Geofrey Scott

My friends and I had an amazing 8 days in Armenia. The tour was well organized, we communicated with Hasmik and she was very responsive and helpful all the way. Our guide Ani ensured we were comfortable and well-informed every step of the way. The drive on the cable car was impressive and we absolutely enjoyed the Armenian food. The itinerary was well-paced, allowing us to fully appreciate each destination without feeling rushed. I highly recommend Arara for anyone looking to explore the beauty and culture of Armenia.
