Traveler’s Feedback

Thanks Hasmik for providing a smooth and trouble-free travel experience. When my flight was delayed, you were quick to respond and efficiently rearranged my airport transfer. This tour was an incredible journey through Armenia's ancient history and natural beauty. A highly recommended, unforgettable experience!

Thank you Ruslan, this tour was an incredible adventure! We explored ancient monasteries, tasted delicious food, and met warm-hearted locals. A great way to uncover Armenian heritage and make lasting memories. Highly recommend it!

Thanks Hasmik for organizing a tour of Armenia for us! Your country is a country with an incredibly rich history, and this tour allowed us to dive deep into it. The ancient monasteries, fortresses, and religious sites were awe-inspiring. Learning about the country's history, particularly the Armenian Genocide, was both emotional and educational. There was an issue that arose during the tour as related to weather conditions. When we had planned to revisit Khor Virap for the stunning view of Mount Ararat, we were met with unseasonably cloudy and overcast weather. The cloudy skies obstructed our view of Mount Ararat, which was a little disappointing. We cannot stop sharing our fantastic journey with our friends. Thank you for the great experience!

Hi Ruslan, we are overall very satisfied with the tour. The locals in both countries were warm and welcoming. We felt like we were part of their communities, and we made some wonderful memories. The traditional food was a real delight, and we tried some unique dishes that we'll always remember. I also want to mention that there was a big accident on our way to Tatev but our driver was able to skillfully bypass the traffic. Our drivers and guides were great in both countries.

Hello Tatev,we are finally back home after the long flights.  Armenia and Georgia are beautiful countries, and we got to see stunning landscapes, historic churches, and charming villages. The tour guides were knowledgeable and made history come alive for us. But, if there's one thing that bothered us a bit, it was the traffic in Yerevan, the capital of Armenia. It can get quite busy, especially during rush hours, and that made some parts of our city tours a bit slow. However, this is a minor issue compared to the overall experience. The highlight of our trip was the wine tasting. Both Armenia and Georgia have a long history of winemaking, and we got to taste some exceptional wines.

Thank you Arara for organizing this amazing tour for me! Both countries offer delicious cuisine, warm hospitality, breathtaking landscapes, and rich culture! So if you are thinking of traveling to Armenia and Georgia, I absolutely recommend it. Our guide Sophie in Georgia and Raffi in Armenia were just amazing, both very organized and nice. Also, thanks to my tour manager Sati who kindly joined me for dinner on my last free day in Yerevan. We had a nice time there and talked for a few hours. It’s always nice to meet locals when you travel. Thanks for amazing memories!

Thanks Ruslan for helping us throughout our whole journey. My two-week adventure in Armenia and Georgia was a true voyage of discovery. I really liked our tour guides in both counties. Ia in Georgia and Vardan in Armenia were both really knowledgeable and helpful. They also recommended really good restaurants for dinners. The walk from the Georgia to Armenia border took longer than expected, but it was totally worth it.

Hello Hasmik, thanks for organizing this tour! My sister and I enjoyed both countries. Both Armenia and Georgia offer delicious cuisine, warm hospitality, and breathtaking landscapes. Armenia's Lake Sevan and Georgia's Paravani are just a few more of the many highlights. Our accommodations were also really good, I am glad we upgraded to 4 star hotels. Thank you for your help to book this tour!

I spent 14 incredible days exploring Armenia and Georgia, and I must say it was a truly unforgettable experience. These two countries, nestled in the South Caucasus, offer a unique blend of history, culture, and natural beauty.  A highlight of my visit in Armenia was Karahunj, a mysterious ancient observatory located in the beautiful countryside. Vardzia in Georgia was an absolute gem. This cave monastery complex is a marvel of architecture and faith. Great journey, highly recommend traveling with Arara.

Ok, I thought that the tour was great. I really loved Baku, the monastaries of Georgia and Armenia. I think I enjoyed the feeling of Georgia and Armenia a lot. The tour covered a lot and I really enjoyed most of the places we went to. The only place I found difficult was the Manuscript museum in Yerevan. The guide spoke very quickly without giving us a chance to take a break and look at things. The contents were beautiful and the guide was very passionate about it, but it was a bit much to listen to.

I loved the walking tours of Baku and Tbilisi and the national Museum in Yerevan, the Cascades and the Genocide Museum. 

One thing that was different was that lunches were at 4:00. That didn't bother me, but it took time to have lunch. Anna often suggested that we buy lunch on the way or stop at food courts, which gave us more time for the tours and we were able to get back to the hotel earlier on some days.

The guides
Svetlana was very knowledgeable and was enthusiastic, but she tended to try and do too much. If one person wanted to stop for coffee, the rest of the tour group got a bit annoyed. She also went to change money and didn't come back for an hour. Her intentions were good, and it certainly didn't spoil the tour, but it meant that we had to rush through the afternoon part of the tour.

My main bit of feedback for Svetlana would be to learn everyone's name and to communicate to the group what is going on. E.g. We are stopping here for a toilet break.

Otherwise she was good.

Luca had a great sense of humour and communicated clearly. He was very passionate about Georgia and loved his food and wine. He did a great job. 

One bit of feedback would be asking the group when they wanted lunch so we could book somewhere beforehand. Or on busy days, suggest that we get something to snack on. 

He was knowledgeable, helpful and friendly and really made our trip enjoyable.

Anna was excellent. She had excellent knowledge and communicated well. She looked after us well. She didn't have Luca's sense of humour, but she responded well and was a fantastic guide.

Overall it was a fantastic trip. The hotels were clean and serviceable, the content was just right and the guides were helpful.

When I was talking with the other members of the group, they mentioned they would like more free time to explore Yerevan or Tbilisi (we had some time in Baku).

Thank you once again. I had a wonderful time.

Our trip to Armenia, Georgia, and Uzbekistan was fantastic. Our guides were especially great; the itinerary was well organized. The only thing was that all the cuisines had lot an of dishes that had meat in them, and even though I am not technically vegetarian, I prefer not to eat meat. I told this to our tour manager and he was able to organize my lunches and dinners accordingly for the rest of the tour.

I went on a solo private trip to Armenia, Georgia, and Uzbekistan. The countries are so unique and off the beaten track. Armenia had awesome monasteries, Georgia had tasty wine and cool old towns, and Uzbekistan had amazing ancient buildings. I had a blast! If you like history and tasty food, go check them out.
