I went to Georgia with my brother and his family and we are so lucky that we have chosen Arara. Shatill’s ancient towers wowed us, and Ardoti’s village vibe was a perfect escape. In general, the trip rocked! We took lots of pictures which will always remind us about those amazing days.

Me and my friend spent an amazing time in Georgia during our short but adventurous trip. It was fun to see Shatili and its unique architectural styles. In addition to enjoying the breathtaking scenes of the country, we were satisfied with the choice of hotels and guesthouses. Some of the guesthouses were family run, which was exactly what we wanted to experience. One thing I would note is choose wisely when to travel to this area. The weather might let you down. Our guide Tazo and driver Giorgi were friendly and helpful. Giorg helped us with our luggage every time and remained a professional during the heavy city traffic or comprehensive routes. I will recommend your company and using your services.
