Traveler’s Feedback

I thought the tour was amazing, taking in the best sights possible in the number of days available. The vehicles were comfortable, the drivers just the best. Both guides ensured that everything went smoothly, they were always on time and were able to answer questions on just about anything.

The hotel in Tbilisi, Brosse Gardens, was very nice as were the staff. The breakfast buffet was excellent. The hotel in Yerevan, Felinger was quite a long walk from Liberty square. However, the staff were lovely as was the buffet breakfast. There was the bonus of being able to see Mount Ararat from the restaurant which was probably not the case from the 4 star hotel nearer the town centre.

Without hesitation I would recommend visiting Georgia and Armenia with Arara. From my first contact, I felt I was dealing with professionals. My emails were responded to immediately. I cannot thank everyone enough. I loved every minute of my time in Georgia and Armenia.

Hello Sati,

I am now safely back home after the incredible trip to the Caucuses with Arara Tours. The whole trip was fantastic. With the most amazing tour guides with great knowledge of their countries. The sites we saw were varied and incredible. Everything was so well organised from the airport pickup, hotels, guides, transport, planning of daily excursions. Even the land border crossings were perfectly organised between the guides. It went above and beyond expectations. Three incredible countries with so much in common and yet massive differences. I will highly recommend this trip to everyone. Thank you so much for your help, support and great communication. Thank you to the team at Arara for working so hard and making this the most incredible trip.

With best wishes,

Pamela McEwen

I joined the 31-day tour across CA and Caucauses and I must say it was an unforgettable journey. The itinerary was very well organized and covered so many unique places. Each country had a local guide, and most of them were very professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. I especially want to thank our guide in Uzbekistan, she was extremely kind and explained everything with so much passion. The Georgian guide also had a great sense of humor, and we felt very welcome. Our driver was careful and punctual, and we felt safe the whole time even during long drives like the one from Darvaza to Khiva. The vehicle was always clean and comfortable. During the tour we had a small issue in our hotel room where there was a problem in the bathroom, but our tour manager Ani managed and solved that problem by changing our hotel room in Uzbekistan. Overall, it was a once-in-a-lifetime experience and I’m happy I joined. Thank you to the whole team for making this trip so special!

Hi Inga, I have returned home safely. This 31-day tour was a real adventure. I visited 8 countries, and every place was special. The tour manager Inga did a great job, she helped before and during the tour and was always ready to answer questions. The local guides were professional and shared a lot of interesting stories. I especially liked the guides in Azerbaijan and Armenia. The drivers were polite, always on time, and drove safely even in the mountains. There was one hard border crossing in Central Asia, but besides that, everything was very well planned. I recommend this tour to anyone who wants to explore this beautiful part of the world with good organization and care.

When I first started communicating with Arara about the Silk Road and Caucasus tour, I honestly couldn’t imagine how a 31-day trip across 8 countries would work. It sounded too long, too complex, and I was a bit unsure if everything could really go smoothly. But from Day 1, I understood that booking this tour with Arara was the right decision. From the beginning, everything was very well-organized. Our tour manager Ani was amazing, she answered all my questions before the trip, helped me with the visa information, and stayed in touch during the tour. I felt like we were really taken care of. Whenever there was a small question or request, Ani responded fast and solved everything without stress. The guides in each country were very knowledgeable and friendly. I especially enjoyed the guide in Armenia Rafi, who was not only professional but also had a great sense of humor. The drivers were excellent, always on time, and very careful on the road. Some of them didn’t speak English, but they were always smiling and trying to help. The itinerary was full but well-balanced. It’s not easy to travel through 8 countries in one trip, but Arara managed it perfectly. The border crossings, transportation, hotels, and sightseeing were all well-managed. Thank you to Ani and the whole Arara team for creating such an unforgettable journey. I would recommend this tour to anyone who wants a real adventure with professional support.

This 31-day journey through Central Asia and the Caucasus was absolutely unforgettable! I was amazed by how well-organized the whole trip was, covering CA 5 countries, Azerbaijan, Georgia, and Armenia. Our tour manager Florena was excellent from the beginning. She answered all my questions quickly and explained every detail clearly before the trip. During the tour, she also checked to make sure everything was going well. I felt taken care of. The local guides were very professional and knowledgeable. I especially enjoyed our guide in Uzbekistan, his storytelling in Samarkand and Bukhara made history come alive. Also, Rafi in Armenia was very kind and flexible, always ready to help and show us more than what was planned. Our drivers were skilled and safe, even when driving on narrow mountain roads. The vehicles were always clean and comfortable. Thank you for an amazing adventure! I will recommend this tour to all my friends. 

The tour was amazing! I saw so many countries and everything was well organized. Our tour manager Sati helped us before and during the trip, very kind and fast to reply. I liked our guide in Georgia, Nino, the most because she explained everything with passion. Drivers were always on time and polite. Thank you for an unforgettable month!

We had been planning our Central Asia adventure with Arara Tours after we had finished our tour in Caucauses with Arara. The Central Asia tour is probably hard for us. We didn’t know much about the region beforehand, and organizing a multi-country tour seemed complicated at first.  but after seeing their professionalism in the Caucuses tour, we have decided that we need to book it with Arara.

Hasmik, our tour coordinator at Arara, was incredibly helpful from the beginning. She guided us through the entire process with care and patience and stayed in touch even during the trip to make sure everything was going smoothly. From start to finish, the experience was unforgettable. Our guides throughout the journey were kind, professional, and very knowledgeable. The only part that was a bit difficult was the border crossing into Turkmenistan, where we had to wait for document checks. It took some time, but everything was handled professionally by our guide and the Arara team.

This trip gave us so much more than we expected. We’re already planning our next adventure with Arara , this time to Mongholia, which has been on our bucket list for a long time!

Dear Ani, I am at home. This was my first time in Central Asia, and the experience far exceeded my expectations. The mixture of ancient Silk Road cities, vibrant bazaars was simply stunning. My favorite part was spending a night in a yurt by Issyk Kul Lake. Maria, our guide, was calm, knowledgeable,  SHe took the time to explain traditions and history, and was patient with all our questions and needs. Ani, our tour manager kept us informed every step of the way. Her professionalism made a potentially stressful situation easy to handle. Overall, this trip was a great less-explored part of the world. The combination of well-planned logistics, warm guides, and authentic experiences made it a journey which is unforgettable,

Traveling through five Central Asian countries in one trip sounds hard, but Arara’s team made it easy and fun. The trip had a good mix of famous Silk Road cities like Samarkand and Bukhara, and beautiful nature places like the Seven Lakes and Issyk Kul Lake. The Darvaza gas crater was amazing. Our guide Timur was the best part of the trip. He loves the region and told us interesting stories at every stop. He was very kind and made sure everyone was comfortable. He even helped with taking photos and kept the group happy. The tour manager, Ani,is very kind and helpful. She took care of hotels, and all the details. She answered our questions quickly and kept us updated. The only problem was a very long drive through the roads. Some people were tired. But we stopped often, enjoyed the beautiful views, and the bus was very comfortable, so it was okay. If you want an exciting trip with history, culture, and nature, this tour is great.

This was a special journey. The tour manager, Hasmik stayed in touch daily, checking on our comfort and making sure everything ran smoothly. We did have a hotel in Bukhara, with the air condition not working, but Hasmik resolved it quickly by upgrading us the next night. Excellent customer service. I’ll be back for another trip with Arara!

An unforgettable adventure! I also want to highlight the exceptional work of the guides and drivers, who ensured our trip was smooth and enjoyable. Our guides were knowledgeable, funny, and attentive. Our tour manager, Sati, was always available and incredibly helpful, she even arranged a birthday cake for one of the group members!

I just returned from the Highlights of Armenia and Georgia tour, and it honestly felt like the tour of a lifetime. From the moment I landed in Yerevan, everything was perfectly organized. The team at Arara was professional, responsive, and thoughtful, I felt well taken care of from day one. Each day brought something new and unforgettable: walking through ancient monasteries like Echmiadzin and Geghard, tasting wine in Areni, and riding the Wings of Tatev. Crossing into Georgia felt seamless, and the energy of Tbilisi gave the trip a new rhythm.The guides in both Armenia and Georgia were outstanding , knowledgeable, passionate, and kind. Rafi is a very special guide, who is specific. The transportation was comfortable, the accommodations were lovely.

If you’re looking for more than a typical tour, this is it. I’m so grateful to Arara for making it all happen. Highly recommended, I’ll never forget this trip.
