I just returned from the “Exquisite Caucasus” trip and it was exceptional! The tour provided a perfect blend of Armenia’s ancient churches, Georgia’s beautiful vineyards, and Azerbaijan’s unique landscapes. Ani, our tour manager, was fantastic and every detail was handled seamlessly. Highlights for me were the world’s longest cable car ride and the mystical mud volcanoes. The local guides, especially Ani, were friendly and informative. This trip offered an unforgettable experience in a fascinating region. I would absolutely recommend it!

Our 16-day “Exquisite Caucasus” tour was a memorable adventure for our family of four. From Yerevan to Baku, every moment was thoughtfully planned by Arara Tours and our wonderful travel manager, Sati. Armenia’s ancient wonders, such as the Khor Virap monastery and the stunning views from Noravank, were awe-inspiring. Our guide, Narek, was passionate and made the ancient history come alive. Georgia’s diverse landscapes were equally impressive. The charming wine town of Sighnaghi and the scenic drive through Gudauri to Trinity Church were highlights. We also enjoyed exploring the caves and ancient monasteries in the region. Tbilisi, with its vibrant culture and beautiful architecture, was a personal favorite. In Azerbaijan, the mix of historical and modern sights was fascinating. We were amazed by the Gobustan petroglyphs. Every aspect of the trip was handled with care, from our comfortable accommodations to the friendly guides. Sati’s attention to detail and her willingness to accommodate our requests made the experience seamless and enjoyable. This tour was an extraordinary journey through the Caucasus, offering a perfect blend of history, culture, and natural beauty. It was an enriching experience for our family, and we couldn’t have asked for a better travel adventure!

I came back from the tour and the tour was great. My 8-day trip with Uncover Armenia was a remarkable experience. The tour included a perfect mix of historical sites. Taking the longest cable car ride to Tatev Monastery was a personal highlight. The tour was well-organized, and our guide Rafi was very knowledgeable. However, I felt that the itinerary could have allowed for a bit more free time in Yerevan. Nevertheless, the tour manager Hasmik was attentive and open to feedback, which made the experience feel personalized. I’d recommend this tour for those looking to immerse themselves in Armenia’s rich history and stunning landscapes.

Uncover Armenia’s tour was an incredible journey through a country full of history and beauty. The visit to the 9th-century monasteries Sevanavank and Hayravank provided deep insights into Armenia’s past. The guides were knowledgeable and friendly, and the tour manager was particularly helpful in accommodating our specific needs. Vardan and Tazo are very knowledgeable and kindfull. The only downside was that some of the days were quite packed, which made the trip feel a bit rushed at times. Despite this, the overall experience was fantastic, and I would certainly recommend this tour for anyone interested in exploring Armenia’s rich culture and stunning scenery.

Our trip to Armenia was mostly wonderful. The tour covered all the major highlights. However, we encountered a minor issue when the air conditioner had problems in the hotel room. Thankfully, our tour manager Hayku was incredibly efficient and resolved the problem quickly. This kind of service really stood out and made our experience smooth despite the hiccup. Overall, the tour was well-organized, and the scenic views were stunning. I would definitely recommend this tour for its overall quality and the professionalism of the tour team.

I just returned from the "Highlights of Armenia and Georgia" tour organized by Arara Tour, and I can't recommend it highly enough! From start to finish, everything was impeccably arranged. Hasmik was incredibly attentive and made sure my 10-day journey was tailored to my interests, including visits to the stunning Echmiadzin Cathedral and the ancient Armenian Stonehenge. Our guide, Mr. Artur, was exceptional—his knowledge of both Armenia and Georgia was impressive, and he was always ready with interesting facts and helpful tips. The only hiccup was a minor mix-up with our hotel reservation in Tbilisi, but Hasmik promptly resolved the issue, and we were upgraded to a better room! I’m already planning my next trip with Arara Tour!

"Dear Hasmik,
We wanted to take a moment to express our sincere gratitude for organizing our recent trip to the Caucasus. It was truly a trip of a lifetime, and your support and meticulous attention to detail played a huge role in making it such a success.
From the very beginning, you were incredibly helpful, accommodating, and flexible, adjusting to our needs and ensuring that everything was just right. Your responsiveness was exceptional, and it gave us great peace of mind knowing that we could count on you every step of the way.
The highlight of our journey was the time we spent with the driver-guides in Georgia and Armenia. Makho in Georgia and Artur in Armenia were absolutely outstanding. Their deep knowledge, warm personalities, and enthusiasm for their countries made our experience so much richer. We couldn’t have asked for better guides.
We also thoroughly enjoyed the restaurant recommendations and the selection of hotels. The dining experiences were fantastic, with each restaurant offering something unique and memorable. The hotels were well-chosen and comfortable, adding to the overall enjoyment of our trip. The only exception was the issue we had with the hotel in Seki, but we appreciate you addressing it.
Regarding our time in Azerbaijan, while we enjoyed the experience, we felt that having a driver-guide who spoke English would have been more effective than having a separate driver and guide. It would have made communication smoother and enhanced our overall experience in the country.
One minor hiccup we encountered was during our time in Seki. Despite agreeing on an early departure time, both the driver and guide showed up late, which was a bit frustrating given the long day ahead. However, we do appreciate that throughout the rest of the trip, our guides ensured that we were always on time and well-prepared.
Special thanks go to Hasmik, who was an absolute rock star. Her dedication and commitment to ensuring our trip was flawless did not go unnoticed.
Overall, we couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out, and we would not hesitate to recommend your services to anyone looking to explore the Caucasus or any other destination. Thank you once again for your hard work and for making our trip so special.
You are more than welcomed to use this email and it's contents for sharing on your website or other social media.
Thank you."

This tour truly bridged the East and West, revealing the unique, yet similar aspects of these two fascinating countries.
Our journey through Armenia and Georgia was an exceptional exploration of rich history and culture. The deep historical roots of these countries were evident as we wandered through Tbilisi’s lively streets and visited Mtskheta, the heart of Georgia’s religious heritage. Discovering the Georgian wine region in Kakheti and savoring the local wines was an unforgettable experience, connecting us to centuries of winemaking tradition.
In Armenia, we were captivated by the ancient charm of Yerevan and the majestic beauty of Lake Sevan. The historical sites and the unique architecture told stories of a nation with a profound legacy.
Both countries offered incredible cuisine, from Georgian khachapuri and khinkali to Armenian dolma. The flavors and dishes were a delicious reflection of their rich cultural backgrounds.
