About the road from Tbilisi International Airport (TBS) to Sighnaghi
Tbilisi Airport to Sighnaghi is about 99 km and takes close to 2 hours. The road runs east out of the city and into Kakheti, Georgia's main wine region, crossing the Gombori range or following the flatter Sagarejo route depending on conditions. Sighnaghi sits on a hillside above the Alazani valley behind almost intact 18th-century walls, looking across to the Greater Caucasus — on a clear day the wall of peaks is the whole horizon. Coming straight from the airport works well because the town is small enough to settle into on arrival day, and the vineyards start immediately below it.
Tips for this trip
If you land in the morning you can be having lunch in Sighnaghi with a view over the valley — it is one of the better first days in Georgia. Bodbe Monastery is two kilometres before the town and is worth the short stop; tell the driver when you book rather than deciding en route. The town is built on a slope and the cobbles are uneven, so wheeled luggage is awkward — ask to be dropped as close to your guesthouse as the lanes allow. Autumn, during the rtveli grape harvest, is the busiest time and rooms go early.
