This place was supposed to be a highlight of Tbilisi, but it’s pretty disappointing. The staff is incredibly rude and makes you wait forever before you can get on the cable car. They decide to leave whenever they feel like it or when they’re done chatting among themselves. The cabins are cramped, making the ride uncomfortable. It gets 2 stars for being a unique experience, but be prepared to spend a lot of time here.

Шикарные виды на город с высоты канатной дороги. Кабинки хотя и не самые новые, но выглядят надежно. Возможно, придется постоять в очереди, но оплатить можно картой или телефоном.

ზოგჯერ მუშაობს, ზოგჯერ არა. არ არის საიმედო ტრანსპორტი.

عربة تلفريك قديمة تعود للحقبة السوفييتية، تأخذك مباشرة نحو بحيرة السلاحف. الموقع في الأعلى رائع، ويحتوي على مطاعم راقية تطل على البحيرة. هناك أنشطة مثل ركوب القوارب والتزحلق بالحبل. تكلفة الرحلة رمزية تشمل الذهاب والعودة، والمنظر من الأعلى مذهل.

Россияне утверждали, что они украинцы, и охранник без проверки пропустил их бесплатно. А подростков с велосипедами отругал и допустил на канатную дорогу с большими упрёками, как будто они не имели права на проезд.

The line was extremely long and exhausting, and we waited for nearly an hour.

უსისტემო მუშაობა. განრიგს ვერ გაიგებ, როდის წავა. შეიძლება უმიზეზოდ აიძულონ გელოდოთ 1 საათამდე.
