Samtsevrisi church of Saint George
The Samtsevrisi church of Saint George is an early medieval Georgian Orthodox church in the village of Samtsevrisi, Kareli Municipality, in Georgia's region of Shida Kartli. It is a "free-cross" plan church and stylistically dated to the first half of the 7th century. The church is inscribed on the list of the Immovable Cultural Monuments of National Significance of Georgia.
Kintsvisi Monastery
Kintsvisi Monastery is a Georgian Orthodox monastery on a forested slope of a high mountain of the Dzama valley. Its main church is an exceptional example of a brick church from the Georgian Golden Age period. The monumental mural is one of the largest among the Medieval Georgian artistic ensembles. The Kintsvisi Monastery complex consists of three churches. The central (main) central church dedicated to St Nicholas is thought to date to the early 13th century, in what is generally regarded as the Georgian Golden Age. Its dating was possible due to the presence on the murals of the figures of three Georgian kings of that period. A very small chapel standing next to it is dedicated to St George, and dates from around the same time.

Our group really enjoyed exploring Santiago’s vibrant bar scene, starting with a taste of the infamous terremoto, which was surprisingly refreshing. As we moved from pub to pub, we savored artisanal beers that showcased local flavors and learned about the craft behind each drink. The opportunity to sample pisco alongside friendly locals added a layer of authenticity to the experience. Transportation was efficient, though a bit cramped at times, which made the journey feel slightly rushed between venues. Overall, it was a fun evening filled with laughter and new discoveries.

We had a fantastic time exploring the vibrant bar scene in Santiago with our family. One unforgettable highlight was trying the Terremoto; its unique mix of flavors had us all laughing and savoring each sip. The artisan beers we tasted showcased the local craft scene beautifully, and our guide made sure we felt at home in every pub we visited. The transportation between stops was smooth, which kept the energy up and allowed us to really soak in the atmosphere. If there’s one thing we’d suggest, it would be to allow a bit more time at each location to fully enjoy the ambiance! Overall, this experience was a wonderful way to dive into the location’s culture.

Sipping on a terremoto while chatting with locals at a cozy pub was a highlight of my evening in Santiago—it truly encapsulated the city’s vibrant spirit. I wish I had spent a bit more time at each stop to really savor each artisanal beer and pisco, but overall, the experience was a delightful journey through the local bar scene.

The experience was an enjoyable exploration of local flavors, especially the unique Terremoto drink that was a highlight for me. I appreciated the variety of artisan beers and the chance to try pisco in a relaxed pub atmosphere, where the staff were genuinely friendly and knowledgeable. Transportation between venues was convenient, keeping the mood lively throughout the four hours. One suggestion would be to include a bit more background on the drinks and their origins, which I think would enhance the experience even further. Overall, it was a memorable evening well spent indulging in local tastes.
