Contact us
Step back into the 19th century with a guided visit to the Romanov Palace in Likani — once a summer residence for Russian royalty. This private half-day tour combines history, nature, and local storytelling, starting with a comfortable ride from Borjomi to the palace grounds and continuing through the iconic mineral springs park.
Our local drivers can offer basic historical context, or you can choose to add a licensed guide for deeper insights into the Romanovs, Georgian nobility, and how Borjomi became a wellness retreat for the elite.
Built in the late 1800s, the Romanov Palace in Likani was a favorite retreat of Grand Duke Nicholas, featuring unique architectural blends and elegant interiors. While full interior access is limited, the grounds and exterior views offer a fascinating glimpse into royal life. Nearby, you’ll also see the old Romanov greenhouse and park remnants.
After the palace, your tour continues through Borjomi Central Park — home to the town’s legendary mineral waters. Taste from the spring, stroll tree-lined paths, and explore the original spa structures that made Borjomi famous across the Russian Empire. Your driver can guide you informally or stay nearby while you explore.
This half-day cultural tour runs year-round and lasts approximately 3 to 4 hours. Tours start at $70 per vehicle (up to 6 people), with guide upgrade available. Great for history lovers, photographers, and anyone interested in Georgia’s imperial legacy. Pickup available from any Borjomi hotel or guesthouse.
Let a local driver guide you through Borjomi’s royal and spa-town legacy — from Romanov gardens to famous mineral springs. Choose a relaxed walk or full cultural tour with historical guide. Book today to experience the quieter, grander side of Borjomi.
The palace itself is not always open for interior tours, but the grounds, gardens, and historical features are publicly accessible year-round. Your driver can guide you around the estate or wait while you explore.
Not necessarily — our drivers can give local context, but if you're interested in detailed imperial history or architecture, a licensed guide can be added on request.
Most tours take 3–4 hours including both the palace grounds and Central Park. Timing is flexible depending on your pace and interest level.
It’s a mix of both: a comfortable drive to Likani and Central Park, with walking time at each site. Total walking can be adjusted to suit your preference.
