Dear Zara, Thank you for organising a fantastic trip for me. The itinerary was great for getting a first impression of the region and I will come back to explore at a slower pace more in depth. The guides were all great, but Ani, our guide in Armenia, deserves a special mention. She was the one of best guides I had anywhere throughout my 40-odd years of travelling!
Kind regards,
Bernd
Can’t believe we finally could make this trip. We planned to travel to Georgia and Armenia back in 2020 but the pandemic cancelled all of our plans. Finally we were able to travel in April after getting the vaccine.
Armenia turned out to be an absolute delight. The history and the journey this country has gone through is terrifying. It’s beauty has no limits, we were enchanted by the nature and views in Dilijan, the breathtaking Khor virap and Hagpat monasteries...
The services are of high quality, the hotel was very good located, near Cascade complex, all the sites nearby and easy to reach.
Georgia was a country of contrasts and captivating beauty. We very much liked Telavi, the cozy wine town where we had a memorable excursion to the Kareba Winery. This was an experience to remember.
As for the guides, both Ani and Tazo were amazing. Very professional, hard working and enthusiastic young people who would make you fall in love with their countries.
Thank you Arara team for organizing our holidays in your special region.
We had a private tour to Caucasus with Arara organized just for the three of us! Everything was organized at high level, the guides were brilliant with good command of English and knowledge of their countries. Ani in Armenia was very professional, pleasant and comfortable to be with throughout the whole touring in Armenia. Sophie in Georgia was just exceptional!! Altay in Azerbaijan did a great job with an individual approach to all of us. We had a private coach with very safe drivers.
We liked almost all the hotels we stayed in, particularly the locations were great giving us freedom of exploring the cities ourselves after the tours.
We are very early planners and started the preparations of the tour back in March. And Tatev was very responsive and professional to our requests during all those months.
We have already recommended Arara to our friends and hope to travel with them again. The trip was surely one to remember!!
