit Mtsvane Kontskhi to enjoy the beautiful views and have some free time to swim on one of Batumi's purest beaches. In the afternoon, after lunch, you can visit Makhuntseti Waterfall in the Keda region, around half an hour's drive to the inner mountains from Batumi. Here, you'll witness a 40-meter-long waterfall in the mountains of Adjara. The Stone Arch Bridge of Makhuntseti, dating back to the 14th century, is located very close to the waterfall. The bridge, large and relying on natural rock piers, was completely reconstructed in 2008.
Batumi also hosts numerous festivals during the summer, ranging from pop music to high-quality jazz festivals.
