Entrance to the courtyard and interior is usually free, though small donations are appreciated; guided tours or temporary exhibits may charge a small fee. Save money by combining the visit with a self-guided Old Tbilisi walking loop rather than paid tours.

Consejos de expertos
- Dress modestly, cover shoulders and avoid loud clothing when entering the church.
- Head up at sunrise or late afternoon to avoid tour groups and catch the best light for photos.
- Take photos from the riverbank and the platform near the Vakhtang Gorgasali statue for wide panoramas, bring a wide-angle lens.
- Check posted service times to avoid disrupting worship; the courtyard is pleasant for a stroll even during services.
