In times of danger, precious relics from Mtskheta, including Saint Nino’s Cross, were brought here for safekeeping. During the Soviet Era, soviets prohibited religious services, but the church remained a popular tourist destination. The church is an active establishment of the Georgian Orthodox and Apostolic Church. You will get an epic panoramic view of the whole valley from the church.

Wonderful experience - We were looking for a trustworthy guide to take us for one day trip to Kazbegi and went with Nugo after a recommendation from a friend. We’re so glad we did because it was a great experience. Seamlessly coordinated with him over WhatsApp and decided to get the airport pick up and drop done by him as well. We found him to be an extremely reliable, knowledgeable, punctual, safe and entertaining guide. The place was beautiful and we’d highly recommend booking through him and his team. Definitely going to head back to Georgia at some point again to explore more and will not think twice about who to approach to show us around.

Nice trip, be wary of what is included - Our guide Omar was amazing. He was very knowledgeable and gave great recommendations of places to eat and things to do around Tbilisi. He was very attentive and personable. We stopped for bathroom breaks and snacks along the way. The scenery was beautiful and the drive wasn’t bad at all with all the stops. The only thing I felt like I was tricked about was paying 60 GEL on the way to the church and on the way back down. The description said ALL transportation was included in the final price. It was disappointing this was not disclosed by the tour.
