TRIP REVIEWS (2)

Samuel Adams

We had an amazing time with our tour coordinator and guide. They were so kind, friendly and responsible that we’ve decided to use their service next time when we will visit 3 Caucasus countries: Armenia, Georgia and Azerbaijan. The tour was well-organized and we loved exploring the part of Tbilisi.

Antony Santos

The tour that I chose to visit Georgia was an excellent mix of cultural immersion and outdoor adventure which covered many different sights and activities, like exploring the ancient Uplistsikhe cave. We visited traditional villages and monasteries, hiked through the breathtaking landscapes I've ever seen and tried delicious Georgian food. The only problem that I dealt with was the shower in the hotel. Overall, I will recommend to book with Arara Tour for your future trips!
