Trip Highlight: Our guide, Ani Hayryan, was just an amazing person. The beauty of Armenia and Georgia cannot be written in just a few words.
Would you add to trip: Nagorno Karabakh definitely
Guide: Ani is a very intelligent and professional guide. Ani knows what she is talking about from the churches, to the landscape to the Armenian history. Her knowledge of the English language is impeccable and she was able to show us and tell us everything we needed to know. She is an AMAZING person and anyone who has Ani as their guide is extremely lucky. Gio was also a very good guide with good driving skills (albeit a little bit too fast) that took us up to Kazbegi safe and sound

Driver: Mr. Ashot in Armenia was a true professional being able to maneuver those pot holes on the Armenian roads. He drove safely and got us there on time. Gio was our driver/guide
Cars: Both cars were in great condition
Would you recommend our company? Of course and YES!! Thank you to ARATOUR for their great service. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip.

Dear Araratour Manager:
My wife and I wish to thank Araratour for organizing our recent successful trip to Armenia. In particular, we wish to thank and recognize your excellent employee Ms. Lusine Masuryan for her professional work, attention to details and her follow-up. She was truly one of the best travel executives we dealt with in our lifetime of travel. Ms. Masuryan responded on time to over 35 emails and offered workable solutions to our needs. Part of the success of the trip is owed to her excellent ability to respond to our needs. Another person who deserves credit is Ms. Anna who was our guide. I know that she is a freelancer and not part of Araratour, but she was an incredible source about Armenia and its history. Anna and her driver were punctual, helpful and excellent sources about your lovely country. I will recommend your agency to my friends and mention it on Trip Advisor soon.
Best wishes,
Randa and Badran

What did you like best about your trip? We had a great time in Yerevan and we left with great memories. Tour guides were great. Execursions were great.
What didn't you like about the trip? The hotel in Georgia. We were promised that the hotels will be walking distance from restaurants and shops. In Georgia the hotel was located in a dodgy area far from everything. It was dark at night and we could not leave the hotel. We were told everything is 10 minutes walking distance. When we confronted the tour guide she said they actually meant 10 minutes by car. I'm highly disappointed and will definitely NOT recommend Arara tours due to this.
What would you add to your trip? Get a better partner in Georgia and select your hotels based on what tourists need and not the cheapest so you can make more profit. in the long run this will damage your reputation as guests will warn other potential guests about this
Guide: Guides were excellent, no complaints regarding them.
Driver: Drivers were good as well
Car: Excellent
Hotels: as stated before - hotel in Georgia were highly disappointed. Location is terrible - far away from restaurants, shops. located in a dark dodgy suburb.
Would you recommend our company to your friends? Defenitely NOT - based on the misleading information about the hotel in Georgia.
AraraTour's response: Thank you, dear George, for your feedback! We highly appreciate your opinion and won't cooperate with this hotel anymore.

My sincere thanks to you for organising my holiday to Armenia, Artsakh and Iran. I had the trip of a lifetime! I am very fortunate to have seen so many wonderful places and experienced the culture of all countries.
I very much enjoyed Narek’s company, he has a deep knowledge and appreciation of Armenia and Artsask’s history, culture and historical sights. I am very thankful for his service as a fantastic guide and I cannot recommend him highly enough.
Thank you for your work in arranging my Iranian visa, I had no issues with crossing the border. It was great to see Iran again! I particularly loved Masouleh and Rudkhan Castle. I was pleased to see that Iran has improved since I was last there 3 years ago as the society seems more organised and relaxed, perhaps with the new president. I was extremely surprised to see the American Embassy is now open as a museum, last time it was closed and guarded. I highly recommend the American Embassy as a must see in Tehran!
Armenia and Artsakh are incredibly beautiful countries with interesting history, strong tradition and warm and kind people. I was particularly taken with the natural scenery of Lake Sevan, Areni/Norovank Monastery and Gandzasar Monastery. I will return to Armenia, hopefully in the near future, to see Artsakh again and northern Armenia. In the meantime I will be promoting Armenia as a terrific and ‘must see’ holiday destination and will refer all interested to AraraTour.
Many thanks for making my holiday materialise, organising my requested additions to the itinerary and arranging transportation to and from the airport. It is hard returning back to work and reality after an incredible holiday! Nonetheless, it was truly the trip of a life time and I have many wonderful memories to think back on.
Cheers and all the very best,
Zachery Biddles
