16:30 Prometheus Cave
Duration: 1 hour 15 minutes
We visit Kumistavi (Prometheus Cave), the most magnificent cave in Georgia. Kumistavi owes a famous Caucasian myth about Amirani for the sonorous naming of the “Cave of Prometheus.” The legend says that Amirani, like Prometheus, angered the Gods and was punished brutally. Days and nights, the eagle tormented him eating his liver; however, in contrast to the Greek giant, cruel Gods chained Amirani not to the rock but somewhere inside a massive cave. Presumably, it is in Kumistavi. Khvamli Mountain is visible from Prometheus Cave, where the legend says that Prometheus was chained. The cave has spectacular views of stalactites, stalagmites, petrified waterfalls, underground rivers, and lakes. The cave has colorful lights, ranging from orange and red to pink and blue. You have two options to enjoy with an impressive cave tour. You may choose a walking tour along the 1600m route or a boat ride along the underground river.
