TRIP REVIEWS (2)

Graig and Maria

We will never forget out trip to Belarus and Ukraine. These were two wonderful weeks full of interesting stories, spectacular architecture, delicious food and hospitable people. Arara made our trip unforgettable and took good care of us. Our travel agent Tatev was always attentive to our requests and needs. We loved our tour guides in both countries - Anna and Aleksey, who were so caring, punctual, intelligent and easy to deal with. The transportation was very comfortable; our group had a private minivan with air conditioning. The driver always took us as close to the sightseeing destinations as possible, which was very convenient, as we don’t like too many stairs and remote sites. We really appreciate the huge work Arara’s done and hope to travel with them again.

Our trip to Ukraine and Belarus was perfectly organized by Arara tours. We always wanted to visit these countries and decided to celebrate our anniversary there. Arara was responsible for the whole trip starting from airport transfers to our daily meals. They also organized a beautiful surprise dinner at our hotel for our anniversary day, thank you once again for that! We most of all liked Brest in Belarus with its captivating fortress and unbelievably beautiful Lviv in Ukraine, which I call a small Europe.

We will surely recommend Arara agency to our friends and will contact them for our future trips!
