Arie Fourie

Hallo Ruslan We are back in South Africa. Thank you very much for all your effort in organising a perfect holiday. We had a very special time. The guides and hotels were very good. We had no negative experiences.

Paul and Janet Brown

We had a 17 day tour to the Caucasus last month and really felt regret heading back to our country. The
tour gave us many unforgettable memories, and even the broken conditioner in the hotel in Tbilisi
couldn’t spoil the highly positive impression we had as the hotel staff quickly managed the issue. Earnest
thanks to Arara tours for such a great experience!

David Johnson

Had an amazing journey to three Caucasian countries with Arara tours. The tour was planned thoroughly,
the itinerary was quite smooth and covered many breathtaking and interesting sights. The only problem
was periodically heavy traffic in Yerevan and Tbilisi, especially in peak hours, but it’s not a really big
deal as the hotels were centrally located. We enjoyed the evening walks around the capitals.
Special highlights of the trip were the guides, Inna, Luka and Raffi.
