I wish to thank you and Arara for our wonderful tour. Everything went smoothly from our pick-up at Baku Airport till our final transfer to Yerevan Airport. All hotels were good, with many exceeding our expectations. All 3 guides - Rugiya, Ira & Raffi - were excellent and they clearly enjoyed showing off their countries. It was a pleasure to meet them and we learned a lot. The drivers were also good and helpful. We visited many interesting places and created many memories. Possibly a few too many churches/monasteries for our liking, but we knew that in advance and appreciate how important they are to the history of the Caucasus. We were also fortunate to have a good group and we all mixed well.  Overall rating 10 out of 10. As to the future, we are thinking of visiting Central Asia (5 Stans) next year. I know Arara offer a 19 day tour but ideally we would like a slightly longer tour. Maybe we could add a few days on at either end like we did this year or do a little tour on our own before joining the tour. If we wanted to proceed, would we contact you, or is there someone else who is the contact for those tours.

Hi Hasmik,

Thanks so much for the best service and communication pre-tour and during the tour checking with me all the time, we couldn’t have been cared for more. All the guides were wonderful, sites were great, the drivers were good and careful. Though I was shocked how fast the driving was in Georgia and Azerbaijan, but our drivers were driving very well.

I am very glad I chose this trip to cover as much as possible. We thoroughly enjoyed the 3 Caucasus countries and the sites. The group members were also great and lovely people.

I had a wonderful time!

This was our first time visiting the Caucasus, and the 17-day tour could not have been a better choice. The itinerary was excellent, quite packed but every site worth visiting. Our guide in Azerbaijan – Svetlana was amazing, Sophie in Georgia was a very lovely and helpful guide, and finally Raffi in Armenia was terrific.

We loved Armenia the most. Hope we can return one day.
