Batumi
You can talk about Batumi forever! One can travel there only for its unique scents! The main cocktail is the sea breeze combined with the aromas of pine resin, magnolia, oleander and citrus. And the fascinating sunsets and sunrises of the Black Sea coast conquer with their purity.
The city combines architecture in which some kind of eclecticism is felt, a mixture of styles and centuries, a shade of antiquity and modernity, traditions and originality, morality and libertinism.
Batumi is a center of entertainment and nightlife, a kind of Caucasian "Las Vegas". The city in which there is a lot of entertainment for any age:
dolphinarium, dancing fountains and attractions, open cafes and bars with live music, clubs and bungalows where the best DJs on the planet spin the disc, annual large-scale music festivals.
Calypso implements a tour “In the arms of the mountains and the smell of the sea in the taste” in this region of Georgia, as well as several excursions from Batumi with different activities.
Sights of Batumi
A Calypso tour in Batumi is an immersion into the eternal energy of the sea and mountains in that amazing combination, which is met only in Adjara.
The mythical place of the Golden Fleece, part of the Byzantine Empire, the Ottoman provincial town, the port of the Russian Empire, the seaside resort of Georgia - all closely intertwined in the history of Batumi, like the names of Nobel, Stalin, Rothschild, Chekhov, Gorky, Yesenin …
We stroll through the city, comprehending the harmony of the sea breeze and the sun, studying its sights. Piazza square in the Venetian style, the clock tower and a cup of fragrant Batumi coffee. One of the main attractions of Batumi is the majestic Cathedral of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary, made in the late Gothic style. The Cathedral has very beautiful stained glass windows that resemble the exteriors of French Cathedrals. Various museums, among which the most remarkable is “Adjara in Miniature”. We are going to visit Kemal Turmanidze, the founder of the first private ethnographic museum, where the whole exposition was collected by him with his own hands and where the life, character and traditions of the local population of Adjara are conveyed with so much love.
Batumi Boulevard - an unusually beautiful coastal park, a place of leisure for tourists and locals. The Boulevard has its own life, so characteristic of sea cities. And most importantly, unforgettable and fantastic stunning sunsets can be seen from Batumi Boulevard! So, during a relax tour, just linger on the beach and see the best sunset!
Calypso tours and excursions in Batumi also include a visit to the Byzantine fortress Petra, the brainchild of Emperor Justinian the Great, a unique Botanical Garden - a celebration of nature, enveloped in the freshness of the sea air. In the Botanical Garden you can spend the whole day enjoying the beauty of nature or go to the mountainous Adjara and see the unforgettable mountain landscapes of Georgia. As well as the former outpost of the Roman Empire, Gonio Apsaros, Tamara Bridge and many other famous sights of Adjara.
