# One day in Batumi: an itinerary in the best order

> One day in Batumi covers the sea, the old town and the view from above. In the morning — the moving Ali and Nino sculpture and a walk along the seaside boulevard. Then Europe Square with its bronze Medea and Golden Fleece, and the Italian-style Piazza with a tower and mosaics. After lunch — the Argo cable car up Mount Anuria above the port. Walks take 6–13 minutes.

## What to see in Batumi in one day

Every stop is in old Batumi or on the seafront, 6–13 minutes apart. The morning by the sea, midday in the old town, after lunch up on the Argo.

Remove any stop with the cross or drag it with ≡, and add another one nearby — the times recalculate.

## Batumi in the evening

From 19:00 Ali and Nino start moving: the figures come together and pass through each other in a cycle of about 10 minutes. In the warm season, roughly May to September–October, the [dancing fountains](https://yesgo.io/georgia/batumi/batumi-dancing-fountains) by Lake Ardagani start at about 21:00; they do not run in winter.

## Where to have lunch

Lunch in the plan is around Europe Square and the Piazza, in the old town.

## Is one day in Batumi enough?

For the town, yes. The [Botanical Garden](https://yesgo.io/georgia/batumi/batumi-botanical-garden) on Green Cape (25 GEL for foreigners) needs half a day, [Gonio Fortress](https://yesgo.io/georgia/batumi/gonio-fortress) is a Roman fort south of town, and [Makhuntseti Waterfall](https://yesgo.io/georgia/batumi/makhuntseti-waterfall) is a trip into the hills of Adjara — all in the 2- and 3-day itineraries.

## Tips

- Ali and Nino move every evening from 19:00.
- The dancing fountains run only in the warm season, at about 21:00.
- The Argo runs 10:00–22:00 — you can ride it at sunset too.
- Georgia uses the lari (GEL). Cards work in most cafés and shops; keep cash for markets and minibuses.
- The boulevard has cycle lanes and bike hire — you can ride part of the way.
